Abstract: A Keller map is a counterexample to the Jacobian Conjecture. In dimension two every such map, if exists, leads to a complicated set of conditions on the map between the Picard groups of suitable compactifications of the affine plane. This is essentially a combinatorial problem. Some solutions to it, that we call frameworks, are described and discussed. This second version of the paper includes several more frameworks than the first version, including one substantially more complicated framework.


The author constructs several frameworks which can be used to find Keller maps that are not globally invertible in dimension 2. It provides a new way to consider the Jacobian conjecture in dimension 2. In addition, the author proves that the smallest topological degree of the Keller maps from his frameworks is 16. At the end of the paper, the author also poses several questions for further research.
