Mukai's conjecture on syzygies of adjoint line bundles on surfaces

From papers

Let XX be a surface and let AA be an ample line bundle on XX. For an integer p0p\geq 0 and an integer \ell, set L=KX+AL=K_X+\ell A. Mukai's conjecture. The line bundle LL satisfies Property-(Np)(N_p) for all p+4\ell\geq p+4. This is described as an open problem generalizing Green's theorem on syzygies of curves to surfaces; the asserted bound concerns adjoint linear series on arbitrary surfaces.
