Universal identity between refined Mochizuki and Vafa–Witten formulas

About 8 years old · traced to

For integers (β1,β2,β3,β4)(\beta_1,\beta_2,\beta_3,\beta_4) and v≥0v\geq0, let Fv(β1,β2,β3,β4,y)F_v(\beta_1,\beta_2,\beta_3,\beta_4,y) and Gv(β1,β2,β3,β4,y)G_v(\beta_1,\beta_2,\beta_3,\beta_4,y) be the universal functions defined in the source from the conjectural rank-three Vafa–Witten formula and the strong form of Mochizuki's formula. Universal identity conjecture. If β1≡β2(mod2)\beta_1\equiv\beta_2\pmod 2, 0≤v≤β1−3β2+4β40\leq v\leq\beta_1-3\beta_2+4\beta_4, β3≥β4−3\beta_3\geq\beta_4-3, and β3≥−1\beta_3\geq-1, then

Fv(β1,β2,β3,β4,y)=Gv(β1,β2,β3,β4,y).F_v(\beta_1,\beta_2,\beta_3,\beta_4,y)=G_v(\beta_1,\beta_2,\beta_3,\beta_4,y).

This conjecture asserts agreement of the two universal constructions beyond the range directly supplied by geometric examples. The source gives no resolution.
