Equivariant Milnor map conjecture

From papers

Let TkT^k be the kk-torus and let Z2k\mathbb{Z}_2^k be its real subgroup. Write Ω2U,Tk\Omega^{U,T^k}_{2*} and Ω2U,Z2k\Omega^{U,\mathbb{Z}_2^k}_{2*} for the unitary equivariant bordism groups, and ΩO,Z2k\Omega^{O,\mathbb{Z}_2^k}_{*} for the unoriented equivariant bordism group. Equivariant Milnor map conjecture. Whenever GG is either TT or Z2\mathbb{Z}_2, there exists an equivariant Milnor map

μGk:Ω2U,GkΩO,Z2k\mu^{G^k}: \Omega^{U,G^k}_{2*} \to \Omega^{O,\mathbb{Z}_2^k}_{*}

reducing the dimension by a half, defined as the real points of smooth complex generators, which is moreover surjective. This conjecture proposes an equivariant generalization of the Milnor map and would relate unitary equivariant bordism to unoriented equivariant bordism through real points of smooth complex generators. The source presents preliminary results in this direction but does not establish the conjecture.
