Nielsen's obstruction conjecture for second-order B-spline Gabor frames

Let Q2=Q1Q1Q_2=Q_1*Q_1, where Q1(x):=χ[1/2,1/2](x)Q_1(x):=\chi_{[-1/2,1/2]}(x), and let G(Q2,a,b)\mathcal{G}(Q_2,a,b) denote the associated Gabor system. Nielsen's conjecture. The Gabor system G(Q2,a,b)\mathcal{G}(Q_2,a,b) is not a frame for

a=12m,b=2k+12,k,mN,k>m,ab<1,gcd(4m,2k+1)=1.a=\dfrac{1}{2m},\qquad b=\dfrac{2k+1}{2},\qquad k,m\in\mathbb{N},\quad k>m,\quad ab<1,\quad \gcd(4m,2k+1)=1.

This is a specific obstruction to the frame property of the second-order B-spline, and the source states that the conjecture is proved in the paper.
