Positivity conjecture for cohomology LL-classes of projective space

About 2 years old · traced to

Let nn be a positive integer, let Pn\mathbb{P}^n be complex projective space, and let L2j(Pn)∈H4j(Pn,Q)L^{2j}(\mathbb{P}^n)\in H^{4j}(\mathbb{P}^n,\mathbb{Q}) denote its degree-4j4j cohomology LL-class. Positivity conjecture for projective-space LL-classes. For every integer jj with 0≤j≤n/20\leq j\leq n/2,

L2j(Pn)>0.L^{2j}(\mathbb{P}^n)>0.

This proposes positivity of all cohomology LL-class components of projective space. The source gives no evidence of a resolution.
