Castravet–Tevelev's hypertree conjecture for extremal divisors

Let M0,n\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,n} be the moduli space of stable nn-pointed genus-zero curves, and let DΓD_\Gamma be the divisor associated with an irreducible hypertree Γ\Gamma of order at most nn. Castravet–Tevelev's hypertree conjecture. Every extremal ray of

Eff(M0,n)\operatorname{Eff}(\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,n})

is either a boundary divisor or the divisor DΓD_\Gamma of an irreducible hypertree Γ\Gamma of order at most nn. This is an optimistic converse to the construction of hypertree divisors and predicts a complete description of the extremal rays of the effective cone.
