The diameter conjecture for one-vertex random Belyi surfaces

From papers

Let SnOS_n^O be the random surface in the BM model, and let S~nO\widetilde{S}_n^O denote this surface conditioned on having a single vertex. Let S~nC\widetilde{S}_n^C be the compactified version of S~nO\widetilde{S}_n^O. The notation diam\operatorname{diam} denotes diameter, and (P)\xrightarrow{(P)} denotes convergence in probability. The one-vertex diameter conjecture. As nn\to\infty,

diam(S~nC)lognn(P)1.\frac{\operatorname{diam}(\widetilde{S}_n^C)}{\log n}\xrightarrow[n\to\infty]{(P)}1.

The conjecture predicts that conditioning on a single vertex removes the separated high-degree vertices responsible for the 2logn2\log n diameter scale in the unconditioned model. The source gives no resolution of this conditional diameter asymptotic.
