Dubrovin–Liu–Yang–Zhang conjecture on the standard form of tau-symmetric deformations

Let a tau-symmetric deformation of the Riemann hierarchy be given. A normal Miura transformation is a Miura transformation of the type defined in the source that preserves the relevant normalized form. Write Ku~=xK_{\widetilde u}=\partial_x for the transformed operator, let P2g\mathcal P_{2g}' denote the source's set of partitions, and write u~λ\widetilde u_\lambda for the corresponding jet monomials. Dubrovin–Liu–Yang–Zhang conjecture. There exists a unique normal Miura transformation uu~(u,ε)u\mapsto\widetilde u(u_*,\varepsilon) such that the transformed hierarchy is in standard form:

Ku~=x,K_{\widetilde u}=\partial_x, h1[u~]=(u~36+ε2au~x2+g2ε2gλP2gaλu~λ)dx,\overline h_1[\widetilde u]=\int\left(\frac{\widetilde u^3}{6}+\varepsilon^2a\widetilde u_x^2+\sum_{g\ge2}\varepsilon^{2g}\sum_{\lambda\in\mathcal P_{2g}'}a_\lambda\widetilde u_\lambda\right)dx,

where a,aλCa,a_\lambda\in\mathbb C. If a=0a=0, then aλ=0a_\lambda=0 for all λ\lambda. If a0a\ne0, then all coefficients aλa_\lambda are uniquely determined by aa and the coefficients a(2g)a_{(2^g)}, g2g\ge2. This is a normal-form and classification claim for tau-symmetric deformations; the source gives no resolution.
