The conjecture that algebraically integrable hypersurfaces are quadrics
The conjecture that algebraically integrable hypersurfaces are quadrics
Let be a smooth polynomially integrable hypersurface in Euclidean space, meaning that its local section-volume function depends polynomially on the displacement parameter. A strictly convex quadric is a strictly convex hypersurface defined by a quadratic equation.
Quadraticity conjecture. Every smooth polynomially integrable hypersurface is a strictly convex quadric in .
Examples include ellipsoids, elliptic paraboloids, and single sheets of two-sheet hyperboloids. Polynomial integrability does not occur in even dimensions, but the asserted classification in odd dimensions is presented as an open problem.
