Continuity conjecture for the mean-median map limit function
Continuity conjecture for the mean-median map limit function
For an initial set of size three, use affine invariance to reduce to the initial set with . Let be the limit of the associated median sequence. Continuity conjecture for the mean-median map limit function. The function is continuous. The conjecture asks whether the limiting median varies continuously with the initial condition; the source states that it remains open, while this paper proves discontinuity for the limit function of a slightly modified recursion.
