The Collatz Conjecture, While F(x) = 1 as X → ∞

Authors: Aya Thompson, Colin Thompson

The Collatz Conjecture is one of the most famous unsolved problems in mathematics,and the most basic unsolved one. Our contribution is to show that the problem can be split intotwo dimensions, each dimension can be represented by a single function that can then beshown to not form a loop, other than the established X = 1. The lack of other loops in the collatzconjecture is direct proof of the conjecture itself.
