- Dixmier conjecture
-
In algebra the Dixmier conjecture, asked by Dixmier (1968, problem 1), is the conjecture that any endomorphism of a Weyl algebra is an automorphism.
Belov-Kanel & Kontsevich (2007) showed that the Dixmier conjecture (generalized to Weyl algebras with more generators) is equivalent to the Jacobian conjecture.
