Conjecture on maximal finite subgroups of cactus groups
Let be the cactus group on strands. A finite group embeds into precisely when it embeds into an iterated permutational wreath product of copies of of the form
where satisfy . Here, for a group and , denotes , with the right factor reversing the factors. Maximal finite subgroup conjecture. A finite group embeds into the cactus group if and only if it embeds into
for some satisfying . This would give an explicit algebraic description of finite subgroups, beyond the fact that they are -groups, using the median geometry of cactus groups.
