The 27–29 geodesic networks conjecture for Liouville quantum gravity

From papers

Fix γ(0,2)\gamma \in (0,2) and consider γ\gamma-Liouville quantum gravity (γ\gamma-LQG). Let Stark\operatorname{Star}_k denote the set of points joined to the origin by at least kk geodesics, and let the network graphs be the geodesic networks under consideration. Geodesic networks conjecture. There are either 2727, 2828, or 2929 network graphs that appear in γ\gamma-LQG: the 2727 networks that appear in the directed landscape, together with the network in Figure (a) if dim(Star4)1\dim(\operatorname{Star}_4) \ge 1 and the network in Figure (b) if dim(Star4)3/2\dim(\operatorname{Star}_4) \ge 3/2. Geodesic networks occur with dimensions given by the formulas referenced in the source. This is a speculative prediction based on star-dimension heuristics; the required star dimensions are not known for general γ\gamma-LQG, so the claim remains open.
