Griffiths' conjecture on positivity of Chern–Weil forms

From papers

Let (E,h)X(E,h)\to X be a Griffiths semipositive Hermitian holomorphic vector bundle. Let PP be a non-negative combination of Schur polynomials, and let P(c(E,h))P\big(c_{\bullet}(E,h)\big) denote the differential form obtained by formally evaluating PP in the Chern forms of (E,h)(E,h). Griffiths' conjecture. The differential form

P(c(E,h))P\big(c_{\bullet}(E,h)\big)

is positive. This is a classical positivity question for characteristic forms associated with Griffiths semipositive vector bundles; the source describes the statement as a modification of Griffiths' original conjecture.
