The 3x+1 Problem: An Annotated Bibliography, II (2000-2009)
Abstract
The 3x+1 problem concerns iteration of the map T(n) =(3n+1)/2 if n odd; n/2 if n even. The 3x +1 Conjecture asserts that for every positive integer n>1 the forward orbit of n includes the integer 1. This paper is an annotated bibliography of work done on the 3x+1 problem published from 2000 through 2009, plus some later papers that were preprints by 2009. This is a sequel to an annotated bibliography on the 3x+1 problem covering 1963-1999. At present the 3x+1 Conjecture remains unsolved.
