    The authors give a self-contained proof of the stable equivalence of the Dixmier conjecture and the Jacobian conjecture which is inspired by the paper [\textit{A. Belov-Kanel, M. Kontsevich}, Mosc. Math. J. 7, No. 2, 209--218 (2007; Zbl 1128.16014)]. This result was first obtained by \textit{Y. Tsuchimoto} [Osaka J. Math. 42, No. 2, 435--452 (2005; Zbl 1105.16024)]. In fact, they prove that a third conjecture, which they name the Poisson conjecture, is stably equivalent to both conjectures. Define \(P_n(\mathbb{C})\) as the polynomial ring \(\mathbb{C}^{[2n]}\) endowed with the canonical Poisson bracket \(\{,\}\) defined by \[ \{f,g\}=\sum_{i=1}^n(\frac{\partial f}{\partial x_i}\frac{\partial g}{\partial x_{i+n}}-\frac{\partial f}{\partial x_{i+n}}\frac{\partial g}{\partial x_{i}}) . \] By \(A_n(\mathbb{C})\) we denote the \(n\)-th Weyl algebra with \(2n\) generators \(y_1,\ldots,y_{2n}\) where [\(y_i,y_{i+n}]=1\) for all \(1\leq i\leq n\) and \([y_i,y_j]=0\) otherwise. Poisson conjecture (\(PC(n)\)). Every endomorphism of \(P_n(\mathbb{C})\) preserving \(\{,\}\) is an automorphism. Dixmier conjecture (\(DC(n)\)). Every endomorphism of \(A_n(\mathbb{C})\) is an automorphism. Jacobian conjecture (\(JC(n)\)). Every \(\mathbb{C}\)-endomorphism \(F\) of \(\mathbb{C}^{[n]}\) with \(\det(\text{Jac}(F))=1\) is an automorphism, where \(\text{Jac}(F)\) is the Jacobian of \(F\). Well-known is that \(DC(n)\Rightarrow JC(n)\). Tsuchimoto showed \(JC(2n)\Rightarrow DC(n)\). In the paper under review the authors show that \(JC(2n)\Rightarrow PC(n)\) and \(PC(n)\Rightarrow DC(n)\). They do this over more general coefficient rings than \(\mathbb{C}\).
