Ample vector bundles without Griffiths-semipositive metrics
Abstract
We construct a rank-two ample holomorphic vector bundle on an abelian surface that admits no smooth Griffiths-semipositive Hermitian metric, thereby giving a counterexample to the Griffiths conjecture. The proof combines a curvature obstruction that persists under deformations with the openness of ampleness in an irreducible moduli space of stable sheaves.
