The intrinsic Palis conjecture for homoclinic classes

About 11 years old · traced to

Let MM be a compact manifold and let Diff⁡1(M)\operatorname{Diff}^1(M) be the space of C1C^1-diffeomorphisms. A residual subset is a countable intersection of open dense subsets, and the stable dimension of a hyperbolic periodic point is the dimension of its stable bundle. Intrinsic Palis conjecture. There is a residual subset R⊂Diff⁡1(M)\mathcal{R}\subset \operatorname{Diff}^1(M) such that, for every f∈Rf\in\mathcal{R}, if a homoclinic class H(p)H(p) is not hyperbolic, then there is a periodic point q∈H(p)q\in H(p) whose stable dimension differs from that of pp. This is proposed as an intrinsic version of Palis's conjecture because the periodic point with different stable dimension is required to lie inside the non-hyperbolic homoclinic class; the source gives no resolution.
