The Frobenius–Perron dimension conjecture for distinguished nilpotent categories

From papers

Let g\mathfrak{g} be a Lie algebra, let ege\in\mathfrak{g} be distinguished nilpotent, and let Q=Q(e)Q=Q(e) be the finite centralizer of an sl2sl_2-triple associated with ee in the simply connected group GG with Lie(G)=g\operatorname{Lie}(G)=\mathfrak{g}. If the Jordan cell sizes for the adjoint action of ee on g\mathfrak{g} are 2ki+12k_i+1 for iM=M(e)i\in M=M(e), define

Sk(l):=l(2ksin(π/l)sin(2π/l)sin(kπ/l))2.S_k(l):=\frac{l}{\left(2^k\sin(\pi/l)\sin(2\pi/l)\cdots\sin(k\pi/l)\right)^2}.

The distinguished-nilpotent Frobenius–Perron dimension conjecture.** If m=1m=1 or ll is undivisible, then

FPdim(C(g,e,l,q))=Qi=1MSki(l).\operatorname{FPdim}(\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{g},e,l,q))=|Q|\prod_{i=1}^{M}S_{k_i}(l).

This specializes to the stated G2G_2 and C3C_3 examples. The source gives supporting computations and a heuristic explanation, but no general proof; the divisible case for m>1m>1 is explicitly left without a formula.
