Matsumura–Wu structure conjecture for compact Kähler manifolds with nef anti-canonical bundle

Let XX be a compact Kähler manifold with nef anti-canonical bundle KX-K_X. A fibration is a surjective holomorphic map with connected fibers, and it is locally constant when its fibers are locally biholomorphic in the appropriate local trivializations. A compact Kähler manifold YY has c1(Y)=0c_1(Y)=0 when its first Chern class vanishes, and a variety is rationally connected when any two general points can be joined by a rational curve. Matsumura–Wu's conjecture. There exists a fibration

φ ⁣:XY\varphi\colon X\to Y

that is locally constant, where YY is a compact Kähler manifold with c1(Y)=0c_1(Y)=0 and the fiber FF of φ\varphi is rationally connected.

This conjecture extends structure results for manifolds with nef tangent bundles and for manifolds with non-negative holomorphic bisectional curvature. The supplied text does not indicate whether it has been resolved.
