hello there the jacobian conjecture is false thanx to my close friend akhil for asking about it and my other close friend fable for working during the world cup final
((1+xy)^3 z + y^2 (1+xy) (4+3xy), y + 3 x (1+xy)^2 z + 3 x y^2 (4+3xy), 2 x - 3 x^2 y - x^3 z): \C^3\to \C^3, has jacobian determinant -2, and sends (0, 0, -1/4), (1, -3/2, 13/2), and (-1, 3/2, 13/2) to (-1/4, 0, 0)

Interesting new PNAS paper by Goldberg & Kercheval: When considering a collection of many averages simultaneously, the aggregate sum of mean squared errors is no longer minimized by the collection of averages.This can be reduced by shrinking the averages...bit.ly/3Xcd2vP
