Extremal Sylow p-subgroups conjecture for p-singular families of general linear groups

From papers

Let pNp\in\mathbb{N} be prime, let qq be a power of pp, and let GLn,q\mathrm{GL}_{n,q} denote the general linear group over the field with qq elements. A family is pp-singular if its elements have order divisible by pp. A Sylow pp-subgroup is a subgroup of maximal order among the pp-subgroups, and a double-translate is obtained by multiplying it on the left and right by fixed elements of GLn,q\mathrm{GL}_{n,q}. Extremal Sylow pp-subgroups conjecture. For all n2n\geq 2, the Sylow pp-subgroups and their double-translates are the extremal pp-singular families of GLn,q\mathrm{GL}_{n,q}. The conjecture proposes the analogue of the symmetric-group extremal result for finite general linear groups; the supplied text gives no resolution.
