Extremal-ray generation conjecture for the algebra of conformal blocks

Let Mp(r,0)\mathrm{M}_{\mathbf{p}}(r,0) be the moduli space of parabolic bundles, let Eff(Mp(r,0))\mathrm{Eff}(\mathrm{M}_{\mathbf{p}}(r,0)) denote its effective cone, and let V\mathbb{V}^{\dagger} be the algebra of conformal blocks. Since the effective cone is polyhedral, it has finitely many extremal rays; the first integral point of an extremal ray means its nonzero integral point closest to the origin. Extremal-ray generation conjecture. The algebra V\mathbb{V}^{\dagger} is generated by the set of effective divisors whose numerical classes are the first integral points of the extremal rays of

Eff(Mp(r,0)).\mathrm{Eff}(\mathrm{M}_{\mathbf{p}}(r,0)).

The conjecture proposes an explicit generating set for the finitely generated algebra of conformal blocks, refining the finite-generation result established in the paper. The source gives no resolution of this proposed generating-set statement.
