Markus conjecture for closed flat affine manifolds
Markus conjecture for closed flat affine manifolds
Let be a connected closed flat affine manifold. Its holonomy morphism is a map , and has parallel volume when takes values in . The manifold is complete when its developing map is a diffeomorphism.
Markus conjecture. Any connected closed flat affine manifold with parallel volume is complete.
This conjecture concerns the relationship between the volume-preserving holonomy condition and completeness of flat affine structures. It is still an open question, even in dimension three.
