Local non-rigidity conjecture for Clifford-Klein forms of nilpotent Lie groups

About 10 years old · traced to

Let GG be a 1-connected nilpotent Lie group, H⊂GH \subset G a closed subgroup, and Γ⊂G\Gamma \subset G a non-trivial discrete subgroup. Let R(Γ,G,H)\mathcal{R}(\Gamma,G,H) denote the space of representations associated with Clifford-Klein forms of G/HG/H. An element is locally rigid if its corresponding Clifford-Klein form admits no nontrivial sufficiently small deformation. Local non-rigidity conjecture. No elements of R(Γ,G,H)\mathcal{R}(\Gamma,G,H) are locally rigid. This conjecture asserts that Clifford-Klein forms in the nilpotent case are never locally rigid when the discrete subgroup is non-trivial; its status is stated in the source as unsolved.
