The algebraicity–multiplier group conjecture for quasiperiodic flows

At least 20 years old · documented by

Let ψ\psi be a quasiperiodic flow on an nn-torus, let FF be a real algebraic number field, and let MψM_\psi denote its multiplier group. The flow is FF-algebraic when its frequency data, after multiplication by a nonzero real scalar, form a Q{\mathbb Q}-basis of FF. Let oF{\mathfrak o}_F be the ring of integers of FF, and oF∗{\mathfrak o}_F^* its group of units.

Algebraicity–multiplier group conjecture. A quasiperiodic flow ψ\psi is FF-algebraic if and only if MψM_\psi is a finite index subgroup of oF∗{\mathfrak o}_F^*.

Examples suggest that FF-algebraicity and finite index of the multiplier group are closely related, with the conjecture asserting both implications. The supplied text gives examples supporting the claim but does not state that it has been resolved.
