Classification of orbits under curvature flow for homogeneous topological cloths

From papers

Let Gn\mathcal{G}^n be the class of embedded graphs in Rn\mathbb{R}^n. Suppose GGnG\in\mathcal{G}^n is an embedded graph with a homogeneous topological cloth and a well-defined time evolution under curvature flow G(t)G(t). Classification of orbits conjecture. Either G(t)G(t) converges topologically to σm\sigma_m for some mnm\leq n, or it converges to a stationary state. This conjecture predicts that homogeneous topological cloths have only universal or stationary long-time behavior; the source notes that it would not be surprising if σn=σm\sigma_n=\sigma_m for all m,n3m,n\geq3, but gives no resolution status.
