Positive-proportion conjecture for irreducible polynomials in quadratic semigroups
Positive-proportion conjecture for irreducible polynomials in quadratic semigroups
Let for some distinct and . Let denote the semigroup generated by under composition, and call a subset of a positive-proportion set if its proportion among elements of bounded degree has positive lower limit. Positive-proportion conjecture. contains a positive proportion of irreducible polynomials if and only if it contains at least one irreducible polynomial. This extends the established integer-coefficient result to rational parameters; the rational case is presented as an open problem, and the source explicitly notes that this case remains open.
