Subexponential-growth horofunction-boundary orbit conjecture

Let Γ\Gamma be a Cayley graph, and let the size of its ball of radius rr be bounded by

Cexp(Crα)C \exp(Cr^\alpha)

for some C>0C>0, some α<12\alpha<\tfrac12, and every rNr\in\mathbb{N}. The horofunction boundary of Γ\Gamma carries the underlying group's natural action.

Subexponential-growth finite-orbit conjecture. The horofunction boundary of Γ\Gamma contains a finite orbit for the underlying group action.

This is presented as a logically weaker conjecture than the polynomial-growth finite-orbit conjecture and is motivated by the connection between Busemann points, geodesics, and growth. The source does not establish it.
