Title: The Jacobian Problem
Time, day and date: 3:00:00 PM – 4:00:00 PM, Monday, September 28
Venue: LH 302
Abstract: Recently, Alpoge, Matthew, and Claude Fable gave a surprising counterexample to the Jacobian Problem in three or more variables. In this lecture we will first start with easy observations about the Jacobian Problem. Later we will discuss interesting special results proved by many mathematicians like S.S. Abhyankar, Abhyankar Gurjar Inversion Formula, Applegate-Onishi, Bass-Connell-Wright, Jagzev, T. T. Moh, A. Magnus, Nakai-Baba, S. Wang, S. Kaliman etc. Due to lack of time no proofs will be discussed. We will suggest possible special results for young mathematicians to try to prove. We will discuss results by many mathematicians for the 2-variable Jacobian Problem.
