The variety-invariance conjecture for Bol–Moufang homology
Let and be identities defining the same variety of quasigroups, let be any quasigroup in that variety, and let be a substitution. Write for the second Bol–Moufang homology associated with the identity and substitution . Variety-invariance conjecture. The homology depends only on the variety containing and on ; specifically, for all ,
Moreover, when is a group, any identity defining the variety of groups yields the usual group homology of . The authors verify independence from the particular identity in their examples, but state that the general claim has not been proved; the conjecture also proposes agreement with ordinary group homology in the group case.
