# Moishezon manifold vs proper complex variety

Does there exist a closed Moishezon manifold that does not have the homotopy type of the analytification of a smooth proper complex variety (I think we know that every closed Moishezon manifold is bimeromorophic to the analytification of a smooth proper complex variety, so for example fundamental groups have to be the same)?

Does there exist a smooth proper complex variety whose analytification is not homotopy equivalent to the analytification of a smooth projective complex variety?

• By the way, not every Moishezon manifold comes from a proper complex variety; it might be an algebraic space instead of a scheme. There is an example due to Kleiman which is a quotient of Hironaka's example. – Ben Dec 9 '18 at 12:47
• @Ben that is true of course but we are interested in whether that distinction is visible at the topological level – user132250 Dec 9 '18 at 13:03
• Sorry, I'm a bit off today. I misunderstood something you wrote.. (I thought you were suggesting hat every Moishezon manifold is the analytification of a proper variety.) – Ben Dec 9 '18 at 13:12

The only example I am aware of is due to Oguiso, Two remarks on Calabi-Yau Moishezon threefolds, J. reine angew. Math. 452 (1994). There, you find a construction of a Moishezon threefold $$X$$ with $$H^2(X) = \mathbb{Z}c$$ where $$c^3 = 0$$. In particular, $$X$$ is not even homotopy equivalent to a Kähler manifold.
