Witt-realization conjecture for UMTCs at prescribed central charge

Let \EuScriptC\EuScript{C} be a unitary modular tensor category (UMTC), and let cc be a central charge satisfying

c\EuScriptCtop=c(mod8).c_{\EuScript{C}}^{\mathrm{top}}=c\pmod 8.

Witt-realization conjecture. There is at least one unitary vertex operator algebra (VOA) VV of central charge cc such that ModV\operatorname{Mod}_V is a UMTC Witt equivalent to \EuScriptC\EuScript{C}. The conjecture weakens exact realization of a prescribed UMTC to realization of its Witt-equivalence class, subject to the topological central-charge congruence.
