The minimal expanding-or-contracting foliation conjecture in dimension three
The minimal expanding-or-contracting foliation conjecture in dimension three
Let be a three-dimensional manifold, let denote Lebesgue measure, and let be the space of Lebesgue-measure-preserving diffeomorphisms. A foliation is minimal if every leaf is dense, and an invariant expanding or contracting foliation is one arising from an invariant expanding or contracting one-dimensional subbundle. Minimal foliation conjecture. Generically in , if has positive metric entropy, then there exists a minimal invariant expanding or contracting foliation. The source presents this as a possible approach to the positive-entropy stable ergodicity conjecture; it remains open.
