It also constructs identity-padded polynomial maps, proves their block-Jacobian determinant is unchanged, and thereby obtains counterexamples in every finite dimension at least three.

The Jacobian conjecture asks whether a polynomial self-map of affine space over a field of characteristic zero has a polynomial inverse whenever its Jacobian determinant is a nonzero constant.

Isabelle proves that the formal Jacobian entries are the corresponding complex analytic partial derivatives and that the determinant is identically \(-2\).
