Iwaniec's quasiconvexity conjecture for the planar Burkholder integrand

From papers

Let Bp ⁣:R2×2RB_p\colon \mathbb{R}^{2\times 2}\to\mathbb{R} be the Burkholder integrand, defined by

Bp(A)=(12pA2+detA)Ap2,p1,B_p(A)=\left(\left|1-\frac{2}{p}\right|\lvert A\rvert^2+\det A\right)\lvert A\rvert^{p-2}, \qquad p\geq 1,

where A\lvert A\rvert denotes the operator norm. Iwaniec's conjecture. The integrand Bp ⁣:R2×2RB_p\colon \mathbb{R}^{2\times 2}\to\mathbb{R} is quasiconvex. This is a long-standing open problem concerning whether rank-one convexity implies quasiconvexity for the isotropic, positively homogeneous Burkholder integrand in two dimensions.
