Infinite generation of invariant Griffiths groups for the cubic sevenfold and weighted quartic families

Let X3X_3 and X4X_4 be general members of the families of cubic sevenfolds and smooth hypersurfaces in P(16;2)\mathbb{P}(1^6;2) described above, respectively. Write GriffQ(X3){\rm Griff}_{\mathbb{Q}}(X_3) and GriffQ(X4){\rm Griff}_{\mathbb{Q}}(X_4) for their Griffiths groups with rational coefficients, and let the displayed finite groups act as in the constructions above. Infinite-generation conjecture. For the general member of each family, the invariant Griffiths groups

GriffQ(X3)Z3Z3andGriffQ(X4)Z2{\rm Griff}_{\mathbb{Q}}(X_3)^{\mathbb{Z}_3 \oplus \mathbb{Z}_3}\quad\text{and}\quad {\rm Griff}_{\mathbb{Q}}(X_4)^{\mathbb{Z}_2}

are infinitely generated. These examples relate Griffiths groups of products of a K3 surface or elliptic curve to invariant Griffiths groups of Fano hypersurfaces; the conjecture predicts that the resulting invariant groups are nevertheless infinitely generated for general members of the two families.
