The Kawazumi–Vespa stable cohomology conjecture for Aut(F_n)

For p,q0p,q\ge0, let Hp,q=Hp(H)qH^{p,q}=H^{\otimes p}\otimes(H^*)^{\otimes q}, and let H\mathcal{H} and E\mathcal{E} be the wheeled PROPs defined from stable twisted cohomology and the corresponding Ext-groups. Let CP0\mathcal{C}_{\mathcal{P}_0^{\circlearrowright}} be the wheeled PROP freely generated by the wheeled completion of the operadic suspension of the non-unital commutative operad. Kawazumi–Vespa's conjecture. For non-negative integers i,p,qi,p,q, and sufficiently large nn, there is an isomorphism of Q[Sp×Sq]\mathbb{Q}[\mathfrak{S}_p\times\mathfrak{S}_q]-modules

Hi(Aut(Fn),Hp,q)={CP0(p,q)(i=pq),0(ipq).H^i(\operatorname{Aut}(F_n),H^{p,q})=\begin{cases}\mathcal{C}_{\mathcal{P}_0^{\circlearrowright}}(p,q)&(i=p-q),\\0&(i\ne p-q).\end{cases}

Equivalently, the stable morphism of wheeled PROPs φ:HE\varphi:\mathcal{H}\to\mathcal{E} is an isomorphism. The source attributes this conjecture to Kawazumi and Vespa; it remains open.
