The parametrized Gompf-equivalence conjecture for Cappell–Shaneson matrices

About 2 years old · traced to

Let

CS={(c,d,n)∈Z3∣fn(c)≡0(modd) and d≠0}.\mathcal{C}\mathcal{S}=\{(c,d,n)\in\mathbb{Z}^3\mid f_n(c)\equiv0\pmod d\ \text{and}\ d\neq0\}.

The set CS\mathcal{C}\mathcal{S} parametrizes standard Cappell–Shaneson matrices via (c,d,n)↦Xc,d,n(c,d,n)\mapsto X_{c,d,n}. Let ∼\sim denote Gompf equivalence on CS\mathcal{C}\mathcal{S}, and let (1,1,2)(1,1,2) correspond to A0A_0. The parametrized Gompf-equivalence conjecture. For every (c,d,n)∈CS(c,d,n)\in\mathcal{C}\mathcal{S},

(c,d,n)∼(1,1,2).(c,d,n)\sim(1,1,2).

This is a reformulation of Gompf's matrix-equivalence conjecture in the parametrization by triples. The supplied text gives no separate resolution, so the general assertion remains open there.
