Moishezon manifold


In mathematics, a Moishezon manifold is a compact complex manifold such that the field of meromorphic functions on each component has transcendence degree equal the complex dimension of the component:
Complex algebraic varieties have this property, but the converse is not true: Hironaka's example gives a smooth 3-dimensional Moishezon manifold that is not an algebraic variety or scheme. showed that a Moishezon manifold is a projective algebraic variety if and only if it admits a Kähler metric. showed that any Moishezon manifold carries an algebraic space structure; more precisely, the category of Moishezon spaces is equivalent with the category of algebraic spaces that are proper over.
