Ekedahl–Shepherd-Barron–Taylor conjecture on algebraic integrability of foliations

About 4 years old · traced to

Let XX be a complex projective manifold, and let F50AF50A be a holomorphic foliation on XX with an integral model (X,F)(\mathscr X,\mathscr F) defined over a finitely generated Z\mathbb Z-algebra RR. The reduction of this model at a closed point p\mathfrak p of residue characteristic pp is denoted by Fp\mathcal F_{\mathfrak p}; it is pp-closed when it is closed under the pp-th power operation on vector fields. The foliation is algebraically integrable when all its leaves are algebraic.

Ekedahl–Shepherd-Barron–Taylor conjecture. The foliation F\mathcal F is algebraically integrable if and only if Fp\mathcal F_{\mathfrak p} is pp-closed for every closed point p\mathfrak p in a non-empty Zariski open subset of Spec⁡(R)\operatorname{Spec}(R).

This conjecture proposes a criterion for algebraic integrability in terms of reductions in positive characteristic. The supplied text does not state whether it has been resolved.
