    Abstract: Provided is a block copolymer that can serve as a precursor of a hydrogenated block copolymer. The block copolymer includes polymer blocks [A] and [B]. The polymer block [A] includes a polycyclic aromatic vinyl monomer unit including at least two monocycles selected from the group consisting of aromatic hydrocarbon monocycles and aromatic heteromonocycles. A mass ratio of proportional content of 1,2-vinyl bonds and proportional content of 1,4-vinyl bonds in the block copolymer is not less than 5/95 and not more than 90/10.

    Abstract: A phase difference film composed of a resin containing a copolymer including polymerization units A and B, the phase difference film including a cylindrical phase separation structure that generates a structural birefringence, the phase separation structure including a phase (A) having the polymerization unit A as a main component and a phase (B) having the polymerization unit B as a main component, and the phase difference film satisfying the following condition (1) or (2). Condition (1): D(A)>D(B) and f(B)>0.5, and a direction giving a maximum refractive index among in-plane directions and an orientation direction of a cylinder in the phase separation structure are parallel to each other. Condition (2): D(A)>D(B) and f(A)>0.5, and a direction giving a maximum refractive index among in-plane directions and an orientation direction of a cylinder in the phase separation structure are orthogonal to each other.
