Wormhole conjecture for punctured W-surfaces
Wormhole conjecture for punctured W-surfaces
Let be a W-surface and let be the new W-surface obtained by the extremal P-resolution surgery, with and . Suppose that the MMP is run on .
Wormhole conjecture. The MMP on the new W-surface finishes in a minimal model and requires only flips; that is, both punctured W-surfaces live in the same moduli space.
This is the punctured-surface formulation of the wormhole idea: preserving the numerical invariants and using only flips should keep the two surfaces in one moduli space. The supplied text does not state whether this has been proved or disproved.
