The finitely generated subgroup recognition conjecture for compact manifolds

Let MM and NN be compact connected CpC^p manifolds, and let \Diffcp(M)0\Diff^p_c(M)_0 and \Diffcp(N)0\Diff^p_c(N)_0 denote their groups of compactly supported CpC^p diffeomorphisms diffeotopic to the identity through a compactly supported diffeotopy. The finitely generated subgroup recognition conjecture. MM and NN are CpC^p-diffeomorphic if and only if the sets of isomorphism classes of finitely generated subgroups of \Diffcp(M)0\Diff^p_c(M)_0 and \Diffcp(N)0\Diff^p_c(N)_0 coincide. This conjecture asks whether the collection of finitely generated subgroup types determines a compact connected manifold up to CpC^p-diffeomorphism; the supplied text gives no resolution.
