The Hodge-Riemann-to-Bogomolov pair conjecture

Let XX be a compact complex manifold, and let (ηd1,ηd2)(\eta_{d-1},\eta_{d-2}) be a pair of cohomology classes. A pair is Hodge-Riemann if it satisfies the Hodge-Riemann relations, and it is a Bogomolov pair if every torsion-free sheaf semistable with respect to ηd1\eta_{d-1} satisfies the corresponding discriminant inequality against ηd2\eta_{d-2}. Let Ampd1(X)\operatorname{Amp}^{d-1}(X) denote the relevant ample cone and Kd1(X)\mathcal K^{d-1}(X) the relevant Kähler cone. Hodge-Riemann-to-Bogomolov pair conjecture. If (ηd1,ηd2)(\eta_{d-1},\eta_{d-2}) is a Hodge-Riemann pair and

ηd1Ampd1(X)orηd1Kd1(X),\eta_{d-1}\in \operatorname{Amp}^{d-1}(X)\quad\text{or}\quad\eta_{d-1}\in \mathcal K^{d-1}(X),

then (ηd1,ηd2)(\eta_{d-1},\eta_{d-2}) is a Bogomolov pair. This specializes the general conjecture to Hodge-Riemann pairs whose first class lies in the ample or Kähler cone; the supplied text gives no resolution status beyond presenting the assertion in a conjecture environment.
