Larson–Larson–Vogt intersection-class conjecture for transmission loci

Let \cHg,k,2\cH_{g,k,2} denote the relevant Hurwitz space, and let \cMg,2\cM_{g,2} denote the moduli space of twice-marked curves. For a transmission permutation τ\tau, let Wτ(C,p,q)W^\tau(C,p,q) be the associated transmission locus, let invk(τ)\operatorname{inv}_k(\tau) be its expected codimension, let N(τ)N(\tau) be the number of reduced words for ιχττ\iota_{-\chi_\tau}\tau, and let Θ\Theta denote the relevant theta class.

Larson–Larson–Vogt intersection-class conjecture. All statements of Larson–Larson–Vogt's Theorem 1.2 should generalize from splitting loci to transmission loci of a general point in \cHg,k,2\cH_{g,k,2}, or in \cMg,2\cM_{g,2} when k=0k=0. In particular,

[Wτ(C,p,q)]=N(τ)invk(τ)!Θinvk(τ).[W^\tau(C,p,q)] = \frac{N(\tau)}{\operatorname{inv}_k(\tau)!}\Theta^{\operatorname{inv}_k(\tau)}.

Moreover, at any point of \cHg,k,2\cH_{g,k,2}, Wτ(C,p,q)W^\tau(C,p,q) should support this intersection class.

The source says that the formula is already known when k=0k=0, while the case k2k\geq 2 is the primary open case and may be approachable by adapting the methods of Larson–Larson–Vogt.
