Bernardara–Marcolli–Tabuada's noncommutative nilpotence conjecture

Let A\mathcal{A} be a smooth and proper dg category, and let K0(A)K_0(\mathcal{A}) be the Grothendieck group of its category of compact objects. Let nil\sim_{\otimes_{\tiny\text{nil}}} denote the equivalence relation induced by tensor-nilpotence and let num\sim_{\otimes_{\tiny\text{num}}} denote the equivalence relation induced by numerical triviality. Bernardara–Marcolli–Tabuada's noncommutative nilpotence conjecture. One has

K0(A)/nil=K0(A)/num.K_0(\mathcal{A})/_{\sim_{\otimes_{\tiny\text{nil}}}}=K_0(\mathcal{A})/_{\sim_{\otimes_{\tiny\text{num}}}}.

This is the noncommutative analogue of Voevodsky's nilpotence conjecture, replacing algebraic cycles by the Grothendieck group of a smooth proper dg category. The paper invokes this conjecture in its study of noncommutative K3 surfaces; the supplied text does not establish a general resolution.
