In mathematics, the Jacobian conjecture was a conjecture concerning polynomials in several variables. It states that if a polynomial function from an n-dimensional space to itself has a Jacobian determinant which is a non-zero constant, then the function has a polynomial inverse. The conjecture was first stated for two variables by Ludwig Kraus in 1884 and then stated in full generality in 1939 by Ott-Heinrich Keller. It was subsequently widely publicized by Shreeram Abhyankar, as an example of a difficult question in algebraic geometry that can be understood using little beyond a knowledge of calculus.
