Nori's conjecture for Chow groups of a general hypersurface
Let be a smooth projective variety, let be a very ample line bundle on , and let parametrize hypersurfaces defined by sections of . Write for the function field of , let be its algebraic closure, and let be the generic hypersurface. The inclusion induces a restriction map on Chow groups.
Nori's conjecture. If is sufficiently large, then the natural map
is an isomorphism for and an inclusion for .
The conjecture predicts that, in the indicated codimensions, a sufficiently general high-degree hypersurface acquires no new rational Chow classes beyond those coming from the ambient variety, with the boundary codimension allowing injectivity rather than surjectivity.
