The degree-\b2n\b11 consequence conjecture for n-ary intermolecular recombination

Let nn-ary intermolecular recombination be an nn-ary operation satisfying complete symmetry in degree nn. A polynomial identity has degree 2n12n-1 when each of its terms involves two applications of the operation.

Degree-2n12n-1 consequence conjecture. Every polynomial identity satisfied by nn-ary intermolecular recombination in degree 2n12n-1 is a consequence of complete symmetry in degree nn.

The ternary case was verified in degree 77, and the degree-99 computation described in the paper shows that all identities there follow from the degree-77 ternary recombination identity. The general case remains open.
