Flaminio–Katok conjecture on smooth stable and unstable foliations

Let f:MMf:M\to M be a CkC^k-smooth Anosov diffeomorphism. Denote its stable and unstable foliations by Ffs\mathcal{F}^s_f and Ffu\mathcal{F}^u_f, respectively. Flaminio–Katok conjecture. If both foliations Ffs\mathcal{F}^s_f and Ffu\mathcal{F}^u_f are C2C^2-smooth, then ff is Cmax{2,k}C^{\max\{2,k\}} conjugate to a hyperbolic automorphism of an infra-nilmanifold. The conjecture concerns the rigidity of Anosov diffeomorphisms with highly regular invariant foliations and can be divided into two parts, both of which remain open.
