Abstract: In the paper {em The inversion formulae for automorphisms of polynomial algebras and differential operators in prime characteristic}, J. Pure Appl. Algebra 212 (2008), no. 10, 2320-2337, see also arXiv:math/0604477, Vladimir Bavula states the following Conjecture: (BC) Any endomorphism of a Weyl algebra (in a finite characteristic case) is a monomorphism. The purpose of this preprint is to prove BC for $A_1$, show that BC is wrong for $A_n$ when $n>1$, and prove an analogue of $BC$ for symplectic Poisson algebras.
