Hazrat's shift-equivalence conjecture for Cuntz–Krieger and Leavitt path algebras

Let AA and BB be two finite essential matrices, and let AA and BB be shift equivalent (SE) when they are shift equivalent as nonnegative integer matrices. Denote by OA\mathcal{O}_A and OB\mathcal{O}_B the Cuntz–Krieger graph C*-algebras, with canonical gauge actions γA\gamma^A and γB\gamma^B, and by LAL_A and LBL_B the associated Leavitt path algebras. The algebras LAL_A and LBL_B are graded Morita equivalent when they are Morita equivalent through equivalences preserving the grading.

Hazrat's conjecture. The following are equivalent:

  1. AA and BB are SE.
  2. OA\mathcal{O}_A and OB\mathcal{O}_B are stably isomorphic in a way preserving their gauge actions γA\gamma^A and γB\gamma^B.
  3. LAL_A and LBL_B are graded Morita equivalent.

This conjecture seeks a converse to Krieger's result that gauge-action-preserving stable isomorphism of the Cuntz–Krieger graph C*-algebras implies shift equivalence, while also asserting the corresponding equivalence with graded Morita equivalence of Leavitt path algebras. The supplied text does not state whether the conjecture has been resolved.
