The discontinuity conjecture for free compound Poisson distributions

From papers

Let u u be a probability measure such that u({0})=0 u(\{0\})=0. The free infinitely divisible measure πν{\bm \pi} \boxtimes \nu is absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure, and its density is discontinuous at 00; more strongly, the density tends to infinity at 00.

Discontinuity conjecture. The preceding assertion holds for every such probability measure u u.

The converse to the sufficient condition established earlier in the paper would characterize the critical case in which the free Lévy measure has total mass one and the semicircular component vanishes. The source explicitly says that this converse remains open.
