Luo–Zhang conjecture on zero-free holomorphic one-forms

Let XX be a smooth complex projective variety, let κ(X)\kappa(X) denote its Kodaira dimension, and let WH0(X,ΩX1)W\subseteq H^0(X,\Omega_X^1) be a linear subspace such that the zero locus Z(ω)Z(\omega) is empty for every nonzero one-form ωW\omega\in W.

Luo–Zhang conjecture. The dimension of WW can be at most

dimXκ(X).\dim X-\kappa(X).

This is a generalization of the statement for varieties of general type, expressed in terms of Kodaira dimension. The source states that Luo and Zhang proved it for threefolds; its status in general is not resolved by the supplied text.
