Completeness conjecture for Conway and umbral K3 twining genera
Let be a nonlinear sigma model with symmetry group , let be its co-invariant lattice, and let denote the corresponding set of Conway or umbral twining functions for a Niemeier lattice . Completeness conjecture for K3 twining genera. There exists at least one Niemeier lattice such that can be embedded in , , and, for every , the twining genus coincides with an element of . Equivalently, for each nonlinear sigma model, all physical twining genera should be contained in for some Niemeier lattice. The conjecture is supported by known geometric and Landau--Ginzburg examples and by consistency with parity, but remains open.
