Theorem · version 1

The same witness works in every higher dimension

Statement

If complex polynomials P,Q in three independent standard real Gaussian variables satisfy E[P^m] = 0 and E[QP^m] = m! for every positive integer m, then for every n ≥ 3 these polynomials, independent of the extra coordinates, refute the Gaussian Moments Conjecture in n variables.

Assumptions

  • The exact three-variable identities hold for every positive integer m.
  • Additional coordinates are independent standard real Gaussians.

Scope

Additional independent coordinates do not change these expectations. This extension leaves the two-variable case untouched and by itself gives no conclusion about the Jacobian conjecture.
