Conjectured formula for the uniformly dense Turán density of stars

From papers

For each integer kk with 4k104\le k\le 10, let SkS_k denote the star 33-graph considered in the paper, and let πU(Sk)\pi_{\mathrm{U}}(S_k) be its uniformly dense Turán density. Conjecture for stars.

πU(Sk)=k25k+7(k1)2for all 4k10.\pi_{\mathrm{U}}(S_k)=\frac{k^2-5k+7}{(k-1)^2}\quad\text{for all }4\le k\le 10.

The paper proves the same formula for k11k\ge 11 and, for the related notion represented by πV\pi_{\mathrm{V}}, for k5k\ge 5; the uniformly dense cases 4k104\le k\le 10 remain conjectural.
