The Kähler contraction conjecture for null loci

About 11 years old · traced to

Let XX be a compact Kähler manifold and let [α][\alpha] be a nef and big (1,1)(1,1) class which is not Kähler, with [α]+λc1(X)[\alpha]+\lambda c_1(X) a Kähler class for some λ>0\lambda>0. Let Null⁡(α)\operatorname{Null}(\alpha) denote the null locus of [α][\alpha]. Kähler contraction conjecture. There is a bimeromorphic morphism π:X→Y\pi:X\to Y onto a normal Kähler space YY such that

Exc⁡(π)=Null⁡(α)\operatorname{Exc}(\pi)=\operatorname{Null}(\alpha)

and [α]=π∗[ωY][\alpha]=\pi^*[\omega_Y] for some Kähler class [ωY][\omega_Y] on YY. The source calls this stronger statement true in the projective case and notes that it is easy in dimension two, with partial results in dimension three.
