The ideal-prime conjecture for convexity

From papers

A 6-net is a simplicial triangulation of the 22-sphere with maximum degree at most 66. A net is prime if every 33-cycle bounds a face. An ideal neoplatonic is an equilateral ideal hyperbolic polyhedron, and Δ(σ,)\Delta(\sigma,\infty) denotes the ideal neoplatonic realization associated to a 66-net σ\sigma.

Ideal-prime conjecture. If the 66-net σ\sigma is prime, its ideal neoplatonic realization Δ(σ,)\Delta(\sigma,\infty) is convex.

The source proves this assertion for prime 66-nets with v50v\leq50, including uniqueness of the convex realization. Its validity for arbitrary prime 66-nets remains open in the supplied text.
