Shalev's probabilistic identity conjecture for finitely generated pro-pp groups

Let GG be a finitely generated pro-pp group. A probabilistic identity is a word ww such that the probability that random elements satisfy ww is positive, and an identity is a word law satisfied by all substitutions from GG.

Shalev's probabilistic identity conjecture. If GG satisfies some probabilistic identity ww, then GG satisfies some identity.

This is one of Shalev's conjectures on the relationship between probabilistic identities, coset identities, and ordinary identities in pro-pp groups. Its status is not specified in the supplied text.
