Description
### What is the conjecture
A proof for the Gaussian Moments Conjecture (Conjecture 1.1 from Derksen et al. arXiv:1506.05192, 2015), specialized to dimension 2, was recently announced (https://x.com/swe_acc/status/2079881074826420446). That original paper (arXiv:1506.05192) only proved the homogeneous two-variable case. A recent counterexample (not part of this formalization attempt) rules out every dimension greater than or equal to 3 (Long, arXiv:2607.18186).

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading Conjecture 1.1 in Derksen et al., arXiv:1506.05192, together with the issue's dimension-2 specialization and the repository's existing formalized conjectures. No file or test is named; done means adding the specialized Gaussian Moments Conjecture as an accepted formal statement in the repository.
