Multi-Bubble Isoperimetric Conjecture in Gaussian space

Let Gn\mathbb{G}^n denote Gaussian space, and let Ωk+1[Gn]\Omega^{k+1}[\mathbb{G}^n] be a standard simplicial kk-bubble, meaning a (k+1)(k+1)-partition obtained by translating a centered simplicial partition of Rn\mathbb{R}^n. Let Vγn(Ω)V_{\gamma^n}(\Omega) be its Gaussian volume vector, and let Δ(k)[1]\Delta^{(k)}[1] be the admissible region of volume vectors with total mass 11. Multi-Bubble Isoperimetric Conjecture. For all 2kn2 \leq k \leq n, a standard simplicial kk-bubble uniquely minimizes total Gaussian perimeter among all kk-clusters Ω\Omega on Gn\mathbb{G}^n of prescribed Gaussian volume Vγn(Ω)=vintΔ(k)[1]V_{\gamma^n}(\Omega) = v \in \operatorname{int} \Delta^{(k)}[1]. This is the Gaussian analogue of the Euclidean, spherical, and hyperbolic multi-bubble problem; the two-dimensional cases are established, whereas the higher-dimensional cases remain open.
