Hong and Won's conjecture on the alpha-invariant of a del Pezzo surface

About 10 years old · traced to

Let SS be a smooth del Pezzo surface and let AA be an ample divisor on SS of one of the specified P2\mathbb{P}^2-, F1\mathbb{F}_1-, or P1×P1\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^1-types. Let α(S)\alpha(S) denote the classical alpha-invariant, let α(S,A)\alpha(S,A) denote the alpha-invariant associated with AA, and let αc(S,A)\alpha_c(S,A) be the explicitly defined piecewise quantity for the type of AA. Hong and Won's conjecture. If

α(S)=1,\alpha(S)=1,

then

α(S,A)=αc(S,A).\alpha(S,A)=\alpha_c(S,A).

The conjecture predicts that, when the classical alpha-invariant equals 11, the alpha-invariant associated with the ample divisor AA is given by the stated combinatorial formula. The supplied text does not indicate whether the conjecture has been resolved.
