Gizatullin's automorphism conjecture for complements of smooth cubic surfaces

About 6 years old · traced to

Let SS be a smooth cubic surface in P3\mathbb P^3. Gizatullin's automorphism conjecture. Every automorphism of the affine variety P3∖S\mathbb P^3\setminus S is induced by an automorphism of P3\mathbb P^3; equivalently,

Aut⁡(P3∖S)=Aut⁡(P3,S).\operatorname{Aut}(\mathbb P^3\setminus S)=\operatorname{Aut}(\mathbb P^3,S).

This is a folklore conjecture concerning automorphisms of affine complements; the source later relates it to results on cylindrical complements, but does not state a resolution here.
