Carvajal–Rojas–Schwede–Tucker conjecture on positivity of the limit F-signature

Let (R,m)(R,\mathfrak{m}) be a KLT singularity essentially of finite type over C\mathbb{C}. For every sufficiently large prime pp, let sp(R)\mathscr{s}_p(R) denote the FF-signature of a reduction of RR to characteristic pp. Carvajal–Rojas–Schwede–Tucker's conjecture. There is a constant C>0C>0, independent of pp, such that sp(R)>C\mathscr{s}_p(R)>C for all sufficiently large pp, equivalently

lim infpsp(R)>0.\liminf_{p\to\infty}\mathscr{s}_p(R)>0.

This conjecture concerns uniform positivity of FF-signatures in characteristic-pp reductions of KLT singularities. It is known for toric, finite quotient, quadric, diagonal hypersurface, full flag, and reductive quotient singularities, while the general case remains open.
