The Burnside semigroup stability conjecture

Let

B(m,n)=Atm=tm+ntA+\mathcal{B}(m,n)=\langle A\mid t^m=t^{m+n}\quad\forall t\in A^+\rangle

be a Burnside semigroup, and for sB(m,n)s\in\mathcal{B}(m,n) let SsJS^{\mathscr{J}}_s be the finite semigroup formed by the elements J\mathscr{J}-above ss, together with zero \square. Let KR(SsJ,A)\mathsf{KR}(S^{\mathscr{J}}_s,A) be its Karnofsky–Rhodes expansion. Burnside stability conjecture. The pair (KR(SsJ),A)(\mathsf{KR}(S^{\mathscr{J}}_s),A) satisfies the stability condition McKR(S,A)=(S,A)\mathsf{Mc}\circ\mathsf{KR}(S,A)=(S,A). The conjecture proposes stability under both the Karnofsky–Rhodes and McCammond expansions for these finite pieces of Burnside semigroups. The supplied text gives no evidence of resolution.
