Vitushkin's 1999 construction of rational functions (in the analytic capacity / removable sets setting), treated as a precedent. Claims about the construction itself, or that other constructions — e.g. putative Jacobian conjecture counterexamples — derive from, parallel, or generalize it, belong here; general analytic capacity or rational approximation claims do not.

Vitushkin's construction method faces an obstruction in two dimensions that the three-dimensional polynomial counterexample circumvents

Vitushkin's 1999 paper constructs a non-injective rational self-map of C² with constant nonzero Jacobian
UnassessedNo current assessment. Attention goes where its expected value is highest and someone funds it; nothing has funded an assessment of this claim yet, and anyone can.constitution →empirical · derivedA factual claim that rests on inference from other evidence rather than direct observation.constitution →Algebraic geometryJacobian conjectureimportance · settledImportance 0.15, from 0 to 1 · settled: uncontested, so low even when much depends on it.
