Made's weak genericity conjecture for minimizing measures

About 15 years old · traced to

Let MM be a closed manifold, let LL be a Tonelli Lagrangian on MM, and let H1(M,R)H^1(M,\mathbb R) denote the first cohomology group. For a generic Lagrangian LL, consider (L,c)(L,c)-minimizing measures, obtained after perturbing by a closed 11-form representing cc.

Made's weak conjecture. For a generic Lagrangian LL, there is an open dense subset UU of H1(M,R)H^1(M,\mathbb R) such that, for every c∈Uc\in U, there is a unique (L,c)(L,c)-minimizing measure, and this measure is supported on a periodic orbit or a fixed point of the Euler–Lagrange flow.

The weak version allows closed 11-form perturbations in addition to potentials and is presented as part of Made's program on generic minimizing measures. The supplied text does not state whether it has been resolved.
