The higher-rank wreath-product non-embeddability conjecture

Let AA be a nontrivial finite abelian group, let Σ\Sigma be an alphabet, and let ΣZ\llbracket \Sigma^\mathbb{Z}\rrbracket denote the topological full group of the full shift. For d2d\geq 2, let AZdA\wr\mathbb{Z}^d be the wreath product of AA by Zd\mathbb{Z}^d.

Higher-rank wreath-product non-embeddability conjecture. If d2d\geq 2, then

AZd≰ΣZ.A\wr\mathbb{Z}^d\not\leq \llbracket \Sigma^\mathbb{Z}\rrbracket.

The preceding theorem rules out move-AAithful actions of Z2\mathbb{Z}^2, so the paper's construction cannot produce AZ2A\wr\mathbb{Z}^2 in this way. It does not exclude other constructions, and the conjecture remains open.
