Piecewise conjugacy conjecture for tensor algebras of multivariable systems

About 19 years old · traced to

Let (X,\f8σ)(X,\f8\sigma) and (Y,\f8τ)(Y,\f8\tau) be multivariable dynamical systems, and let A(X,σ){\mathcal{A}}(X,\sigma) and A(Y,τ){\mathcal{A}}(Y,\tau) denote their tensor algebras. Piecewise conjugacy conjecture. The tensor algebras A(X,σ){\mathcal{A}}(X,\sigma) and A(Y,τ){\mathcal{A}}(Y,\tau) are isomorphic if and only if the systems (X,σ)(X,\sigma) and (Y,τ)(Y,\tau) are piecewise topologically conjugate; in this case, they are completely isometrically isomorphic. The theorem preceding this conjecture proves the equivalence under several hypotheses, including n≤3n\leq 3, covering dimension at most 11, or absence of interior in the branch set; the general case remains open.
