Ni's maximal volume growth conjecture for Kähler manifolds

Let MnM^n be a complete noncompact Kähler manifold with nonnegative bisectional curvature. Suppose that MM admits a nonconstant holomorphic function with polynomial growth and that its bisectional curvature is positive at least at one point. Ni's maximal volume growth conjecture. Then MM has maximal volume growth. More precisely, if MM has quasi-positive bisectional curvature, then the following three conditions are equivalent: OP(M)C\mathcal{O}_P(M)\neq\mathbb{C}, average quadratic curvature decay, and maximal volume growth. Average quadratic curvature decay means that, for every r>0r>0,

\XintB(p,r)SCr2,\Xint-_{B(p,r)} S\leq \frac{C}{r^2},

where pp is a point on MM, CC is a positive constant independent of rr, and SS is the scalar curvature. Here \Xint\Xint- denotes the average. This conjecture concerns the relationship between holomorphic functions of polynomial growth, curvature decay, and volume growth in complete Kähler manifolds with nonnegative bisectional curvature; the supplied source does not establish its resolution.
