Recently geometric independent component analysis (ICA) has been generalized to overcomplete cases (overcomplete geoICA) with more sources than sensors. Here, we put this algorithm in the two-step framework. We generalize the geometric theory of quadratic case to the overcomplete case showing that fixpoints of geometric ICA fulfill a so called geometric convergence condition, which the mixed images of the unit vectors satisfy, too. This leads to a conjecture claiming that in the supergaussian unimodal symmetric case there is only one stable fixpoint, thus demonstrating uniqueness of overcomplete geoICA after convergence.
