Positive-Hausdorff-dimension fixed-point density conjecture for binary tree groups

Less than 1 year old · traced to

Let TT be the complete infinite rooted binary tree, and let G≤Aut⁡(T)G\leq\operatorname{Aut}(T) be level-transitive if it acts transitively on every level. Define its Hausdorff dimension by

h(G)=lim⁡n→∞log⁡2(#Gn)log⁡2(#Aut⁡(Tn)),h(G)=\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}\frac{\log_2(\#G_n)}{\log_2(\#\operatorname{Aut}(T_n))},

where TnT_n is the complete binary rooted tree of height nn and GnG_n is the image of GG in Aut⁡(Tn)\operatorname{Aut}(T_n). Let F(G)\mathcal{F}(G) be the fixed-point density introduced in the surrounding discussion. Positive-Hausdorff-dimension fixed-point density conjecture. If GG is level-transitive and h(G)>0h(G)>0, then

F(G)=0.\mathcal{F}(G)=0.

The conjecture would simplify the computation of the corresponding fixed-point densities for arboreal groups; no proof or disproof is given in the source.
