Countability conjecture for decomposable transcendental Hodge structures of surface families

At least 8 years old · documented by

Let f:S→Bf: \mathcal{S} \to B be a smooth projective family of complex surfaces over an irreducible base. For a fiber SbS_b of ff, let TSb\mathcal{T}_{S_b} denote its transcendental polarized Hodge structure.

Countability conjecture. There are at most countably many integral polarized Hodge structures TSb\mathcal{T}_{S_b}, arising from the fibers SbS_b of ff, which are decomposable.

This conjecture is intended to imply the irrationality of a very general cubic fourfold: decomposable transcendental Hodge structures arising from surfaces would occur in only countably many cases. The supplied text gives no resolution of the conjecture.
