Calabi-Yau manifolds are higher dimensional generalizations of elliptic curves and K3 surfaces. They can be defined as the compact complex Kähler manifolds with trivial canonical bundle, and play a central role in mirror symmetry. This tag can also be used for Calabi-Yau algebras and categories. These algebraic notions are inspired by the properties of the derived categories of coherent sheaves on Calabi-Yau manifolds.

Are Calabi-Yau manifolds in dimension >= 3 algebraic?

I believe that I once saw a statement that every compact, smooth Calabi-Yau manifold in dimension at least 3 is algebraic, but I can remember neither the reference nor the proof (which would have been …
