On the Density of Polynomial Mappings Satisfying the Jacobian Conjecture

Abstract: The Jacobian Conjecture is a known unsolved problem and it is the problem number 16 of the list ''Mathematical Problems for the Next Century'', made by Stephen Smale, in 1998. The problem asks whether or not the Jacobian matrix of a polynomial mapping $F:\mathbb{C}<sup>n\to\mathbb{C}<sup>n$ at every point being invertible implies that $F$ is an automorphism. The case $n = 1$ is trivially true, while the case $n\geq 3$ has been recently proven to be false by a counter-example provided by Levent Alpöge, and the case $n = 2$ is still an open problem. In this paper, we show that, for all $n \geq 1$, there exists a non-empty Zariski dense open set $U$ such that, for all $F \in U$, if the Jacobian matrix of $F$ is invertible, then $F$ is an automorpshim.
