Torsion-freeness conjecture for algebraic cobordism of Rost motives

Let GG be a connected compact Lie group and let G{\mathbb G} be a GkG_k-torsor. Let R(G)R({\mathbb G}) be the associated Rost motive, let Rˉ(G)\bar R({\mathbb G}) denote its split form, and let BPBP^* be the coefficient ring of Brown–Peterson theory. The restriction map is induced by passage from the torsor to its split form.

Algebraic cobordism torsion-freeness conjecture.

resΩ:Ω(R(G))Ω(Rˉ(G))BPP(y)res_{\Omega}:\Omega^*(R({\mathbb G}))\to \Omega^*(\bar R({\mathbb G}))\subset BP^*\otimes P(y)

should be injective; equivalently, Ω(R(G))\Omega^*(R({\mathbb G})) should be torsion free. This extends the injectivity verified in the paper for several spin groups and Rost motives. The statement is presented as a conjecture for connected compact Lie groups in general.
