  2. Jacobian conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobian_conjecture

    The strong real Jacobian conjecture was that a real polynomial map with a nowhere vanishing Jacobian determinant has a smooth global inverse. That is equivalent to asking whether such a map is topologically a proper map , in which case it is a covering map of a simply connected manifold , hence invertible.

    Jacobian conjecture. Keller asked this as a question in 1939, and in the next few years there were several published incomplete proofs, including 3 by B. Segre, but Vitushkin found gaps in many of them. The Jacobian conjecture is (as of 2016) an open problem, and more incomplete proofs are regularly announced.

  4. Jacobian matrix and determinant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobian_matrix_and...

    The absolute value of the Jacobian determinant at p gives us the factor by which the function f expands or shrinks volumes near p; this is why it occurs in the general substitution rule. The Jacobian determinant is used when making a change of variables when evaluating a multiple integral of a function over a region within its domain. To ...

  5. Inverse function theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function_theorem

    If it is true, the Jacobian conjecture would be a variant of the inverse function theorem for polynomials. It states that if a vector-valued polynomial function has a Jacobian determinant that is an invertible polynomial (that is a nonzero constant), then it has an inverse that is also a polynomial function. It is unknown whether this is true ...

    Hartshorne's conjectures [42] Jacobian conjecture: if a polynomial mapping over a characteristic-0 field has a constant nonzero Jacobian determinant, then it has a regular (i.e. with polynomial components) inverse function. Manin conjecture on the distribution of rational points of bounded height in certain subsets of Fano varieties

  7. Jacobi's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi's_formula

    In matrix calculus, Jacobi's formula expresses the derivative of the determinant of a matrix A in terms of the adjugate of A and the derivative of A. [1]If A is a differentiable map from the real numbers to n × n matrices, then

  8. Abel–Jacobi map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abel–Jacobi_map

    The Abel–Jacobi theorem implies that the Albanese variety of a compact complex curve (dual of holomorphic 1-forms modulo periods) is isomorphic to its Jacobian variety (divisors of degree 0 modulo equivalence). For higher-dimensional compact projective varieties the Albanese variety and the Picard variety are dual but need not be isomorphic.

  9. Carl Gustav Jacob Jacobi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Gustav_Jacob_Jacobi

    The solution of the Jacobi inversion problem for the hyperelliptic Abel map by Weierstrass in 1854 required the introduction of the hyperelliptic theta function and later the general Riemann theta function for algebraic curves of arbitrary genus.
