Finsler uniformization conjecture for reversible metrics on the projective plane

About 22 years old · traced to

Let LL be a reversible Finsler metric on RP2{\mathbb R}P^2. A smooth positive function ρ\rho on RP2{\mathbb R}P^2 is a function whose product with LL defines the conformally rescaled Finsler metric ρL\rho L. Finsler uniformization conjecture. There exists a smooth positive function ρ\rho on RP2{\mathbb R}P^2 such that the geodesic flow of the metric ρL\rho L is periodic. This would give a Finsler generalization of the uniformization theorem and, together with the preceding isosystolic inequality, would imply the Finsler extension of Pu's theorem for the projective plane.
