The Jacobian Conjecture over algebraically closed fields of characteristic zero

Let nn be a positive integer, let kk be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let f:knknf:k^n\rightarrow k^n be a polynomial map, meaning that each component fi:knkf_i:k^n\rightarrow k is polynomial. Let J(f)J(f) denote the Jacobian of ff. The Jacobian Conjecture. If J(f)=1J(f)=1, then ff is invertible with polynomial inverse. The source notes that the complex case suffices by the Lefschetz Principle, and that the conjecture remains open apart from the trivial one-dimensional case.
