Suppose $M$ is a Moishezon manifold with $c_1(M)=0$ in $H^2(M,\mathbb{R})$. Does it follow that $K_M$ is torsion in $\mathrm{Pic}(M)$?
This is true whenever $M$ is Kähler (and therefore projective) ...

(1/2) K3 surface or half-K3 surface: Ways to think about it?
I heard from string theorists thinking of the so-called "(1/2) K3 surface" or "half-K3 surface" as follows:
Let $T^2 \times S^1$ be a 3-torus with spin structure periodic in all directions. $T^2 \...
