The dual-defective-to-LQEL conjecture

About 14 years old · traced to

Let XX be a dual defective manifold, meaning that its dual variety is not a hypersurface, and suppose that

Pic⁡(X)≅Z⟨H⟩.\operatorname{Pic}(X)\cong\mathbb{Z}\langle H\rangle.

The dual-defective-to-LQEL conjecture. XX is a local quadratic entry locus manifold (LQELM).

This conjecture would identify dual defective manifolds with cyclic Picard group as secant defective varieties of a particularly rigid, locally quadratic type. The paper gives evidence for the claim, but the source provides no resolution.
