Green–Griffiths implication for the second Chow-group filtration over number fields

Let kk be a number field and let XX be a smooth projective variety over kk. Write XC=X×Spec(k)Spec(C)X_{\mathbb C}=X\times_{\operatorname{Spec}(k)}\operatorname{Spec}(\mathbb C). The filtration on CHp(X)QCH^p(X)_{\mathbb Q} is induced from the second step of the filtration on CHp(XC)QCH^p(X_{\mathbb C})_{\mathbb Q} under the natural map

CHp(X)CHp(XC).CH^p(X)\longrightarrow CH^p(X_{\mathbb C}).

Green–Griffiths implication. The induced second filtration step vanishes:

F2CHp(X)Q=0.F^2CH^p(X)_{\mathbb Q}=0.

This is presented as an implication proposed by Green and Griffiths in the context of Hodge-theoretic filtrations on Chow groups. Its general validity for smooth projective varieties over number fields remains open in the source.
