Mori–Mukai's characterization conjecture for projective space

Let XX be a smooth Fano variety of dimension nn over an algebraically closed field, and let CXC\subseteq X be a rational curve. Mori–Mukai's characterization conjecture. If

(KXC)n+1(-K_X\cdot C)\ge n+1

for every rational curve CXC\subseteq X, then XX is isomorphic to the nn-dimensional projective space Pn\mathbf{P}^n. This conjecture proposes a numerical characterization of projective space among smooth Fano varieties. The supplied text gives no resolution status.
