Conjecture on bimodules of maximal amenable subalgebras of free group factors

From papers

Let t(1,]t\in(1,\infty] and let NL(Ft)N\subseteq L(\mathbb{F}_{t}) be a maximal amenable von Neumann subalgebra. Regard the following as NN-NN bimodules, where L2(N)L2(N)L^{2}(N)\otimes L^{2}(N) is taken with infinitely many copies: The maximal-amenable bimodule conjecture.

L2(L(Ft))L2(N)[L2(N)L2(N)].L^{2}(L(\mathbb{F}_{t}))\ominus L^{2}(N)\leq [L^{2}(N)\otimes L^{2}(N)]^{\oplus\infty}.

This conjecture proposes that the part of the standard bimodule of the free group factor orthogonal to a maximal amenable subalgebra is contained in infinitely many copies of the coarse NN-NN bimodule. It is motivated by the authors' results on free Araki–Woods and free group factors; the excerpt does not state whether it has been proved or disproved.
