The Campana-Peternell conjecture on Fano manifolds with nef tangent bundle, in dimension six
Theorem 1.1: every smooth connected complex projective Fano sixfold with nef tangent bundle is rational homogeneous. The new step is Picard number one and pseudoindex five, where a characteristic-number identity 32−20u+3u2=0 forces the VMRT to be the Segre threefold P1×P2⊂P5, so X≅Gr(2,5). Corollary 1.2: a compact Kahler manifold with nef tangent bundle and dimX−q~(X)≤6 has universal cover F×Cq~(X) with F rational homogeneous. Dimensions seven and higher remain open.
