Polynomial recurrence for totally minimal systems

About 6 years old · traced to

Let (X,T)(X,T) be a totally minimal system, and let P(n)P(n) be a non-constant integral polynomial. Polynomial recurrence conjecture. There is a dense GδG_\delta subset Ω\Omega of XX such that, for every x∈Ωx\in\Omega, the set

TP(n)(x):n∈Z\\{T^{P(n)}(x):n\in\mathbb Z\\}

is dense in XX. The conjecture extends the quadratic polynomial case proved in the source and is also known for minimal weakly mixing systems. Its general case remains open.
