Generalized Kollár–Peskine conjecture for infinite Grassmannians

For any n2n\geq 2, let KK and RR be the fields and rings used to define the infinite Grassmannian, and let Xn\mathcal{X}_n be the infinite Grassmannian associated to G=SL(n)G=\operatorname{SL}(n):

Xn:=SL(n,K)/SL(n,R).\mathcal{X}_n:=\operatorname{SL}(n,K)/\operatorname{SL}(n,R).

Generalized Kollár–Peskine conjecture. There does not exist any nonconstant morphism

ϕ:Pn+1Xn.\phi:\mathbb{P}^{n+1}\to\mathcal{X}_n.

This generalizes the preceding case for the infinite Grassmannian associated to SL(2)\operatorname{SL}(2) and would imply corresponding triviality results for vector bundles over projective space. The source provides no resolution of the conjecture.
