Noetherianity conjecture for fixed subgroups of untwisted automorphisms

Let AΓA_\Gamma be a right-angled Artin group, let UAut(AΓ)\mathcal{U}\mathsf{Aut}(A_\Gamma) denote its untwisted automorphism group, and for an automorphism φ\varphi define

Fix(φ)={gAΓφ(g)=g}.\operatorname{Fix}(\varphi)=\{g\in A_\Gamma\mid \varphi(g)=g\}.

Order these fixed subgroups by inclusion.

Noetherianity conjecture. The set

{Fix(φ)φUAut(AΓ)}\{\operatorname{Fix}(\varphi)\mid \varphi\in\mathcal{U}\mathsf{Aut}(A_\Gamma)\}

contains no infinite chain under inclusion.

This is a descending-chain or ascending-chain finiteness assertion for fixed subgroups arising from untwisted automorphisms. The supplied text gives no resolution status or further evidence, so the conjecture remains open in the database.
