We prove that the Jacobian conjecture is false if and only if there exists a solution to a certain system of polynomial equations. We analyse the solution set of this system. In particular we prove that it is zero dimensional.

We prove a sufficient condition for the Jacobian problem in the setting of real, complex and mixed polynomial mappings. This follows from the study of the bifurcation locus of a mapping subject to a new Newton non-degeneracy condition.

We prove that every polynomial map $(f,g):\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R}^2$ with nowhere vanishing Jacobian such that $\mathrm{deg}\, f\leq 5$, $\mathrm{deg}\,g \leq 6$ is injective.

We present some estimations on geometry of the exceptional value sets of non-zero constant Jacobian polynomial maps of $\C^2$ and it's components.

We show that many existing divisibility sequences can be seen as sequences of determinants of matrix divisibility sequences, which arise naturally as Jacobian matrices associated to groups of maps on affine spaces.

We study meromorphic jacobian pairs, i.e., pairs of polynomials in one variable, with coefficients meromorphic series in a second variable, whose jacobian relative to the two variables depends only on the second variable. We pose two…

We consider polynomial maps described by so-called "(multivariate) linearized polynomials". These polynomials are defined using a fixed prime power, say q. Linearized polynomials have no mixed terms. Considering invertible polynomial maps…

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…

Let $K$ be any field and $x = (x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n)$. We classify all matrices $M \in {\rm Mat}_{m,n}(K[x])$ whose entries are polynomials of degree at most 1, for which ${\rm rk} M \le 2$. As a special case, we describe all such matrices…

We present a framework for characterizing injectivity of classes of maps (on cosets of a linear subspace) by injectivity of classes of matrices. Using our formalism, we characterize injectivity of several classes of maps, including…

The Jacobian conjecture in dimension $n$ asserts that any polynomial endomorphism of $n$-dimensional affine space over a field of zero characteristic, with the Jacobian equal 1, is invertible. The Dixmier conjecture in rank $n$ asserts that…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of sign vectors for the injectivity of families of polynomial maps with arbitrary real exponents defined on the positive orthant. Our work relates and extends existing injectivity…

We prove that if a non-singular planar map $\Lambda \in C^2(R^2,R^2)$ has a convex component, then $\Lambda$ is injective. We do not assume strict convexity.

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…

We determine a necessary and sufficient condition for a polynomial over an algebraically closed field $k$ to induce a surjective map on matrix algebras $M_n(k)$ for $n \ge 2$. The criterion is given in terms of critical points and uses…

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…

In this paper we present a theorem concerning an equivalent statement of the Jacobian Conjecture in terms of Picard-Vessiot extensions. Our theorem completes the earlier work of T. Crespo and Z. Hajto which suggested an effective criterion…

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…

Symmetric Jacobi matrices on one sided homogeneous trees are studied. Essential selfadjointness of these matrices turns out to depend on the structure of the tree. If a tree has one end and infinitely many origin points the matrix is always…

In this article, we prove that every unicritical polynomial map that has only rational multipliers is either a power map or a Chebyshev map. This provides some evidence in support of a conjecture by Milnor concerning rational maps whose…
