Delta-invariant conjecture for the exceptional index-two family

Let SnS_n be a quasi-smooth del Pezzo hypersurface with weighted-projective quintuple

(a0,a1,a2,a3,d)=(1,1,n+1,n+1,2n+2).(a_0,a_1,a_2,a_3,d)=(1,1,n+1,n+1,2n+2).

Delta-invariant conjecture. For every nn, one has

δ(Sn)=1,\delta(S_n)=1,

so SnS_n is K-semistable; moreover, SnS_n admits an orbifold Kähler–Einstein metric.

The source notes that the delta invariant is already known to satisfy δ(Sn)1\delta(S_n)\leq 1 for this family and presents equality, together with metric existence, as the expected conclusion. The claim remains open in the supplied material.
