Robbins Conjecture

The conjecture that the equations for a Robbins algebra, commutativity, associativity, and the Robbins axiom

 !(!(x v y) v !(x v !y))=x,

where !x denotes NOT and x v y denotes OR, imply those for a Boolean algebra. The conjecture was finally proven using a computer (McCune 1997).
