The generalized E6-subfactor conjecture on distinguishing lens spaces

Let L(7,1)L(7,1) and L(7,2)L(7,2) be the indicated lens spaces, and suppose there exists a generalized E6E_6-subfactor with group symmetry G=Z/7ZG=\mathbb{Z}/7\mathbb{Z}. Let the Turaev–Viro–Ocneanu invariant from this subfactor be the associated invariant of a 3-manifold. Generalized E6E_6-subfactor conjecture. The invariant distinguishes L(7,1)L(7,1) and L(7,2)L(7,2); equivalently, their associated invariant values are different. The conjecture is motivated by the preceding computations for generalized E6E_6-subfactors with other group symmetries, which give equal values for the pairs tested, and predicts that the as-yet hypothetical G=Z/7ZG=\mathbb{Z}/7\mathbb{Z} case detects these lens spaces.
