Hwang's algebraicity conjecture for characteristic foliations

From papers

Let XX be an irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifold and let YXY\subset X be a smooth hypersurface such that O(Y)\mathcal{O}(Y) is ample. The characteristic foliation on YY is the rank-one foliation induced by the restriction of the symplectic form to YY.

Hwang's conjecture. The characteristic foliation on YY cannot have all of its leaves algebraic.

This conjecture concerns the incompatibility between positivity of the hypersurface and algebraicity of every characteristic leaf. The supplied context notes that Hwang and Viehweg proved the stronger relevant result for smooth hypersurfaces of general type, which implies this conjecture.
