The constancy conjecture for the regulator on the Lie coalgebra

From papers

Let L(F)\mathbb L(F) be the Lie coalgebra of multiple polylogarithms over a field FF, with cobracket δ\delta, and let Lsymb(C)\mathbb L^{\operatorname{symb}}(\mathbb C) be its symbolic version. Consider the map

r ⁣:Lsymb(C)R,r\colon\mathbb L^{\operatorname{symb}}(\mathbb C)\to\mathbb R,

which sends [x1,,xd]n1,,nd[x_1,\dots,x_d]_{n_1,\dots,n_d} to Ln1,,nd(x1,,xd)\mathcal L_{n_1,\dots,n_d}(x_1,\dots,x_d) and [x]0[x]_0 to log(x)\log(|x|). Constancy conjecture. If αL(C(t))\alpha\in\mathbb L(\mathbb C(t)) satisfies δ(α)=0\delta(\alpha)=0, then r(α(t))=0r(\alpha(t))=0 is constant in tt. This predicts that elements in the kernel of the cobracket give constant real-valued regulators under specialization, generalizing the preceding result for the corresponding regulator map. The source provides no resolution status for this conjecture.
