Some thoughts on the Jacobian Conjecture, Part II

AbstractIn Abhyankar's Purdue Lectures of 1971, the bivariate Jacobian Conjecture was settled for the case of two plus epsilon characteristic pairs. In the published version, the epsilon part got left out. Now we take care of the omission by preparing for a sharper result with full proof in Part III. The Jacobian Method is applied to giving a new simple proof of Jung's Automorphism Theorem. A detailed description of the Degreewise Newton Polygon is given. Some thoughts on the multivariate Jacobian Conjecture are included
