Mixed linear-quadratic nonrecurrence conjecture for minimal systems

About 2 years old · traced to

Let (X,T)(X,T) and (X,S)(X,S) be minimal systems on the same compact space XX. Mixed linear-quadratic nonrecurrence conjecture. There are minimal systems (X,T)(X,T) and (X,S)(X,S) such that for any x∈Xx\in X there is no subsequence {ni}\{n_i\} of Z\mathbb{Z}, with ni→∞n_i\to\infty, satisfying

Tnix→x,T2nix→x,Sni2x→x.T^{n_i}x\to x,\qquad T^{2n_i}x\to x,\qquad S^{n_i^2}x\to x.

This is a stronger mixed-recurrence obstruction involving two iterates of TT and a quadratic iterate of SS; the source presents it as open.
