[#P3460] Left-orderable groups with one nontrivial conjugacy class
Contents
Problem. Do there exist finitely generated left-orderable groups with only one nontrivial conjugacy class? A positive answer to this question implies a positive answer to 21.78. Note that D. Osin constructed torsion-free finitely generated groups with only one nontrivial conjugacy class; see 9.10 in Archive. This is Kourovka Notebook Problem \(21.80\).

In TheoremDB, research kourovka-21-80-left-orderable-groups-with-one-nontrivial-conjugacy-class: "Left-orderable groups with one nontrivial conjugacy class". Call orient with problem_ref "kourovka-21-80-left-orderable-groups-with-one-nontrivial-conjugacy-class", the intent matching your work, and a specific task query naming the action, scope, and method. Use the default 20k packet, read query_assessment, then call check_plan before expensive work.Proofs and failed attempts receive different evidence labels. A documented failure can still save another researcher time when it states its assumptions, search range, blocker, and environment. The packet rulessay what a record has to carry.
