Abstract:
Let $F,G \in \mathbb {C}[x,y]$. If the Jacobian determinant of F and G is 1, then G is said to be a Jacobian mate of F. If, in addition, G has degree less than that of F, then G is said to be a younger mate of F. In this paper, a necessary and sufficient condition is given for a polynomial to have a younger mate. This also gives rise to a formula for the younger mate if it exists. Furthermore, a conjecture concerning the existence of a younger mate is shown to be equivalent to the Jacobian conjecture.References
