Schnell's fiber-space conjecture is the assertion that a morphism with connected fibers between smooth connected projective complex varieties
with geometric generic fiber
of Kodaira dimension
zero satisfies
if
is pseudo-effective for some positive integer
and ample Cartier divisor
on
. The ample comparison is essential. For example, a product
of an elliptic curve with
has fibers of Kodaira dimension
zero over
,
but total Kodaira dimension
and fails that numerical hypothesis.
