Fujita's conjecture B_n on projective manifolds with homology-cell divisors

Let MM be an nn-dimensional projective manifold and let DD be a smooth ample divisor on MM. Suppose that the natural homomorphism

Hk(D;Z)Hk(M;Z)H_k(D;\mathbb{Z})\longrightarrow H_k(M;\mathbb{Z})

is bijective for 0k2(n1)0\leq k\leq 2(n-1). Fujita's conjecture BnB_n. Then MPnM\cong\mathbb{P}^n and DD is a hyperplane on it. This is the intermediate member of Fujita's three related conjectures and concerns complements whose homology is that of a cell; the source supplies no resolution, so the conjecture remains open.
