Rigidity conjecture for Calabi–Yau families with isolated singularities
Let be a flat family of -dimensional polarized smooth Calabi–Yau manifolds over a quasiprojective curve . Let be a projective smooth compactification of with a boundary point . Suppose that the family extends to a flat family such that the total space is smooth and the singular fiber has only isolated singularities. Rigidity conjecture. Under these assumptions, the family is rigid. Known nonrigid Calabi–Yau families tend to have singular fibers whose singular loci have positive dimension; the conjecture proposes that isolated singularities in a suitable compactification obstruct non-rigidity. The supplied text does not state whether the conjecture has been resolved.
