Positive Lyapunov exponent conjecture for projective K3 automorphisms
Let be a projective surface, let be an automorphism with positive topological entropy , and fix a Ricci-flat Kähler metric . Define the largest Lyapunov exponent of the Lebesgue measure by
Positive Lyapunov exponent conjecture. One has .
The exponent is known to be finite and nonnegative. Positivity is identified as a major outstanding problem; the source also notes that a dense -orbit would already be interesting in this setting.
