The higher-dimensional star-shaped Reeb-orbit two-or-infinity conjecture

Let Σ2n1\Sigma^{2n-1} bound a star-shaped domain in R2n\mathbb{R}^{2n}. Higher-dimensional two-or-infinity conjecture. For each such Σ\Sigma,

#T(Σ){n}{}.\#\mathcal{T}(\Sigma)\in\{n\}\cup\{\infty\}.

The dimension-four case is solved by the Hofer–Wysocki–Zehnder result and its later confirmation, but the analogous conjecture for n3n\geq 3 is still widely open.
