The Möbius-nonvanishing conjecture for Collatz trajectories of primes

At least 6 years old · documented by

Let ff be the Collatz function, let p>2p>2 be prime with p≡3(mod4)p\equiv 3\pmod 4, and let μ\mu denote the Möbius function. The Möbius-nonvanishing conjecture. There exists an integer nn in the Collatz trajectory of pp such that

n∈{fs(p)}s=1∞andμ(n)≠0.n\in\{f^{s}(p)\}_{s=1}^{\infty}\quad\text{and}\quad\mu(n)\neq 0.

This is one of the paper's proposed primality-related properties of Collatz processes. The supplied text gives no resolution evidence.
