Smooth centralizer property conjecture for finite orthogonal groups
Let be a finite subgroup of . Say that has the amphichiral linear centralizer property (LCP) if its centralizer in contains an element outside , and say that has the amphichiral smooth centralizer property (SCP) if its centralizer in contains an orientation-reversing diffeomorphism. Smooth centralizer property conjecture. If has SCP, then it has LCP. Equivalently, if the centralizer of in is not contained in , then it contains an element of . This is an equivalent centralizer formulation relevant to the main conjecture. Since the source gives no resolution beyond the stated low-dimensional result, the general assertion remains open.
