Categorical Finiteness Conjecture for skein categories

Let GG) be a reductive group, let Σ\Sigma be a closed compact surface, and let SkCatG(Σ)\mathrm{SkCat}_G(\Sigma) denote the GG-skein category at a generic value of the quantization parameter. Categorical Finiteness Conjecture. The abelian category SkCatG(Σ)-mod\mathrm{SkCat}_G(\Sigma)\textrm{-mod} admits a compact projective generator. This conjecture categorifies the finite-dimensionality of skein modules and is known for all closed surfaces when G=SL2G=\mathrm{SL}_2; the general case remains open.
