Voisin's gonality conjecture for very general abelian varieties

At least 6 years old · documented by

Let k∈Z>0k\in\mathbb{Z}_{>0}, and let AA be a very general abelian variety. Its gonality is the least degree of a nonconstant map from a smooth projective curve to AA. Voisin's gonality conjecture. If AA has dimension at least 2k−12k-1, then its gonality is at least k+1k+1.

This is Voisin's proposed linear bound on the gonality of very general abelian varieties, improving the known exponential upper bound for the dimension needed to exclude positive-dimensional orbits of degree kk.
