The finite-set correspondence conjecture for anyonic SL(N,C)SL(N,\mathbb C) flat connections

Let M3=[{(pk,qk)}k=1n]M_3=[\{(p_k,q_k)\}_{k=1}^n] be a Seifert manifold, and let R{(pk,qk)}k=1nN\mathcal R^N_{\{(p_k,q_k)\}_{k=1}^n} be the finite set defined by the integer labels satisfying the displayed inequalities and sum condition in the source. Consider the space of anyonic SL(N,C)SL(N,\mathbb C) flat connections on M3M_3.

Finite-set correspondence conjecture. The connected components of the anyonic SL(N,C)SL(N,\mathbb C) flat-connection space are in one-to-one correspondence with the points of

R{(pk,qk)}k=1nN.\mathcal R^N_{\{(p_k,q_k)\}_{k=1}^n}.

The claim would turn the classification of connected components into a finite combinatorial problem. The authors report numerical evidence for it and defer the numerical investigations to future work.
