The periodic-order bound conjecture for finite orbits in spherical Artin–Tits groups

Let GG be an Artin-Tits group of spherical type, let C(G)\mathcal C(G) be its curve graph, and let αG\alpha\in G. Suppose a vertex of C(G)\mathcal C(G) has a finite orbit under α\alpha. Periodic-order bound conjecture. The bound on the size of this finite orbit predicted by the finite-orbit bound conjecture is the maximal order of a periodic element in GG. The source presents this as a refinement of the finite-orbit bound conjecture; it proves the preceding bound for braid groups but gives no resolution of this sharper assertion for general spherical Artin–Tits groups.
