The family-stabiliser tree conjecture

At least 5 years old · documented by

Let GG be a group and let F\mathcal{F} be a family of subgroups.

Family-stabiliser tree conjecture. The inequality cd⁡FG⩽1\operatorname{cd}_{\mathcal{F}}G\leqslant 1 holds if and only if GG acts on a tree whose stabilisers generate F\mathcal{F}.

This folklore conjecture generalises the corresponding result for strictly developable thin simple complexes of groups and would characterise Bredon cohomological dimension at most one through actions on trees. Its resolution status is not specified in the source.
