The sphere-spectrum V-completion conjecture

About 7 years old · traced to

Let Set⁡≅fin\operatorname{Set}^{\mathrm{fin}}_{\cong} be the category of finite sets and bijections, let K~(Set⁡≅fin)\widetilde{K}(\operatorname{Set}^{\mathrm{fin}}_{\cong}) denote its reduced algebraic KK-theory spectrum with Verschiebung filtration, and let SS denote the sphere spectrum. The sphere-spectrum V-completion conjecture. There is a weak equivalence of spectra

holim⁡j K~(Set⁡≅fin)/Vj≃TR⁡(S),\operatorname{holim}_j\,\widetilde{K}(\operatorname{Set}^{\mathrm{fin}}_{\cong})/V^j\simeq \operatorname{TR}(S),

lifting the isomorphism

lim←⁡jK0(Set⁡fin)/Vj⟶W(Z).\varprojlim_j K_0(\operatorname{Set}^{\mathrm{fin}})/V^j\longrightarrow W(\mathbb{Z}).

This is presented as an easier related conjecture, and remains unproved in the source.
