Bounded packing conjecture for subgroups of virtually polycyclic groups

About 20 years old · traced to

Let PP be a virtually polycyclic group. A subgroup H≤PH\leq P has bounded packing in PP if, for every D>0D>0, there is a bound on the number of distinct left cosets of HH that are pairwise at distance less than DD in the corresponding coset metric.

Bounded packing conjecture for virtually polycyclic groups. Each subgroup of PP has bounded packing in PP.

This conjecture is presented as an expected affirmative result after posing the broader question of whether every subgroup of every solvable group has bounded packing. Its resolution is not given in the supplied text.
