Relative permutational Boone--Higman conjecture

Let GSG\curvearrowright S be an action, let ker(GS)\ker(G\curvearrowright S) denote its kernel, and let SVGSV_G be the associated twisted Brin--Thompson group. A group Γ\Gamma sharply embeds in (G,N)(G,N) when (Γ,{1})(\Gamma,\{1\}) embeds in the normal pair (G,N)(G,N).

Relative permutational Boone--Higman conjecture. Let Γ\Gamma be a finitely generated group with solvable word problem. Then there exists a group GG with a type [A2][\operatorname{A}_2] action on a set SS such that Γ\Gamma sharply embeds in (G,ker(GS))(G,\ker(G\curvearrowright S)), and hence Γ\Gamma sharply embeds in the finitely presented relatively simple group SVGSV_G.

This combines the relative embedding condition with the permutation-action formulation. It is presented as a conjectural strengthening related to the classical and relative Boone--Higman conjectures.
