The prequiver form conjecture for knots-quivers correspondence

Let KK be a knot admitting the standard knots-quivers correspondence, so that the node variables satisfy xixx_i\sim x. Let QQ be a quiver corresponding to KK, with one spectator node and kk paired blocks. Prequiver form conjecture. There exists a unique such quiver QQ whose adjacency matrix has the block form

C=(0F1F2Fk\F1TD1U12U1k\F2TU12TD2U2k\FkTU1kTU2kTDk),C=\begin{pmatrix}0&F_1&F_2&\cdots&F_k\F_1^T&D_1&U_{12}&\cdots&U_{1k}\F_2^T&U_{12}^T&D_2&\cdots&U_{2k}\vdots&\vdots&\vdots&\ddots&\vdots\F_k^T&U_{1k}^T&U_{2k}^T&\cdots&D_k\end{pmatrix},

where

Fi=[Cˇ0iCˇ0i],Di=[CˇiiCˇiiCˇiiCˇii+1],F_i=\begin{bmatrix}\check C_{0i}&\check C_{0i}\end{bmatrix},\qquad D_i=\begin{bmatrix}\check C_{ii}&\check C_{ii}\check C_{ii}&\check C_{ii}+1\end{bmatrix}, Uij=[CˇijCˇijCˇij+1Cˇij+1],CˇmnZ.U_{ij}=\begin{bmatrix}\check C_{ij}&\check C_{ij}\check C_{ij}+1&\check C_{ij}+1\end{bmatrix},\qquad \check C_{mn}\in\mathbb{Z}.

The block structure encodes the spectator node and paired nodes associated with sl1\mathfrak{sl}_1 cancellation; the source gives no resolution evidence.
