Nonexistence of robustly transitive diffeomorphisms on the 3-sphere

Let S3S^3 denote the three-dimensional sphere. A diffeomorphism is robustly transitive if its transitivity persists under sufficiently small perturbations in the C1C^1 topology. Sphere conjecture. There is no robustly transitive diffeomorphism on S3S^3. The statement is presented as an open question about which manifolds admit robustly transitive diffeomorphisms, and the source gives no resolution.
