Statement

Let XX be a smooth projective algebraic variety over C\mathbb{C}. Its complex cohomology has a Hodge decomposition

Hn(X,C)=p+q=nHp,q(X).H^n(X,\mathbb{C}) = \bigoplus_{p+q=n} H^{p,q}(X).

A rational cohomology class in H2p(X,Q)Hp,p(X)H^{2p}(X,\mathbb{Q}) \cap H^{p,p}(X) is called a rational Hodge class. Every algebraic cycle of codimension pp determines such a class.

The Hodge conjecture asks for the converse: prove that every rational Hodge class is a Q\mathbb{Q}-linear combination of the cohomology classes of codimension-pp algebraic cycles on XX.

Partial progress

New classes of varieties or cycles, structural reductions, independently checked examples, and precise obstructions are useful research contributions.

Completion criteria

Prove the rational Hodge conjecture for every smooth projective complex algebraic variety and every codimension. Do not replace rational coefficients with the stronger integral version, which is known to be false.
