Realizability conjecture for volume growth, escape time and martingale dimensions

Let b1b2b1 b2 and dmd_m satisfy

b1[1,),b2[2,),dmN,b1 \in [1,\infty),\qquad b2 \in [2,\infty),\qquad d_m \in \mathbb{N},

and

2b2b1+1,1dm2b1b2.2 \leq b2 \leq b1+1,\qquad 1 \leq d_m \leq \frac{2b1}{b2}.

Here b1b1 is the volume growth exponent, b2b2 is the escape time exponent, and dmd_m is the martingale dimension, also called the martingale index. Realizability conjecture. For every such b1b1, b2b2, and dmd_m, there exists a symmetric diffusion process on a metric measure space satisfying a full sub-Gaussian heat kernel estimate with volume growth exponent b1b1, escape time exponent b2b2, and martingale dimension (or index) dmd_m. The conjecture concerns which triples of exponents and dimensions can occur; the supplied text gives no resolution, so its status is open.
