Abundance conjecture for rational nef classes on projective Calabi–Yau manifolds

Let XX be a projective Calabi–Yau manifold of dimension nn, and let [α]C[\alpha]\in\overline{\mathcal{C}} be a nef class satisfying

Xαn=0\int_X\alpha^n=0

and [α]H2(X,Q)[\alpha]\in H^2(X,\mathbb{Q}). A nef class is semiample when it arises from a holomorphic fibration in the sense described in the source.

Abundance conjecture. The class [α][\alpha] is semiample.

This is a well-known conjecture in algebraic geometry. The source states that it remains open starting in dimension 33.
