The minimal-discrepancy Nash valuation conjecture for 3-fold terminal singularities

Let (X,p)(X,p) be a 3-fold terminal singularity with Gorenstein index m1m\geq 1. An exceptional prime divisor EE over XX has discrepancy a(E,X)a(E,X), and its associated valuation is denoted by valE\operatorname{val}_{E}. A Nash valuation is a valuation arising from an irreducible component of the space of arcs through the singular point. The minimal-discrepancy Nash valuation conjecture. Every exceptional prime divisor EE over XX with minimal discrepancy, namely a(E,X)=1ma(E,X)=\frac{1}{m}, induces a Nash valuation valE\operatorname{val}_{E} of XX. This is the weaker version proposed alongside the discrepancy-at-most-one conjecture and is intended to characterize Nash valuations associated with minimal discrepancy over general 3-fold terminal singularities.
