Discreteness interval conjecture for complex reflection triangle groups

Let ρt(p,q,r)\rho_t(p,q,r) be the one-parameter family of representations of the (p,q,r)(p,q,r)-reflection triangle group by complex reflections, with pqrp\leq q\leq r and ρ0\rho_0 stabilizing a real slice. Let Ip,Iq,IrI_p,I_q,I_r be the reflections in the sides opposite p,q,rp,q,r, respectively, and define

WA=IpIrIqIr,WB=IpIqIr.W_A=I_pI_rI_qI_r,\qquad W_B=I_pI_qI_r.

A parameter tt is a discrete embedding parameter when ρt(p,q,r)\rho_t(p,q,r) is discrete and injective. Discreteness interval conjecture. The set of such parameters is the closed interval consisting precisely of those tt for which neither ρt(WA)\rho_t(W_A) nor ρt(WB)\rho_t(W_B) is elliptic. This proposed description is the basic critical-interval picture for these deformation families; the source presents it as conjectural, with boundary behavior governed by the two specified words.
