The logarithmic multipermutation-level conjecture for square-free solutions

From papers

Suppose (X,r)(X,r) is a nondegenerate square-free multipermutation solution of finite order nn, and let mpl(X)\mathop{\mathrm{mpl}}(X) denote its multipermutation level.

Logarithmic multipermutation-level conjecture. One has

mpl(X)<log2n.\mathop{\mathrm{mpl}}(X)<\log_2 n.

This conjecture gives a logarithmic upper bound on the multipermutation level in terms of the order of the solution, refining the expectation that finite square-free solutions have controlled retraction complexity. The source attributes it to the more recent conjecture cited as T08ini; no resolution is stated in the supplied text.
