Theorem · version 3

The unrestricted compact Kähler extension is false

Statement

The assertion that every rational (p,p) class on every compact Kähler manifold is a rational combination of analytic cycle classes is false; complex-torus counterexamples are recorded in the cited description.

Assumptions

  • Compact Kähler complex manifolds, without the projectivity assumption.
  • Analytic cycle classes and rational coefficients.

Scope

A refuted different-domain extension; it is not a counterexample among smooth projective varieties.

Dropping projectivity changes the class of spaces and yields a false extension.

A proof of rational Hodge must use the smooth projective setting; these counterexamples have a different domain.

Open · version 2

For every smooth projective variety X over C and 0 ≤ p ≤ dim X, the rational cycle-class map CH^p(X)⊗Q → H^{2p}(X,Q) ∩ H^{p,p}(X) is surjective.

  • Smooth, projective and defined over C.
  • Rational coefficients; the intersection is taken after complexification.

Scope: All varieties and codimensions. A representative may be a rational combination of cycles, without positivity or uniqueness.
