Metastable Local Disjunction conjecture

Let D=Ds1DsrD=D^{s_1}\sqcup\ldots\sqcup D^{s_r} be a disjoint union of rr disks, let f:DBdf:D\to B^d be a proper PL map such that fDs1fDsr=f\partial D^{s_1}\cap\ldots\cap f\partial D^{s_r}=\emptyset, and suppose that

rd(s1+s2++sr)+si+3rd\ge (s_1+s_2+\ldots+s_r)+s_i+3

and dsi+3d\ge s_i+3 for each ii. If the map

fr:(Ds1××Dsr)(Bd)r{(x,x,,x)(Bd)r  xBd}f^r:\partial(D^{s_1}\times\ldots\times D^{s_r})\to (B^d)^r-\{(x,x,\ldots,x)\in(B^d)^r\ |\ x\in B^d\}

extends to a continuous map of Ds1××DsrD^{s_1}\times\ldots\times D^{s_r}, Metastable Local Disjunction conjecture. then there is a PL map f:DBd\overline f:D\to B^d such that

f=fonDsrDandfDs1fDsr=.\overline f=f \quad\text{on}\quad D^{s_r}\cup\partial D\quad\text{and}\quad \overline fD^{s_1}\cap\ldots\cap \overline fD^{s_r}=\emptyset.

The claim is presented as one of the paper's conjectures, whose complete proof is the subject of the note; the supplied text does not establish whether it has been resolved.
