Arbieto's conjecture on sectional-hyperbolic decomposition of generic star flows

Let XX be a C1C^1 flow. Its nonwandering set is the set of points xx such that every neighborhood UU of xx and every T>0T>0 admit some tTt\geq T with Xt(U)UX_t(U)\cap U\neq\emptyset. A flow is star if it has a neighborhood in the space of C1C^1 flows such that every periodic orbit or singularity of every flow in that neighborhood is hyperbolic. A C1C^1 generic flow in a specified subset of the space of C1C^1 flows is one belonging to a residual subset there. A set is transitive when it has the transitivity property, and is positively or negatively sectional-hyperbolic in the sense used for the flow.

Arbieto's conjecture. The nonwandering set of a C1C^1 generic star flow is the disjoint union of finitely many transitive sets which are positively or negatively sectional-hyperbolic.

This conjecture predicts a finite sectional-hyperbolic decomposition of the nonwandering set for generic star flows. The supplied text lists it as one of two current conjectures relating star flows and sectional-hyperbolicity; no resolution is stated here.
