In the answer to <a href="http://mathoverflow.net/questions/2071/non-finitely-generated-ring-of-regular-functions/"> this </a> question we saw that <a href="http://math.stanford.edu/~vakil/files/nonfg.pdf"> there exists </a> a nonsingular quasi-projective threefold over a field with non-finitely generated global sections. I was talking about this previous question today and the following question came up - given any countably generated k-algebra R where k is a field does there exist some quasi-projective variety X (namely an integral separated scheme of finite type over k) such that the ring of global sections of X is R?
