The contractive-grid Cauchy-sequence conjecture

At least 9 years old · documented by

Let nn be a positive integer and let λ\lambda satisfy 0≤λ<10\leq\lambda<1. An nn-dimensional λ\lambda-contractive grid is a pseudometric space (N0n,d)(\mathbb{N}_0^n,d) such that for every x,y∈N0nx,y\in\mathbb{N}_0^n, some i∈[n]i\in[n] satisfies

d(x+ei,y+ei)≤λd(x,y).d(x+e_i,y+e_i)\leq\lambda d(x,y).

The contractive-grid conjecture. Every such grid contains a 1-way Cauchy sequence. The conjecture is introduced as a formulation capturing the essence of Austin's common fixed point conjecture; the paper proves only special cases and indicates that a complete proof remains to be found.
