On the Hopf Problem and a Conjecture of Liu-Maxim-Wang

Abstract

We discuss an approach towards the Hopf problem for aspherical smooth projective varieties recently proposed by Liu, Maxim, and Wang in [LMW21]. In complex dimension two, we point out that this circle of ideas suggests an intriguing conjecture regarding the geography of aspherical surfaces of general type.
