McIver–Neumann conjecture on the enumeration of finite groups

Let f(n)f(n) be the number of isomorphism classes of groups of order nn, and let λ\lambda be the number of prime divisors of nn, counted with multiplicities. McIver–Neumann conjecture.

f(n)n(227+ϵ)λ2f(n) \leq n^{(\frac{2}{27}+\epsilon)\lambda^2}

where ϵ0\epsilon \to 0 as λ\lambda \to \infty.

This conjecture concerns the asymptotic number of isomorphism classes of finite groups of a given order and is motivated by results on the enumeration of finite pp-groups. The supplied source does not state whether the conjecture has been resolved.
