The weight-gcd conjecture for tightly constrained convex toric domains

Let XΩX_\Omega be a convex toric domain with weight sequence (c;a1,,as;b1,,bt)(c;a_1,\dots,a_s;b_1,\dots,b_t), and let λ\lambda be the Ω\Omega-perimeter. A convex toric domain is tightly constrained when its capacity function is eventually strictly increasing, equivalently when every sufficiently large positive integer occurs among its ECH capacities. Let YΣ(Ω)Y_{\Sigma(\Omega)} be the toric variety associated to Ω\Omega, and let DΩD_\Omega be its balance divisor.

Weight-gcd conjecture. If

gcd{c,a1,,as,b1,,bt}=1,\operatorname{gcd}\{c,a_1,\dots,a_s,b_1,\dots,b_t\}=1,

then Ω\Omega is tightly constrained.

This conjecture would characterize tight constraint by a simple arithmetic condition on the weight sequence. The paper notes that tight constraint is known when at least one weight equals 11; the general equivalence with the gcd condition remains open.
