TL;DR: In this paper, the authors give an update survey of the most important results concerning the Jacobian conjecture: several equivalent descriptions are given and various related conjectures are discussed, and discuss the recent counter-examples, in all dimensions greater than two, to the Markus-Yamabe conjecture.
Abstract: In this paper we give an update survey of the most important results concerning the Jacobian conjecture: several equivalent descriptions are given and various related conjectures are discussed. At the end of the paper, we discuss the recent counter-examples, in all dimensions greater than two, to the Markus-Yamabe conjecture (Global asymptotic Jacobian conjecture). Resume Dans ce papier nous presentons un rapport actualise sur les resultats les plus importants concernant la conjecture Jacobienne : plusieurs formulations equivalentes et diverses conjectures connexes sont considerees. A la fin du papier, nous donnons les contre-exemples recents, en toute dimension plus grande que deux, a la conjecture de Markus-Yamabe.
TL;DR: Kuperberg and Zeilberger as discussed by the authors proved that there are 1!4!7!...(3n-2)./n!/(n+1)!/.../(2n-1).
Abstract: Author(s): Kuperberg, Greg | Abstract: Robbins conjectured, and Zeilberger recently proved, that there are 1!4!7!...(3n-2)!/n!/(n+1)!/.../(2n-1)! alternating sign matrices of order n. We give a new proof of this result using an analysis of the six-vertex state model (also called square ice) based on the Yang-Baxter equation.
