Stochastic Bessel operator hard-edge singular-value conjecture

Let Jaβ\mathcal{J}_{a}^{\beta} denote the stochastic Bessel operator in its original form, and let J~aβ\tilde{\mathcal{J}}_{a}^{\beta} denote its Liouville normal form. Consider type (i) and type (ii) boundary conditions, and let kk be a positive integer. Stochastic Bessel hard-edge conjecture. Under type (i) boundary conditions, the kkth least singular value of the stochastic Bessel operator follows the kkth hard edge distribution with parameters β\beta and aa. Under type (ii) boundary conditions, the hard edge distribution has parameters β\beta and a+1a+1. This is true both for the original form, Jaβ\mathcal{J}_{a}^{\beta}, and for Liouville normal form, J~aβ\tilde{\mathcal{J}}_{a}^{\beta}. The conjecture is motivated by the finite-difference schemes for these operators and the convergence of the corresponding small singular values to hard-edge distributions.
