The stable homeomorphism conjecture in dimension n,SHC (n), says that every orientation preserving homeomorphism of Sn is stable, i.e. can be written as the composition of homeomorphisms, each of which are the identity on some open set. This is equivalent to the homeomorphism being isotopic to the identity [6]. Call a homeomorphism k-stable if it is isotopic to a homeomorphism which is the identity on Sk ⊂ Sn.
