Precise statement
Campbell, Distel, Gollin, Harvey, Hendrey, Hickingbotham, Mohar and Wood conjectured that every graph of degree-$d$ polynomial growth embeds into the strong product of $d$ trees of linear growth and a bounded clique. False for $d = 4$: a counterexample built from the discrete Heisenberg group.
