Existence conjecture for convex weak refractors with general target sets
Existence conjecture for convex weak refractors with general target sets
Let be a target set satisfying Hypothesis H1, and let
Suppose that , where is defined by the source's equation (e0). Given with
set . Let be nonnegative and vanish outside , and let be nonnegative. If is the measure defined by the source's equation (lebesgue) and
then there exists and a convex refractor that is a convex weak solution to the refractor problem.
Convex refractor existence conjecture. Under these hypotheses, such a convex weak solution exists for the target set and data described above.
The conjecture would extend the paper's existence results beyond the rotationally symmetric and sufficiently close target-set cases, potentially covering general exotic Lebesgue-measurable target sets. The source provides indirect evidence from its established existence theorems, but does not state that this general claim has been proved.
