Chebyshev classification of positive fixed-point proportion
Chebyshev classification of positive fixed-point proportion
Let be a complex polynomial, and let denote its geometric iterated Galois group over a transcendental parameter . A polynomial is linearly conjugate to another if it is obtained from it by conjugation by a linear polynomial. Chebyshev classification conjecture. The following are equivalent: is linearly conjugate to for some , and
Chebyshev polynomials are known to have positive fixed-point proportion, with value for odd degree and for even degree. The conjecture asserts that these, up to linear conjugacy and sign, are the only complex polynomials with positive fixed-point proportion.
