Strong Approximation Conjecture for the Markoff surface
Strong Approximation Conjecture for the Markoff surface
Let be the affine surface
Let be the group of affine integral morphisms of generated by coordinate permutations and the Vieta involutions. For a prime , let be the set of solutions modulo , and define
Strong Approximation Conjecture. For any prime , consists of exactly two -orbits, namely
This asserts that the nonzero solutions to the Markoff equation form a single orbit under the natural Vieta and permutation symmetries, a strong approximation property for the Markoff surface. The supplied text does not state whether the conjecture is proved or remains open.
