The Bottman–Wehrheim correspondence conjecture for the earring tangle

About 6 years old · traced to

Let P∗P^* be the pillowcase, let usu_s and vδv_\delta be the immersed Lagrangian correspondences associated to the earring tangle and its model, respectively, and let AA be a δ\delta-arc-type curve. Bottman–Wehrheim correspondence conjecture. For sufficiently small δ\delta, the immersions usu_s and vδv_\delta are Hamiltonian regularly homotopic in (P∗)−×P∗(P^*)^-\times P^* for all sufficiently small s>0s>0. Moreover, usu_s is transverse to every δ\delta-arc-type curve and sends each such curve to a figure eight curve. This would strengthen the preceding proposition from homology figure eight curves to figure eight curves and supply the geometric input needed for the earring correspondence.
