The two-fixed-point Jacobian eigenvalue conjecture

Let f:RnRnf:\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}^n be a C1C^1 map, and let J(f)J(f) denote its Jacobian matrix. A point xx is a fixed point if f(x)=xf(x)=x. The two-fixed-point conjecture. If ff has two distinct fixed points, then J(f)J(f) has a nonzero eigenvalue at some point. The paper states that this is equivalent to the C1C^1 unipotent Jacobian univalence conjecture; it is therefore open in the generality considered.
