Zakharevich's perfectness conjecture for scissors automorphism groups
Let be the -dimensional Euclidean space and let be a polytope. The abelianisation of a group is its quotient by its commutator subgroup. Zakharevich's conjecture. For every polytope with , the scissors automorphism group is perfect, that is,
This is equivalent to the vanishing of the groups in even dimensions , which are unknown according to the source. The conjecture gives a group-theoretic formulation of that expected vanishing.
