The quarter-distance isomorphism conjecture for Moufang 2-loops

Let L=(G,)L=(G,\circ) and M=(G,)M=(G,*) be Moufang 22-loops on the same set GG of order nn, and define their distance by

d(,)={(a,b)G×G:abab}.d(\circ,*)=\left|\{(a,b)\in G\times G: a\circ b\ne a*b\}\right|.

Quarter-distance isomorphism conjecture. If d(,)<n2/4d(\circ,*)<n^2/4, then LL and MM are isomorphic. The analogous assertion is known for groups, and the paper presents the bound as the smallest possible distance for distinct Moufang 22-loops; no proof is given for Moufang 22-loops.
