Classification conjecture for toric 2-Fano manifolds
A toric 2-Fano manifold is a smooth projective toric variety that is Fano and whose second Chern character satisfies
for every surface . Projective spaces are examples of toric 2-Fano manifolds.
Toric 2-Fano classification conjecture. The only toric 2-Fano manifolds are projective spaces.
The conjecture would complete the classification of toric 2-Fano manifolds. Despite extensive work on special classes, projective spaces remain the only known examples.
