Dąbrowski's suspension conjecture for free involutions

Let AA be a unital CC^*-algebra with a free action of Z/2Z\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}. Its unreduced suspension is

ΣA={fC([1,1],A):f(1),f(1)C}.\Sigma A=\{f\in C([-1,1],A):f(-1),f(1)\in\mathbb{C}\}.

The action extends to ΣA\Sigma A by αΣf(t)=α(f(t))\alpha_\Sigma f(t)=\alpha(f(-t)). Dąbrowski's conjecture. There is no Z/2Z\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}-equivariant *-homomorphism

ϕ:AΣA.\phi:A\to\Sigma A.

This conjecture seeks a noncommutative analogue of the Borsuk–Ulam obstruction and was proposed in connection with noncommutative Brouwer fixed point theorems. The source gives no resolution status.
