Invariance of sign stability under mutation-loop representations

Let b3i:titib3_i:t_i\to t'_i (i=1,2)(i=1,2) be edge paths in the exchange graph b4Ib4_I representing the same mutation loop d[b31]b2=d[b32]b2d\rm[b3_1]_{b2}=d\rm[b3_2]_{b2}. A path is sign-stable when it has the sign-stability property defined for mutation paths. Invariance conjecture. The path b31b3_1 is sign-stable if and only if b32b3_2 is. This would show that sign stability is an invariant of the mutation loop rather than of its chosen representation sequence; the paper reports that many experiments support the claim, but no proof or counterexample is known.
