The quasi-isometric restriction conjecture for linear semidirect products

From papers

Let Γ\Gamma be a finitely generated group, and let ρ\rho be a linear representation of Γ\Gamma on Rn\mathbf{R}^n. Equip RnρΓ\mathbf{R}^n\rtimes_\rho\Gamma and Rnρ(Γ)\mathbf{R}^n\rtimes\overline{\rho(\Gamma)} with word lengths associated to compact generating subsets, and restrict these word lengths to the respective copies of Rn\mathbf{R}^n. Quasi-isometric restriction conjecture. The canonical homomorphism

RnρΓRnρ(Γ)\mathbf{R}^n\rtimes_\rho\Gamma \longrightarrow \mathbf{R}^n\rtimes\overline{\rho(\Gamma)}

is a quasi-isometry when restricted to Rn\mathbf{R}^n. This question arises in the study of the metric geometry of semidirect products associated with generalized Baumslag–Solitar groups; only partial results are available in the source.
