Contractibility conjecture for the principal stability component of P3\mathbb P^3

Let Stab(P3)\mathrm{Stab}(\mathbb P^3) be the space of Bridgeland stability conditions on P3\mathbb P^3, and let Stab(P3)Stab(P3)\mathrm{Stab}^{\dagger}(\mathbb P^3)\subset\mathrm{Stab}(\mathbb P^3) be the principal connected component containing the image of ΣΨ\Sigma_{\Psi}. Let StabGeo(P3)\mathrm{Stab}^{\mathrm{Geo}}(\mathbb P^3) and StabAlg(P3)\mathrm{Stab}^{\mathrm{Alg}}(\mathbb P^3) denote the geometric and algebraic stability-condition subspaces, respectively.

Contractibility conjecture. The principal connected component is the union of the geometric and algebraic stability conditions and is contractible:

Stab(P3)=StabGeo(P3)StabAlg(P3).\mathrm{Stab}^{\dagger}(\mathbb P^3)=\mathrm{Stab}^{\mathrm{Geo}}(\mathbb P^3)\bigcup\mathrm{Stab}^{\mathrm{Alg}}(\mathbb P^3).

The conjecture concerns the homotopy type of a principal component of the stability-condition space; contractibility would describe how the geometric and algebraic loci together account for this component. The source presents it as an open conjecture inspired by prior work on stability-condition spaces.
