Abstract
We prove that, for any E u ⊕ E cs partially hyperbolic C 2 diffeomorphism, the ω-limit set of a generic (with respect to the Lebesgue measure) point is a union of unstable leaves. As a corollary, we prove a conjecture made by Ilyashenko in his 2011 paper that the Milnor attractor is a union of unstable leaves. In the paper mentioned above, Ilyashenko reduced the local generecity of the existence of a “thick” Milnor attractor in the class of boundary-preserving diffeomorphisms of the product of the interval and the 2-torus to this conjecture.
