Let $F:\Bbb C^n\to\Bbb C^n$ be a polynomial mapping with a non vanishing Jacobian. If the set $S_F$ of non-properness of $F$ is smooth, then $F$ is a surjective mapping. Moreover, the set $S_F$ can not be connected (this is the Nollet-Xavier Conjecture). Additionally, if $n=2$, then the set $S_F$ of non-properness of $F$ cannot be a curve without self-intersections.
In this paper, we study a so-called Condition C1 and a weaker Condition C2. For Druzkowski maps Condition C2 is equivalent to the Jacobian conjecture. Main results obtained: - Stating new equivalent formulations of the Jacobian conjecture. - Formulating some generalisations of the Jacobian conjecture and giving both theoretical and experimental evidences to support them. - Showing Condition C1 holds for a generic matrix of any given rank, is an invariant for a certain group action, and Condition C2 is an invariant for cubic similarity matrices. - Giving one heuristic argument for the truth of …
We first give a new proof and also a new formulation for the Abhyankar-Gurjar inversion formula for formal maps of affine spaces. We then use the reformulated Abhyankar-Gurjar formula to give a more straightforward proof for the equivalence of the Jacobian Conjecture with a special case of the Vanishing Conjecture of (homogeneous) quadratic differential operators with constant coefficients.
We introduce a new method in the attempt to prove the Jacobian conjecture. In the complex dimension 2 case, we apply this method to prove some new results related the Jacobian conjecture.
We prove the equivalence of the Jacobian Conjecture (JC(n)) and the Conjecture on the cardinality of the set of fixed points of a polynomial nilpotent mapping (JN(n)) and prove a series of assertions confirming JN(n).
We give a shorter proof to a recent result by Neuberger, in the real case. Our result is essentially an application of the global asymptotic stability Jacobian Conjecture. We also extend some of the results presented in Neuberger.
Any counterexample to the two-dimensional Jacobian Conjecture gives a rational map from one projective plane to another. We use some ideas of the Minimal Model Program to study the combinatorial structure of a rational surface, that is obtained by resolving this map. Several structural results are proven, revealing a rather orderly structure of the graph of the curves at infinity. We also exhibit and discuss a graph that may lead to a counterexample to the Jacobian Conjecture.
We translate the results of Yansong Xu into the language of~\cite{GGV1}, obtaining nearly the same formulas for the intersection number of Jacobian pairs, but with an inequality instead of an equality.
We present some motivations and discuss various aspects of an approach to the Jacobian Conjecture in terms of irreducible elements and square-free elements.
Jacobian conjectures (that nonsingular implies a global inverse) for rational everywhere defined maps of real n-space to itself are considered, with no requirement for a constant Jacobian determinant or a rational inverse. The birational case is proved and the Galois case clarified. Two known special cases of the Strong Real Jacobian Conjecture (SRJC) are generalized to the rational map context. For an invertible map, the associated extension of rational function fields must be of odd degree and must have no nontrivial automorphisms. That disqualifies the Pinchuk counter examples to the SRJC a…
Let $m \geqslant 6$ be an even integer. In this short note we prove that the Jacobian variety of a quasiplatonic Riemann surface with associated group of automorphisms isomorphic to $C_2^2 \rtimes_2 C_m$ admits complex multiplication. We then extend this result to provide a criterion under which the Jacobian variety of a quasiplatonic Riemann surface admits complex multiplication.
Based on the reduction of degree in polynomial mappings and some known results in algebraic geometry, by introducing the Brouwer degree, a tool from differential topology, algebraic topology and algebraic geometry, we completely prove the Generalized Jacobian conjecture in the field of real numbers, which implies the Generalized complex Jacobian conjecture. Also, for the strong real Jacobian conjecture, we present a newly sufficient and necessary condition.
In this paper we study singularities in arbitrary characteristic. We propose Finite Determination Conjecture for Mather-Jacobian minimal log discrepancies in terms of jet schemes of a singularity. The conjecture is equivalent to the boundedness of the number of the blow-ups to obtain a prime divisor which computes the Mather-Jacobian minimal log discrepancy. We also show that this conjecture yields some basic properties of singularities; e.g. openness of Mather-Jacobian (log) canonical singularities, stability of these singularities under small deformations and lower semi-continuity of Mather-…
We show that for any family of curves over a base scheme of finite type over the prime field $\mathbb F_p$ such that the monodromy is ``maximal'', there exist infinitely many closed points of the base scheme such that the Jacobian of fibre is absolutely simple.
Jacobian conjecture states that if $F:\ \mathbb C^n(\mathbb R^n)\rightarrow \mathbb C^n(\mathbb R^n)$ is a polynomial map such that the Jacobian of $F$ is a nonzero constant, then $F$ is injective. This conjecture is still open for all $n\ge 2$, and for both $\mathbb C^n$ and $\mathbb R^n$. Here we provide a positive answer to the Jacobian conjecture in $\mathbb R^2$ via the tools from the theory of dynamical systems.
In this note, we show that, if the Druzkowski mappings $F(X)=X+(AX)^{*3}$, i.e. $F(X)=(x_1+(a_{11}x_1+...+a_{1n}x_n)^3,...,x_n+(a_{n1}x_1+...+a_{nn}x_n)^3)$, satisfies $TrJ((AX)^{*3})=0$, then $rank(A)\leq 1/2(n+δ)$ where $δ$ is the number of diagonal elements of A which are equal to zero. Furthermore, we show the Jacobian Conjecture is true for the Druzkowski mappings in dimension $\leq 9$ in the case $\prod_{i=1}^{n}a_{ii}\neq0$.
This article is part of an ongoing investigation of the two-dimensional Jacobian conjecture. In the first paper of this series, we proved the generalized Magnus' formula. In this paper, inspired by cluster algebras, we introduce a sequence of new conjectures including the remainder vanishing conjecture. This makes the generalized Magnus' formula become a useful tool to show the two-dimensional Jacobian conjecture. In the forthcoming paper(s), we plan to prove the remainder vanishing conjecture.
Let $z=(z_1, ..., z_n)$ and $Δ=\sum_{i=1}^n \fr {\p^2}{\p z^2_i}$ the Laplace operator. The main goal of the paper is to show that the well-known Jacobian conjecture without any additional conditions is equivalent to the following what we call {\it vanishing conjecture}: for any homogeneous polynomial $P(z)$ of degree $d=4$, if $Δ^m P^m(z)=0$ for all $m \geq 1$, then $Δ^m P^{m+1}(z)=0$ when $m>>0$, or equivalently, $Δ^m P^{m+1}(z)=0$ when $m> \fr 32 (3^{n-2}-1)$. It is also shown in this paper that the condition $Δ^m P^m(z)=0$ ($m \geq 1$) above is equivalent to the condition that $P(z)$ is He…
We establish an invertibility criterion for free polynomials and free functions evaluated on some tuples of matrices. We show that if the derivative is nonsingular on some domain closed with respect to direct sums and similarity, the function must be invertible. Thus, as a corollary, we establish the Jacobian conjecture in this context. Furthermore, our result holds for commutative polynomials evaluated on tuples of commuting matrices.
Jacobian conjectures (that nonsingular implies invertible) for rational everywhere defined maps of real n-space to itself are considered, with no requirement for a constant Jacobian determinant or a rational inverse. The associated extension of rational function fields must be of odd degree and must have no nontrivial automorphisms. The extensions for the Pinchuk counterexamples to the strong real Jacobian conjecture have no nontrivial automorphisms, but are of degree six. The birational case is proved, the Galois case is clarified but the general case of odd degree remains open. However, cert…
Let $G$ be a finite group acting effectively on the complex affine plane. If the $G$-action commutes with an étale endomorphism $f$ of the affine plane and the order of $G$ is even then the endomorphism $f$ is an automorphism.
By using Mather-Jacobian multiplier ideals, we first prove a formula on comparing Grauert-Riemenschneider canonical sheaf with canonical sheaf of a variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Then we turn to study Mather-Jacobian multiplier ideals on algebraic curve, in which case the definition of Mather-Jacobian multiplier ideal can be extended to a ground field of any characteristic. We show that Mather-Jacobian multiplier ideal on curves is essentially the same as an integrally closed ideal. Finally by comparing conductor ideal with Mather-Jacobian multiplier ideal, …
Deligne has conjectured that certain mixed Hodge theoretic invariants of complex algebraic invariants are motivic. This conjecture specializes to an algebraic construction of the Jacobian for smooth projective curves, which was done by A. Weil. The conjecture (and one-motives) are motivated by means of Jacobians, generalized Jacobians of Rosenlicht, and Serre's generalized Albanese varieties. We discuss the connections with the Hodge and the generalized Hodge conjecture. We end with some applications to number theory by providing partial answers to questions of Serre, Katz and Jannsen.
Let $K$ be a number field and $O_K$ the ring of integers of $K$. In the spirit of Siegel's theorem on integral points on affine algebraic curves, the plane Jacobian conjecture over $K$ is equivalent to the following statement: if $P,Q\in O_K[x,y]$ and $P_xQ_y-P_yQ_x\equiv 1$, then the curve $P=0$ has more than one integral point.
It is shown that every polynomial function $P : \mathbb{C}^2\longrightarrow \mathbb{C}$ with irreducible fibres of same a genus is a coordinate. In consequence, there does not exist counterexamples F = (P,Q) to the Jacobian conjecture such that all fibres of P are irreducible curves of same a genus.
This article is about polynomial maps with a certain symmetry and/or antisymmetry in their Jacobians, and whether the Jacobian Conjecture is satisfied for such maps, or whether it is sufficient to prove the Jacobian Conjecture for such maps. For instance, we show that it suffices to prove the Jacobian conjecture for polynomial maps x + H over C such that JH satisfies all symmetries of the square, where H is homogeneous of arbitrary degree d >= 3.
We prove for a tropical rational map that if for any point the convex hull of Jacobian matrices at smooth points in a neighborhood of the point does not contain singular matrices then the map is an isomorphism. We also show that a tropical polynomial map on the plane is an isomorphism if all the Jacobians have the same sign (positive or negative). In addition, for a tropical rational map we prove that if the Jacobians have the same sign and if its preimage is a singleton at least at one regular point then the map is an isomorphism.
We obtain a structure theorem for the nonproperness set $S_f$ of a nonsingular polynomial mapping $f:\mathbb{C}^n \to \mathbb{C}^n$. Jelonek's results on $S_f$ and our result show that if $f$ is a counterexample to the Jacobian conjecture, then $S_f$ is a hypersurface such that $S_f\cap Z \neq \emptyset$, for any $Z\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ biregular to $\mathbb{C}^{n-1}$ and $Z = h^{-1}(0)$ for a polynomial submersion $h: \mathbb{C}^n \to \mathbb{C}$. Also, we present topological approaches to the Jacobian conjecture in $\mathbb{C}^n$.
We explore an (unpublished) approach to the famous Jacobian Conjecture by means of identities of algebras, discovered by the brilliant deceased mathematician, Alexander Vladimirovich Yagzhev (1951{2001). This approach also indicates some very close connections between mathematical physics, universal algebra and automorphisms of polynomial algebras
The purpose of this review paper is the collection, systematization and discussion of recent results concerning the quantization approach to the Jacobian conjecture, as well as certain related topics.
A polynomial endomorphism $σ\in {\rm End}_K(P_n)$ is called a Jacobian map if its Jacobian is a nonzero scalar (the field has zero characteristic). Each Jacobian map $σ$ is extended to an endomorphism $σ$ of the Weyl algebra $A_n$. The Jacobian Conjecture (JC) says that every Jacobian map is an automorphism. Clearly, the Jacobian Conjecture is true iff the twisted (by $σ$) $P_n$-module ${}^σ P_n$ is 1-generated for all Jacobian maps $σ$. It is shown that the $A_n$-module ${}^σ P_n$ is 1-generated for all Jacobian maps $σ$. Furthermore, the $A_n$-module ${}^σ P_n$ is holonomic and as a result h…
In this paper, we first show that the Jacobian Conjecture is true for non-homogeneous power linear mappings under some conditions. Secondly, we prove an equivalent statement about the Jacobian Conjecture in dimension $r\geq 1$ and give some partial results for $r=2$. Finally, for a homogeneous power linear Keller map $F=X+H$ of degree $d \ge 2$, we give the inverse polynomial map under the condition that $JH^3=0$. We shall show that ${\operatorname{deg}}(F^{-1})\leq d^k$ if $k \le 2$ and $JH^{k+1}=0$, but also give an example with $d = 2$ and $JH^4=0$ such that ${\operatorname{deg}}(F^{-1})> d…
In this paper, we will first show that, the homogeneous polynomials which satisfy the Jacobian condition are injective on the lines that pass through the origin. Secondly, we will show that $F$ and $G'$ are paired, where $F$ is a Druzkowski map and $G'$ is a cubic homogeneous polynomial which related to $F$. Finally, we will find a more exactly bound for the degree of $F^{-1}$, where $F$ is a invertible map.
The Jacobian Conjecture has been reduced to the symmetric homogeneous case. In this paper we give an inversion formula for the symmetric case and relate it to a combinatoric structure called the Grossman-Larson Algebra. We use these tools to prove the symmetric Jacobian Conjecture for the case $F=X-H$ with $H$ homogeneous and $JH^{3}=0$. Other special results are also derived. We pose a combinatorial statement which would give a complete proof the Jacobian Conjecture.
For a curve C, viewed as a cycle in its Jacobian, we study its image n_*C under multiplication by n on JC. We prove that the subgroup generated by these cycles, in the Chow group modulo algebraic equivalence, has rank at most d-1, where d is the gonality of C. We also discuss some general facts on the action of n_* on the Chow groups.
For K a field of characteristic 0 and d any integer number greater than or equal to 2, we prove the invertibility of polynomial endomorphisms of the affine space of dimension d over K of the form F=Id+H, where each coordinate of H is the cube of a linear form and the cube of the Jacobian matrix of H is equal to zero. Our proof uses the inversion algorithm for polynomial maps presented in our previous paper. Our current result leads us to formulate a conjecture relating the nilpotency degree of the Jacobian matrix of H with the number of necessary steps in the inversion algorithm.
