Totaro's Chow–Brown–Peterson comparison conjecture

Let GG be a complex linear algebraic group, let pp be a prime, and suppose that BP(BG)BP^*(BG) is concentrated in even degrees. For each ii, consider the localized cycle map

CHi(BG)(p)BP2i(BG)BPZ(p).CH^i(BG)_{(p)}\to BP^{2i}(BG)\otimes_{BP^*}\mathbb{Z}_{(p)}.

Totaro's conjecture. Under these hypotheses, this map is an isomorphism. The conjecture compares the Chow ring with Brown–Peterson cohomology after localization. No resolution is supplied in the given text, so it remains open here.
