The non-degeneracy conjecture for the realizable generic Enriques surface Y158Y_{158}

Let Y158Y_{158} be the realizable (τ,τ)(\tau,\overline{\tau})-generic Enriques surface associated with the family indexed by 158158, and let nd(Y158)\mathrm{nd}(Y_{158}) denote its non-degeneracy invariant. Non-degeneracy conjecture. The realizable (τ,τ)(\tau,\overline{\tau})-generic Enriques surface Y158Y_{158} satisfies

nd(Y158)=9.\mathrm{nd}(Y_{158})=9.

Theorem cited in the source gives the lower bound nd(Y158)9\mathrm{nd}(Y_{158})\geq 9, while computational experiments with large finite samples of smooth rational curves consistently yield the value 99. No proof of the equality is given, so the conjecture remains open.
