Semi-regularity conjecture via the universal obstruction space

Let XX be a smooth projective variety over a field kk of characteristic zero, and let YXY\subset X be a closed locally complete intersection subvariety of codimension pp. Let Hilb\mathrm{\mathbb{H}ilb} be the local Hilbert functor, let OHilbO_{\mathrm{\mathbb{H}ilb}} be its universal obstruction space, and let

[ve]:OHilbH1(NY/X)[v_e]:O_{\mathrm{\mathbb{H}ilb}}\to H^{1}(N_{Y/X})

be the natural linear monomorphism. Let H1(NY/X)Hp+1(ΩX/kp1)H^{1}(N_{Y/X})\to H^{p+1}(\Omega_{X/k}^{p-1}) be the semi-regularity map. Bloch's semi-regularity conjecture. The composition of morphisms of kk-vector spaces

OHilb[ve]H1(NY/X)Hp+1(ΩX/kp1)O_{\mathrm{\mathbb{H}ilb}}\xrightarrow{[v_e]}H^{1}(N_{Y/X})\to H^{p+1}(\Omega_{X/k}^{p-1})

is trivial. This is an equivalent formulation of the assertion that the semi-regularity map annihilates all obstructions to embedded deformations of YY in XX.
