Pre-compactness of pentagram-map iterates modulo affine transformations
Pre-compactness of pentagram-map iterates modulo affine transformations
Let , and write for . The sequence consists of -birds in the space .
Pre-compactness conjecture. The sequence is pre-compact modulo affine transformations. That is, this sequence has a convergent subsequence which converges to another element of .
This conjecture concerns the long-term behavior of the generalized pentagram map. The supplied text gives no resolution, so its status remains open.
