Is there a proper smooth variety in characteristic $p$ whose Hodge-to-de Rham spectral sequence does not degenerate at $E_1$?
By Deligne-Illusie, such a variety has no lifting to $W_2(k)$. In their paper they state that they do not know if such an example exists. Has this question been answered since then?
