The generalized Mukai conjecture asserts that a positive-dimensional smooth connected complex Fano manifold of dimension ,
Picard number , and pseudoindex
satisfies
with equality precisely when
It strengthens the index formulation by using the smallest anticanonical rational-curve
degree instead of divisibility in the Picard group .
When ,
the inequality is strict since .
