Log-concavity conjecture for marginals of the sine process
Consider a determinantal point process on the real line with correlation kernel
Label its points by so that . The sine-process marginal conjecture. For every sub-collection , its marginal density on is log-concave. The conjecture is motivated by the log-concavity of marginals for uniform Gelfand–Tsetlin functions and the identification of bead-process marginals with the sine process; the source presents it as unresolved.

Progress summary
The conjecture remains open: no public proof, counterexample, or substantive advance has been found.
The conjecture asks whether every finite selection of points from the sine process has a log-concave joint density. The directly relevant source, from October 2024, presents the question as unresolved; no proposer or later resolution is recorded.
Current status (as of September 2026): The conjecture remains open, with no publicly recorded proof, counterexample, or substantive progress.
