Benson's generation conjecture for cochains on compact Lie groups

About 3 years old · traced to

Let GG be a compact Lie group with a normal maximal torus TT, let C∗GC_*G be the chain DG algebra of GG, and let C∗BGC^*BG be its cochain algebra. Write Db(C∗BG)\mathcal{D}^b(C^*BG) for the bounded derived category and D(C∗BG)\mathcal{D}(C^*BG) for the derived category.

Benson's generation conjecture. The category Db(C∗BG)\mathcal{D}^b(C^*BG) is generated as a thick subcategory of D(C∗BG)\mathcal{D}(C^*BG) by the objects Hom⁡C∗G(k,X)\operatorname{Hom}_{C_*G}(k,X) for XX in Db(C∗G)\mathcal{D}^b(C_*G).

This is one of two generation conjectures transported from finite groups to compact Lie groups. The supplied text does not state whether it has been proved or disproved.
