Let $X$ be a $n$-dimensional complex torus and $\omega$ a Kähler form on $X$. Then, it is well known that a real $(1,1)$-class $[\alpha]\in H^{1,1}(X,\mathbb R)$ is a Kähler class if and only if for all $1\le j\le n$ one has $$ \int_X\alpha^j\wedge\omega^{n-j}>0. $$ In particular, if $L\to X$ is a holomorphic line bundle, then $L$ is ample (and hence $X$ is an abelian variety) if and only if $$ c_{1}(L)^j\cdot[\omega]^{n-j}>0,\quad 1\le j\le n. $$

Question. Is it known any similar numerical criterion for higher rank holomorphic vector bundle on complex tori?

I would be interested also in weaker forms of this question. For instance, adding the hypothesis of semi-stability for the vector bundle, or possibly just requiring the vector bundle to be big instead of ample.

Any hint or comment is very welcome!

Ample vector bundles on complex tori

Let $X$ be a $n$-dimensional complex torus and $\omega$ a Kähler form on $X$. Then, it is well known that a real $(1,1)$-class $[\alpha]\in H^{1,1}(X,\mathbb R)$ is a Kähler class if and only if for all $1\le j\le n$ one has $$ \int_X\alpha^j\wedge\omega^{n-j}>0. $$ In particular, if $L\to X$ is a holomorphic line bundle, then $L$ is ample (and hence $X$ is an abelian variety) if and only if $$ c_{1}(L)^j\cdot[\omega]^{n-j}>0,\quad 1\le j\le n. $$
