Phillips' radius of comparison conjecture for tensor products with C(X)

Let AA be a stably finite unital C*-algebra and let XX be a compact metric space. The radius of comparison, denoted by rc{\operatorname{rc}}, measures comparison in the Cuntz semigroup of a C*-algebra. Phillips' conjecture.

rc(A)rc(C(X)A)12dim(X)+rc(A)+1.{\operatorname{rc}}(A)\leq {\operatorname{rc}}\left(C(X)\otimes A\right)\leq \frac{1}{2}\dim(X)+{\operatorname{rc}}(A)+1.

This conjecture proposes upper and lower bounds for the radius of comparison of the tensor product C(X)AC(X)\otimes A, relating it to the covering dimension of XX and the radius of comparison of AA. It extends the known commutative estimate for C(X)C(X) and is motivated by the role of comparison theory as a noncommutative dimension theory; its resolution is not specified in the source.
