Campana's Kobayashi pseudo-distance conjecture for the core

Let XX be a projective manifold, let cX:XC(X)c_X:X\to\mathcal C(X) be its core, and let Δ(cX)\Delta(c_X) denote the orbifold divisor on the core induced by this fibration. Let dXd_X be the Kobayashi pseudo-distance of XX.

Campana's core-distance conjecture. The Kobayashi pseudo-distance is the pullback of the orbifold Kobayashi pseudo-distance on the core:

dX=cXδX,δX=d(C(X)/Δ(cX)).d_X=c_X^*\delta_X,\qquad \delta_X=d_{(\mathcal C(X)/\Delta(c_X))}.

This refines the preceding description of the Kobayashi pseudo-distance by identifying the distance on the core with its orbifold Kobayashi pseudo-distance. Its resolution is not given in the source and remains open.
