The Stein-degree boundedness conjecture for boundary components over characteristic-zero fields

Let dNd\in \mathbb N, let tR>0t\in \mathbb R^{>0}, and let KK be a field of characteristic zero. Let (X,B)(X,B) be a log Calabi–Yau pair over KK of dimension dd, and let SS be a component of BB whose coefficient in BB is at least tt. For the morphism SSpecKS\to \operatorname{Spec}K, define its Stein degree by

sdeg(S/SpecK)=dimKH0(S,OS).\operatorname{sdeg}(S/\operatorname{Spec}K)=\dim_K H^0(S,\mathcal O_S).

Stein-degree boundedness conjecture over non-closed fields. The quantity

sdeg(S/SpecK)\operatorname{sdeg}(S/\operatorname{Spec}K)

is bounded from above depending only on dd and tt.

This is the analogous conjecture over non-closed fields, motivated by arithmetic applications such as varieties over number fields. The source presents it as a formulation of interest rather than a resolved result.
