Conjecture 1: If a compact Riemannian manifold satisfies finite supremum of W2 over Gamma infinity squared, then some metric in its conformal class has positive weighted sigma2-curvature; in particular, a compact four-dimensional gradient Ricci soliton satisfies 3 chi(M4) greater than 2 tau(M4).

[Discussion #4 literature review, 2026-09-30] **solved (exponential)**. A. L. Mazzucato (OWR 37/2015, p. 2157) asks whether the optimal decay of the mix-norm under a uniform-in-time H² (palinstrophy) bound on the velocity is polynomial or exponential. It cannot be faster than exponential, since an H² bound implies the ...

Petty's conjecture remains unresolved in its general form; related projection-body inequalities and special cases do not settle the conjecture described in the record.

For every convex body $K\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ with $d\geq3$, is the affine invariant $P(K)=|\Pi K|/|K|^{d-1}$ minimized exactly by ellipsoids?
Petty's conjecture: for every convex body K\subseteq R^d with d\geq3, the affine invariant P(K)=|\Pi K|/|K|^{d-1} is minimized exactly by ellipsoids.

The official Oberwolfach report passage was checked directly; the mathematical question, definitions, and notation were restored without adding a stronger claim.

Comparison of Algebraic and Analytic Modular Forms
For a holomorphic modular form viewed both as an algebraic global section of $\omega^{\otimes k}$ on a modular curve and as an analytic function on the upper half-plane, how can these two points of view be identified or related?

The extracted text is only a broad transition question about passing between two viewpoints and does not specify a mathematical assertion whose truth can be checked; under the triage rule it remains open.

Grothendieck–Katz p-Curvature Conjecture
If $X$ is a smooth variety over $\mathbb C$ and an integrable connection $(E,\nabla)$ has trivial $p$-curvature at every closed point of a nonempty open of definition, must $(E,\nabla)$ have finite monodromy, equivalently be trivialized by a finite étale cover?

Harmonic Metrizations of Line Bundles
For any line bundle $M$ on $X$, does there exist a metrization $\overline{M}$, unique up to scale, whose curvature $c_1(\overline{M})$ is $\omega$-harmonic, meaning it is $\omega$-bounded and satisfies $c_1(\overline{M})\omega^{n-1}=\lambda(M)\omega^n$?
