Favre's algebraic-integrality conjecture for dynamical degrees
Let be a field, let be a positive integer, and let . Its dynamical degree is
where is the maximum of the degrees of the coordinate polynomials of . Favre's conjecture. The dynamical degree of any element is an algebraic integer of degree at most . This would constrain the possible asymptotic degree growth of polynomial self-maps in arbitrary dimension; the statement is posed as a natural question after known low-dimensional examples, but its resolution is not supplied here.
