Finite-diameter conjecture for the entropy metric on outer space

Let r4r\geq 4 and consider the outer space of rank-rr free groups equipped with the entropy metric. Finite-diameter conjecture. The entropy metric has finite diameter on the outer space for all ranks r4r\geq 4. This conjecture concerns the global geometry of the entropy metric; the source presents it as an unproved conjecture motivated by the incompleteness and completion results discussed above.
