Ergodicity conjecture for anti-symmetric skew products over locally Hamiltonian flows
Ergodicity conjecture for anti-symmetric skew products over locally Hamiltonian flows
Let be a locally Hamiltonian flow on a compact surface for which Theorem~ holds. Let be one of its minimal components of genus , and set
For , suppose that for all , that for every , , and , and that
for some and . Working conjecture. Under these conditions, the skew product flow is ergodic.
The conjecture proposes that the symmetry condition on logarithmic singularities is unnecessary for ergodicity when the relevant lower-order obstructions vanish and the first nonvanishing singularity coefficient occurs at order . It would extend known ergodicity results for symmetric logarithmic singularities to minimal components with saddle loops, where symmetry is naturally broken. The source does not state a resolution, so the conjecture is treated as open.
