Existence of infinite cubulable groups with fixed-point property (FWn)(\mathrm{FW}_n)

About 3 years old · traced to

A group is cubulable if it acts properly and cocompactly on a median graph. For n≥1n\geq 1, (FWn)(\mathrm{FW}_n) denotes the fixed-point property for actions on median graphs of cubical dimension at most nn. Existence conjecture. For every n≥1n\geq 1, there exists an infinite cubulable group satisfying (FWn)(\mathrm{FW}_n) with no proper finite-index subgroup. The surrounding discussion gives constructions of cubulable groups with fixed-point properties and explains why controlling finite-index subgroups is difficult; the existence assertion is left as an open problem.
