Infinite-order TQFT representation conjecture for pseudo-Anosov mapping classes

From papers

Let ϕ\phi be a pseudo-Anosov mapping class of a surface of arbitrary genus, and let kk denote the level of the associated TQFT representation. Infinite-order TQFT representation conjecture. The matrices representing ϕ\phi in TQFT have infinite order for all but finitely many values of kk. The question concerns whether TQFT representations detect the dynamical complexity of pseudo-Anosov mapping classes at all but finitely many levels; the source provides no resolution of this assertion.
