In algebra, Nagata's conjecture states that Nagata's automorphism of the polynomial ring k[x,y,z] is wild. The conjecture was proposed by Nagata (1972) and proved by Ualbai U. Umirbaev and Ivan P. Shestakov (2004).
Nagata's automorphism is given by
- [math]\displaystyle{ \phi(x,y,z) = (x-2\Delta y-\Delta^2z,y+\Delta z,z), }[/math]
where [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta=xz+y^2 }[/math].
For the inverse, let [math]\displaystyle{ (a,b,c)=\phi(x,y,z) }[/math] Then [math]\displaystyle{ z=c }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta= b^2+ac }[/math]. With this [math]\displaystyle{ y=b-\Delta c }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ x=a+2\Delta y+\Delta^2 z }[/math].
