The spanning conjecture for the sets of bounded-genus surfaces

Let A(n)A(n) be the space defined by the two-dimensional topological theory, and let Am(n)\mathscr{A}^m(n) be the set of surface diagrams whose connected components satisfy the genus bound encoded by mm. Spanning conjecture. The set Am(n)\mathscr{A}^m(n) spans A(n)A(n).

The claim would identify these bounded-genus surface diagrams as a spanning family for A(n)A(n). The supplied context proves linear independence for generic parameters but does not establish the spanning assertion or give evidence that it has been resolved.
