Siu's conjecture on deformation invariance of plurigenera for compact Kähler manifolds

Less than 1 year old · traced to

Let π:X→Δ\pi:X\to\Delta be a smooth family of compact Kähler manifolds over the unit disk in C\mathbb{C}, with fiber XtX_t. For a positive integer m≥1m\geq 1, define the mm-genus by

Pm(Xt):=dim⁡H0(Xt,mKXt).P_m(X_t):=\operatorname{dim}H^0(X_t,mK_{X_t}).

Siu's conjecture. The mm-genus Pm(Xt)P_m(X_t) is independent of t∈Δt\in\Delta. The problem is widely open for smooth Kähler families, although deformation invariance is known in several projective and Moishezon settings and recent work gives partial progress.
