Decay of correlations conjecture for the massless hierarchical Liouville model

Let νL,m,ϵLv\nu_{L,m,\epsilon}^\mathrm{Lv} be the measure defined by the discrete Gaussian free field Liouville density, and let ϕνL,m,ϵLv\phi\sim\nu_{L,m,\epsilon}^\mathrm{Lv}. For fCc(R2)f\in C_c^\infty(\mathbb R^2) and xR2x\in\mathbb R^2, write fx()=f(x)f_x(\cdot)=f(\cdot-x). There is a family of events (Ax,r,L)xR2,r0,L>0(\mathcal A_{x,r,L})_{x\in\mathbb R^2,\,r\geq0,\,L>0} such that

Decay of correlations conjecture. The events satisfy νL,m,ϵLv(Ax,r,L)1\nu_{L,m,\epsilon}^\mathrm{Lv}(\mathcal A_{x,r,L})\to1 as first ϵ0\epsilon\to0, then m0m\to0, and finally LL\to\infty, and, for every f,gCc(R2)f,g\in C_c^\infty(\mathbb R^2),

This conjectures decay of correlations for the massless hierarchical Liouville model in infinite volume after removing the ultraviolet cutoff, the mass, and then the finite-volume scale. The events allow the correlation estimate to be restricted to a high-probability set under the regularized Liouville measure; the source provides no resolution of the conjecture.
