Vanishing conjecture for stable tree expressions with at least two frozen legs

Let Q=Q[a1,,an]Q=\mathbb{Q}[a_1,\dots,a_n], and let Ωg,nmR(Mg,n+m)QQ\Omega^m_{g,n}\in R^*({\overline{\mathcal{M}}}_{g,n+m})\otimes_{\mathbb{Q}}Q be the class obtained by summing the tree contributions defined above. Here deg\deg denotes the degree in the variables a1,,ana_1,\dots,a_n. Vanishing conjecture. For g0g\geq 0, n0n\geq 0, and m2m\geq 2, one has

degΩg,nm2g2+m.\deg \Omega^m_{g,n}\leq 2g-2+m.

This predicts vanishing of the coefficients above the indicated polynomial degree for stable tree expressions with at least two frozen legs. The supplied text does not state whether the conjecture has been proved or disproved.
