The Sylow-versality conjecture for finite group actions

About 15 years old · traced to

Let GG be a finite constant group, let XX be a GG-variety, and let GpG_p be a Sylow pp-subgroup of GG.

Sylow-versality conjecture. If XX is GpG_p-versal for every prime pp, then XX is GG-versal.

Every versal GG-variety is pp-versal for every prime, but the converse is not generally true; this conjecture asks whether versality for all Sylow subgroups is nevertheless sufficient for versality for the whole group.
