The positive-characteristic decomposition conjecture for W-topologies

From papers

Let KK be a perfect field of positive characteristic, and let τ\tau be a WnW_n-topology on KK. Positive-characteristic decomposition conjecture. The topology τ\tau is generated by nn independent V-topologies. This would imply the positive-characteristic case of the valuation-type conjecture, which says that the canonical topology on an unstable dp-finite field is a V-topology. The source notes that the claim is false in characteristic 00, may hold in positive characteristic, and is known for W2W_2-topologies in odd characteristic.
