Freeness conjecture for the sharp transform of the planar binary tree algebra

About 17 years old · traced to

Let PBT{\bf PBT} be the Loday–Ronco algebra of planar binary trees, and let PBT♯{\bf PBT}^\sharp denote its ♯\sharp-transform. For each tree TT with at least two nodes and empty right subtree at the root, let PT♯{\bf P}_T^\sharp be the corresponding sharp-transformed element.

Freeness conjecture. The algebra PBT♯{\bf PBT}^\sharp is free over the set PT♯{\bf P}_T^\sharp, where TT runs over trees with at least two nodes and such that the right subtree of the root is empty.

The claim describes a proposed free generating set for the sharp-transformed planar binary tree algebra. The supplied text gives no evidence that this assertion has been resolved.
