Huybrechts' projectivity and bigness conjecture for holomorphic symplectic manifolds

About 27 years old · traced to

Let FF be an irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifold. Let Pic⁡(F)\operatorname{Pic}(F) be its Picard group, equipped with the Beauville form, and suppose that FF has a polarization gg. Define

Λ+(F,g)={v∈Pic⁡(F):(v,g)>0, (v,v)>0}.\Lambda_+(F,g)=\{v\in \operatorname{Pic}(F): (v,g)>0,\ (v,v)>0\}.

Huybrechts' projectivity and bigness conjecture.

  1. FF is projective if and only if there exists a class g∈Pic⁡(F)g\in \operatorname{Pic}(F) with (g,g)>0(g,g)>0.
  2. If gg is a polarization for FF, then every class λ∈Λ+(F,g)\lambda\in\Lambda_+(F,g) is big.

These statements were conjectured by Huybrechts and are used to connect the Beauville-form positivity conditions with projectivity and birational geometry. The source notes that they had appeared elsewhere with an incomplete proof, but supplies no definitive resolution here.
