The NLS-detection gluing conjecture for graph manifolds

Let WW be a rational homology 33-sphere graph manifold with JSJ tori, and let mm be the number of these tori. For each ii, let [αi][\alpha_i] be a rational slope associated to the corresponding JSJ torus, and write [α]=([α1],[α2],,[αm])[\alpha_*]=([\alpha_1],[\alpha_2],\ldots,[\alpha_m]). The notation [α(i)][\alpha_*^{(i)}] denotes the slope data induced on the iith piece, and NLS detection means the detection property defined earlier in the source. NLS-detection gluing conjecture. The manifold WW is not an L-space if and only if there is an mm-tuple of rational slopes [α][\alpha_*] such that, for every ii, [α(i)][\alpha_*^{(i)}] is NLS detected. This would provide a Heegaard–Floer gluing theorem for rational homology 33-sphere graph manifolds and would reduce the cited L-space conjecture to the non-left-orderable case. The source presents this as a conjecture; its notation and the precise definition of NLS detection depend on the preceding sections.
