Rump's retraction conjecture for quasilinear cycle sets
Rump's retraction conjecture for quasilinear cycle sets
Let be a finite, nondegenerate cycle set whose underlying set is an abelian group, and call it quasilinear when its operation satisfies
Call retractable if distinct elements induce the same left translation.
Rump's retraction conjecture. If is a quasilinear cycle set with , then is retractable.
The paper's stated goal is to prove this conjecture, using left braces, the cabling method, and an extended permutation group. Thus the conjecture is solved in the source paper.
