Gaiotto–Johnson-Freyd trivialization conjecture for TQFT target categories

About 3 years old · traced to

Let Σn−1Vectfd\Sigma^{n-1}\mathsf{Vect}^{fd} and Σn−1sVectfd\Sigma^{n-1}\mathsf{sVect}^{fd} be the stable suspensions used as codomains for bosonic and fermionic fully extended TQFTs, respectively. Their maximal ∞\infty-groupoids carry canonical homotopy SO(n)SO(n)- and Spin(n)Spin(n)-actions. Gaiotto–Johnson-Freyd conjecture. The canonical homotopy SO(n)SO(n)-action, respectively Spin(n)Spin(n)-action, on these maximal ∞\infty-groupoids is canonically trivializable. This is the same conjecture as the preceding attributed formulation, restated in the paper's summary; its resolution is not given in the source.
