K-polystability conjecture for rank-2 Fano threefolds of degree 28

Let XX be the smooth Fano threefold obtained by blowing up a smooth quadric threefold QP4Q\subset\mathbb{P}^4 along the smooth twisted rational quartic curve C4C_4, so that Pic(X)Z2\operatorname{Pic}(X)\cong\mathbb{Z}^2 and (KX)3=28(-K_X)^3=28. The quadric QQ is equipped with the induced SL2(C)\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})-action. K-polystability conjecture. The smooth Fano threefold XX is K-polystable if and only if the quadric QQ is GIT-polystable with respect to the SL2(C)\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})-action. The conjecture proposes a precise correspondence between K-polystability of these Fano threefolds and GIT-polystability of their defining quadrics; the supplied source does not indicate that it has been resolved.
