Positivity conjecture for the Hull–Strominger moduli-space metric
Positivity conjecture for the Hull–Strominger moduli-space metric
Let be a Calabi–Yau threefold with bundle admitting a solution of the Hull–Strominger system. Let and denote the complexified variations of the Aeppli and balanced classes of nearby solutions, and let be the balanced class of the solution. Positivity conjecture. The fibrewise moduli-space metric is positive definite. In particular, the variations satisfy
This is a physical prediction for the moduli space of Hull–Strominger solutions, asserting positivity of the metric along the fibres and constraining variations of the Aeppli and balanced classes. The source presents it as a prediction rather than a proved result.
