Doomsday conjecture
In algebraic topology, the doomsday conjecture was a conjecture about Ext groups over the Steenrod algebra made by Joel Cohen, named by Michael Barratt, published by and disproved by. stated a modified version called the new doomsday conjecture.
The original doomsday conjecture was that for any prime p and positive integer s there are only a finite number of permanent cycles in
found an infinite number of permanent cycles for p = s = 2, disproving the conjecture. Minami's new doomsday conjecture is a weaker form stating that there are no nontrivial permanent cycles in the image of n for n sufficiently large depending on s.
