Conjecture on realizing arbitrary-genus symplectic leaves

From papers

Let kNk\in\mathbb{N}. Consider the family of Poisson brackets described by, with UU chosen appropriately and V=0V=0, and let the resulting symplectic leaves be the corresponding surfaces.

Arbitrary-genus symplectic-leaf conjecture. For every integer kNk\in\mathbb{N}, an appropriate choice of UU produces a sample of symplectic leaves that are topologically Riemann surfaces of genus kk, with optionally one or two boundary components.

This conjecture proposes that the freedom in the function UU allows the topology of symplectic leaves to realize arbitrary genus, extending the examples with one- and two-punctured surfaces described above. The supplied text gives no evidence of resolution.
