Conjecture on control of higher eigenvalues of anticanonical powers

Let MM be a Fano manifold of dimension nn. For a natural number mm such that KMmK_M^{-m} is very ample, consider the eigenvalues associated with KMmK_M^{-m}.

Higher-eigenvalue control conjecture. For each natural number kk such that 2kn2\leq k\leq n, the kk-th eigenvalue of KMmK_M^{-m} is controlled.

Control of these eigenvalues is the hypothesis underlying the paper's higher-alpha-invariant criterion for the existence of Kähler–Einstein metrics. The statement generalizes the control of the second eigenvalue that is essentially established in Tian's work for k=2k=2; its validity for all kk is left as a conjecture.
