Uniqueness of the eta partner for an image of the zeta map

Let aa and bb be relatively prime positive integers. Let Da,b\mathfrak{D}_{a,b} be the set of (a,b)(a,b)-Dyck paths, and let

Z={(ζ(P),η(P)):PDa,b}Da,b×Da,b\mathfrak{Z}=\{(\zeta(P),\eta(P)):P\in\mathfrak{D}_{a,b}\}\subseteq\mathfrak{D}_{a,b}\times\mathfrak{D}_{a,b}

be the image of the pair (ζ,η)(\zeta,\eta). Uniqueness conjecture for eta partners. For every (a,b)(a,b)-Dyck path QQ in the image of ζ\zeta, there exists at most one (a,b)(a,b)-Dyck path RR such that (Q,R)Z(Q,R)\in\mathfrak{Z}. Together with the preceding theorem in the source, this would imply bijectivity of the zeta map; the source gives no resolution status.
