What kind of line bundles have Chern class of Hodge type (2,0) or (0,2)?

If $L$ is a complex line bundle on a topological space $X$, let $c_1(L)$ denote the image of its Chern class in $H^2(X;C)$. A complex manifold structure on $X$ [ok which is also compact and say ...

Line bundles: from transition functions to divisors

Recently I was thinking about how local systems are the same thing as vector bundles with flat connection, and how representations of the fundamental group gave rise to vector bundles. This got me ...
