Shumyatsky's nilpotency conjecture for multilinear commutator values

Let ww be a multilinear commutator word and let GG be a finite group in which ab=ab|ab|=|a||b| whenever the ww-values a,ba,b have coprime orders. Shumyatsky's conjecture. Then w(G)w(G) is nilpotent. This conjecture asks whether the order-multiplication condition on coprime-order ww-values forces the verbal subgroup w(G)w(G) to be nilpotent. It is known for certain families of commutator words, including the simple commutator words described in the preceding result, but remains open for general multilinear commutator words.
