Demailly's conjecture on Waldschmidt constants of point ideals

About 5 years old · traced to

Suppose that kk is an algebraically closed field of characteristic 00, and let II be the defining ideal of a set of points X⊆PknX\subseteq \mathbb{P}^n_k. For an ideal JJ, let α(J)\alpha(J) denote the least degree of a nonzero homogeneous element of JJ, and let m∈Nm\in\mathbb{N}. Demailly's conjecture. For every integer h>1h>1, one has

α(I(h))h≥α(I(m))+n−1m+n−1.\frac{\alpha(I^{(h)})}{h}\geq \frac{\alpha(I^{(m)})+n-1}{m+n-1}.

This generalizes Chudnovsky's lower bound and concerns asymptotic degree growth in symbolic powers of point ideals; the supplied text gives no resolution status.
