Thom's finiteness conjecture for polynomial-map topological types
Let be either or , and let denote the space of degree- polynomial maps from to , with topological type defined by composition with homeomorphisms on source and target. Thom's finiteness conjecture. For every positive integer and every positive integer , the space gives rise to at most finitely many topological types. The conjecture is the central finiteness claim motivating the survey; the provided text does not establish whether it has been resolved.
