"Geometry of Bogomolov-Guan manifolds"

In 90-s Guan published a series of papers constructing non-Kähler holomorphic symplectic manifolds, challenging a conjecture by Todorov. These examples were later constructed by Bogomolov in a different way and are called now BG manifolds. His construction emphasizes the analogy with the Kodaira-Thurston example of non-Kähler symplectic surfaces. In this talk we will discuss the geometry of such manifolds: their submanifolds and algebraic reduction to P^n; and the deformation theory of them, which is quite similar to that of the hyperkähler case.
