The stability conjecture for the infinity-Laplacian and H-type deviation

From papers

Let G\mathbb{G} be a step two Carnot group with horizontal metric ghg_h. Denote by Σ\Sigma the horizontal layer in exponential coordinates,

Σ={g=exp(x+t)G:t=0}.\Sigma = \{\mathord{\tt g}=\exp({\mathbf x}+{\mathbf t})\in\mathbb{G}:{\mathbf t}=0\}.

Let uu be the fundamental solution for the sub-Laplacian L\mathcal L, let QQ be the homogeneous dimension, and set N=u1/(2Q)N=u^{1/(2-Q)}. Here δ(G)\delta(\mathbb{G}) denotes the H-type deviation of G\mathbb{G}, and L\mathcal L_\infty is the horizontal infinity-Laplacian. The stability conjecture.

supgΣN(g)(LN)(g)δ(G)2.\sup_{\mathord{\tt g}\in\Sigma}\left|N(\mathord{\tt g})(\mathcal L_\infty N)(\mathord{\tt g})\right|\simeq \delta(\mathbb{G})^2.

This conjecture proposes that the failure of the fundamental solution's gauge to be infinity-harmonic quantitatively measures the deviation of the group from H-type. The source gives no resolution, so the conjecture remains open.
