Vanishing conjecture for log-pluricanonical sheaves with standard coefficients

Let (X,Δ)(X,\Delta) be a proper slc pair over a field of characteristic 00 such that KX+ΔK_X+\Delta is ample. Fix an integer m2m\geq 2, and suppose that the coefficients of Δ\Delta satisfy

coeffΔ{12,23,34,,1}[11m,1].\operatorname{coeff}\Delta\subset \left\{\tfrac12,\tfrac23,\tfrac34,\dots,1\right\}\cup \left[1-\tfrac1m,1\right].

Vanishing conjecture. The higher cohomology of the mm-th reflexive log-pluricanonical sheaf vanishes:

Hi(X,ωX[m](mΔ))=0for all i>0.H^i\bigl(X,\omega_X^{[m]}(\lfloor m\Delta\rfloor)\bigr)=0\qquad\text{for all }i>0.

This vanishing would extend the known surface results to proper slc pairs in arbitrary dimension and, via cohomology and base change, would yield invariance and base-change results for log-plurigenera in stable families. The statement is presented in the source as a conjectural vanishing theorem; no resolution is supplied here.
