RC-positivity, ampleness, and positivity of tautological bundles

About 8 years old · traced to

Let XX be a projective manifold and let E\mathscr E be a holomorphic vector bundle on XX. Write OE(1){\mathcal O}_{\mathscr E}(1) for the tautological line bundle on P(E∗){\mathbb P}(\mathscr E^*), and let dim⁡X\dim X denote the dimension of XX.

RC-positivity equivalence conjecture. The following statements are equivalent:

  1. OE∗(−1){\mathcal O}_{\mathscr E^*}(-1) is RC-positive.
  2. OE(1){\mathcal O}_{\mathscr E}(1) is (dim⁡X−1)(\dim X-1)-ample.
  3. OE(1){\mathcal O}_{\mathscr E}(1) is (dim⁡X−1)(\dim X-1)-positive.
  4. E\mathscr E is RC-positive.

The source says that (4)⟹(3)⟹(2)⟺(1)(4)\Longrightarrow(3)\Longrightarrow(2)\Longleftrightarrow(1) are known, and that the equivalence is proved when rank⁡(E)=1\operatorname{rank}(\mathscr E)=1 or dim⁡X=1\dim X=1. The remaining implications are open in general.
