Finiteness conjecture for chains of definable subgroups of abelian interpretable groups
Let be an abelian interpretable group. By Corollary~, there is an increasing chain of \textit{dfg} subgroups with , whose successive quotients have dp-rank ; when the chain terminates, the final quotient is definably compact and has \textit{fsg}. Finiteness conjecture. The ordinal is finite. Therefore, any abelian interpretable group sits in a short exact sequence
where has \textit{dfg} and has \textit{fsg} and is definably compact. The conjecture is automatic for definable groups because the dimensions of the successive subgroups strictly increase, but it remains unclear for general interpretable groups.
