Invariance of the perimeter of focus-inversive polygons

A focus-inversive polygon is obtained from an NN-periodic billiard polygon by the focus-inversive construction described in the paper. Its perimeter is denoted by LL^\dagger. Perimeter invariance conjecture. The perimeter of the focus-inversive polygon is invariant for any NN. This is experimentally observed in the paper; the preceding results establish the analogous invariance for the N=3N=3 focus-inversive family, while invariance for arbitrary NN remains unresolved.
