Classification of two-dimensional leaves in quiver Coulomb branches

Let v\mathbf{v} be a dimension vector, let \GLv\GL_{\mathbf{v}} be the corresponding product of general linear groups, and let Nv\mathbf{N}_{\mathbf{v}} be the associated representation. Assume that M(\GLv,Nv)\mathcal{M}(\GL_{\mathbf{v}},\mathbf{N}_{\mathbf{v}}) has no zero-dimensional leaves. Conditions (i) and (ii) are the two classes described in the preceding discussion: condition (i) is the modified goodness condition that every monopole operator not of the form πv\pi_{\mathbf{v}} has degree at least 22, while condition (ii) consists of the affine-support multiples of the primitive imaginary coroot and the Jordan-quiver cases with v>1v>1. Two-dimensional-leaf classification conjecture. The Coulomb branch M(\GLv,Nv)\mathcal{M}(\GL_{\mathbf{v}},\mathbf{N}_{\mathbf{v}}) has a 22-dimensional leaf if and only if one of conditions (i) or (ii) is satisfied, and in each case there is a unique such leaf. In particular, if M(\GLv,Nv)\mathcal{M}(\GL_{\mathbf{v}},\mathbf{N}_{\mathbf{v}}) is not weakly conical, then it has no two-dimensional leaves. The conjecture would yield the cited classification of isolated symplectic leaves; the source derives the result in the weakly conical setting but leaves the general case open.
