Hello, Seymore. I'm not aware of such abreviations, but I am aware of the existance of stative verbs in Esperanto. All you need to do is attach a verbal suffix to an adjectival root. For example:
La birdo belas =La birdo estas bela = The bird is beautiful. -is, -os, etc. can also be used in thsis way, thus eliminating the need for an adjective in the sentence, since the stative verb stands in its place.
I hope this helps.

there was a vola pug' comic I read once that had a bunch of mice talking to each other, and they used " 'stas or 'stis" to mean "estas" or "estis." I'm not sure if this is a common thing, though it does seem logical to do if someone is talking really fast, kinda like how people meld "de" and "la" together (which is written "de l' " btw).
then again, I suppose they were trying to make the rats seem, well, lower class in the comic so they may have just done that to muss up their speech like a poverse, homeless esperantist might do.

Wow, seymour, I had exactly the same thought to abbreviate est- as 't-... but sadly, things as basic as est- seem to be set in stone. Besides, the naturalists (ie people who think that an IAL should look like a European language, or at least that all roots should come unmodified from some natural language) wouldn't like it.
From what I've seen, the verb forms of adjectives are not predictable; you can't necessarily add an 's' to an adjective an make a statal verb. However, statal verbs are the most common type of verb formed from an adjective.
