Spectral comparison conjecture for positively curved Euclidean weighted manifolds

From papers

Let (Rn,g,μ)(\mathbb{R}^n,g,\mu) be a connected weighted manifold satisfying CD(ρ,)CD(\rho,\infty) with ρ>0\rho>0, and let λk(Rn,g,μ)\lambda_k(\mathbb{R}^n,g,\mu) denote its ordered eigenvalues. Spectral comparison conjecture. Question 1 has a positive answer for any (Rn,g,μ)(\mathbb{R}^n,g,\mu) satisfying CD(ρ,)CD(\rho,\infty) with ρ>0\rho>0; equivalently,

k1λk(Rn,g,μ)λk(Rn,,γρn).\forall k\geq 1\qquad \lambda_k(\mathbb{R}^n,g,\mu)\geq \lambda_k(\mathbb{R}^n,\lvert\cdot\rvert,\gamma^n_\rho).

The conjecture restricts the general spectral comparison question to manifolds diffeomorphic to Euclidean space, after spheres provide counterexamples in the unrestricted setting. Its resolution is not supplied in the source.
