Uniqueness conjecture for Markov fractions
Uniqueness conjecture for Markov fractions
Let be a Markov number, and call a rational number a Markov fraction when it is one of the Markov fractions defined in the paper; its denominator is the denominator in lowest terms. The interval under consideration is . Uniqueness conjecture for Markov fractions. For each Markov number , the interval contains at most one Markov fraction with denominator . This is equivalent to the uniqueness conjecture for Markov numbers, which asserts that every Markov number is the maximum of exactly one ordered Markov triple; the proposition is stated as yet to be proved or refuted.
