% Since this a solution template for a generic talk, very little can
% be said about how it should be structured. However, the talk length
% of between 15min and 45min and the theme suggest that you stick to
% the following rules:  

% - Exactly two or three sections (other than the summary).
% - At *most* three subsections per section.
% - Talk about 30s to 2min per frame. So there should be between about
%   15 and 30 frames, all told.

One can construct in this way every compact complex manifold $X$.

What if $(X,\omega)$ is K\"ahler ? Can one embed in such a way that
$\omega$ is the pull-back of a transversal K\"ahler structure on

If $Z$ is an Abelian variety and $N\ge 2n$,

Let $\Gamma^\infty(X,Z,\mathcal{D})$ the Fr\'echet manifold of transverse

\begin{block}{Theorem (D - Gaussier, 2014)}
Let $f:X \hookrightarrow(Z,\cD)$ be a smooth transverse embedding.
Assume that $f$ and the torsion 
tensor $\theta$ of $\mathcal{D}$ satisfy the following additional 
conditions$\,:$
\vskip3pt
{\rm(ii)} $f$ is a totally real embedding, i.e.\ 
$\alert{\overline\partial f(x)}
\in\End_{\overline{\mathbb{C}}}(T_{X,x},T_{Z,f(x)})$ is 
\alert{injective} at every point $x\in X\,;$
\vskip3pt
{\rm(ii)} for every $x\in X$ and every
$\eta\in \End_{\overline{\mathbb{C}}}(T_X)$, there exists a vector
$\lambda\in\mathcal{D}_{f(x)}$ such that $\theta(\overline\partial f(x)\cdot
\xi,\lambda)=\eta(\xi)$ for all $\xi\in T_X$.
\vskip3pt
Then there is a neighborhood $\mathcal{U}$ of $f$ in 
$\Gamma^\infty(X,Z,\mathcal{D})$ and a neighborhood $\mathcal {V}$ of $J_f$ in 
$\mathcal{J}^\infty(X)$ such that\vskip3pt
\alert{\centerline{%
$\mathcal{U}\to\mathcal{V}$, $f\mapsto J_f$ is a submersion.}}
\end{block}

{\bf Remark.} A necessary condition for (ii) to be possible is that
$\rank\cD=N-n\ge n^2=\dim\End(T_X)$, i.e.\ \alert{$N\ge n+n^2$}.

\frametitle{Existence of universal embedding spaces}
\vskip-4pt
\begin{block}{Theorem (D - Gaussier, 2014)}
For all integers $n\ge 1$ and $k\ge 4n$, there exists a complex affine 
algebraic manifold $Z_{n,k}$ of dimension \alert{$N=2k+2(k^2+n(k-n))$}
possessing a real structure $($i.e.\ an anti-holomorphic algebraic 
involution$)$ and an algebraic distribution $\cD_{n,k}\subset T_{Z_{n,k}}$ of 
codimension $n$, with the following property:\vskip2pt\pause
for every compact $n$-dimensional almost complex manifold $(X,J)$ admits
an embedding $f:X\hookrightarrow Z^{\mathbb{R}}_{n,k}$ transverse to 
$\cD_{n,k}$ and contained in the real part of $Z_{n,k}$,
such that \alert{$J=J_f$}.
\end{block}
\pause

The choice $k=4n$ yields the explicit embedding dimension 
$N=38n^2 + 8n$ (and a quadratic bound $N=O(n^2)$ is optimal
by what we have seen previously).\pause\vskip3pt

\alert{\bf Hint.} $Z_{n,k}$ is 
produced by a fiber space construction mixing Grassmannians
and twistor spaces.
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Construction of the universal embedding}

\alert{\bf First observation.} There exists a $C^\infty$ embedding
$\varphi:X\hookrightarrow\bR^{2k}$, $k\geq 4n$, by the Whitney
embedding theorem, and one can assume
$N_{\varphi(X)}=(T_{\varphi(X)})^\perp$ to carry a complex structure
for $k\geq 8n$; otherwise take
$\Phi=\varphi\times\varphi:X\hookrightarrow \bR^{2k}\times\bR^{2k}$ and observe
that\vskip4pt
\alert{\centerline{$N_{\Phi(X)}\simeq N_X\oplus N_X\oplus T_X\simeq
(\bC\otimes_\bR\!N_X)\oplus (T_X,J).$}}\pause\vskip8pt

\alert{\bf Second step.} Assuming $(N_X,J')$ almost complex, let $Z^\bR_{n,k}$ be
the set of triples $(x,S,J)$ such that $S\in\Gr^\bR(2k,2n)$, $\codim S=2n$,
$J\in\End(\bR^{2k})$, $J^2=-\Id$, $J(S)\subset S$. Define\vskip4pt
\alert{\centerline{$f:X\to Z^\bR_{n,k},~~
x\mapsto (\varphi(x),N_{\varphi(X),\varphi(x)},\widetilde J(x))$}}
where $\widetilde J$ is induced by $J(x)\oplus J'(x)$ on
$\varphi_*T_X\oplus N_X$.\pause\vskip8pt

\alert{\bf Third step.} Complexify $Z^\bR_{n,k}$ as a variety
$Z_{n,k}=Z_{n,k}^\bC$ and define an algebraic distribution
$\cD_{n,k}\subset T_{Z_{n,k}}$.
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Definition of $Z_{n,k}$ and $\cD_{n,k}$}

We let $Z_{n,k}=Z_{n,k}^\bC$ be the set of triples\vskip4pt
\alert{\centerline{$(z,S,J)\in\bC^{2k}\times \Gr^\bC(2k,2n)\times
\End(\bC^{2k})$}}\vskip4pt
with $J^2=-\Id$, $J(S)=S$. Moreover we assume that we have ``balanced''
decompositions\vskip4pt
\alert{\centerline{\hbox{\strut\kern4cm\vbox{
      $S=S'\oplus S'',~~~~~\dim S'=\dim S''=n$,\\

for the $i$ and $-i$ eigenspaces of $J_{|S}$ and $J$,
$S'\subset\Sigma'$, $S''\subset\Sigma''$.\vskip4pt\pause

Finally, if $\pi=\pr_1:Z_{n,k}\to\bC^{2k}$ is the first projection, we take
$\cD_{n,k}$ at point $w=(z,S,J)$ to be\vskip4pt
\alert{\centerline{$\cD_{n,k,\,w}:=(d\pi)^{-1}(S'\oplus \Sigma'')$.}}
\vskip4pt\pause

Since $\bC^{2k}=\Sigma'\oplus\Sigma''$, we have\vskip4pt

$(T_{Z_{n,k}}/\cD_{n,k})_w\simeq \Sigma'/S'$,}}\vskip4pt
which on real points, is isomorphic to $(S^\bR)^\perp$.

\begin{block}{Theorem (D - Gaussier, 2014)}
There also exist universal embedding spaces for compact almost complex

\begin{block}{Theorem (D - Gaussier, 2014)}
There exist universal embedding spaces \hbox{$(W\!,\cE{,}\cS)\,{=}\,
(W_{n,k}{,}\cE_{n,k}{,}\cS_{n,k})$\kern-15pt}\\
where $\dim W_{n,k}<\dim Z_{n,k}+n(\dim Z_{n,k}-2n)=O(nk^2)=O(n^3)$,
and $\cS\subset\cE\subset T_W$ are algebraic
subsheaves satisfying $[\cS,\cS]\subset\cE$ (partial integrability),
such that every compact $\bC$-manifold $(X,J)$ of given
dimension $n$ embeds transversally by $f:X\hookrightarrow(W_{n,k},\cE_{n,k})$,
i.e.\ $J=J_f$, with the additional constraint
\alert{$\Im(\overline\partial f)\subset\cS_{n,k}$}.
\end{block}\pause

{\bf Proof.} By the Nijenhuis tensor formula, since
$\overline\partial_{J_f}f$ is injective with values in $\cD_{n,k}$, we see that
$S=\overline\partial_{J_f}f(T_{X,x})\subset \cD_{n,k,f(x)}$ must be an
$n$-dimensional complex subspace of $\cD_{n,k,\,x}\subset T_{Z,f(x)}$
that is totally isotropic
for $\theta$, i.e.\ $\theta_{|S\times S}\equiv 0$.\vskip3pt\pause

We let $W_{n,k}\subset \Gr(\cD_{n,k},n)$ be the subvariety
of the Grassmannian bundle consisting of the $\theta$-isotropic
$n$-subspaces, and
lift \hbox{$\cD_{n,k}{\subset}\,T_{Z_{n,k}}$\kern-15pt}\\
to $\cE_{n,k}\subset T_{W_{n,k}}$,
$\cS_{n,k}$ being the tautological isotropic \hbox{subbundle.\kern-15pt}

In complex dimension 2, it is known that there exist compact almost
complex manifolds that cannot be given a complex structure: by
Van de Ven (1966), for $X$ a complex surface,\vskip4pt
\centerline{\alert{$p=c_1^2(X)$, $q=c_2(X)$
is in the region $\{p\leq 8q,\,p+q\equiv 0(12)\}$,}}\vskip4pt
but the only restriction for $X$
almost complex is $p+q\equiv 0(12)$.\pause

The sphere $S^6$ can be realized as the set of octonions $x\in\bO$ such that
$x^2=-1$ (${}\Leftrightarrow \Re x=0$ and $|x|=1$).\pause\\
A natural non integrable almost complex structure is then given by\vskip3pt
\centerline{\alert{$J_xh=xh$,
$h\in T_{S^6,x}\Leftrightarrow \Re h=0~\hbox{and}~xh+hx=0$.}}\vskip3pt

\frametitle{Application to complex structures on $S^6$}
\vskip-4pt
The octonion embedding $f:S^6\hookrightarrow\bO=\bR^{2k}$, $k=4$ (which has
trivial rank 2 normal bundle), yields a
universal embedding $\varphi:S^6\to Z_{3,4}$ where
$\dim Z_{3,4}=46$, rank~$\cD_{3,4}=43$ (corank 3).\vskip4pt\pause

By passing to the Grassmannian bundle we get a map $\psi:S^6\to W_{3,4}$
where $\dim  W_{3,4}<46+3\times 40=166$, $W_{3,4}$ being equipped with
bundles $\cE_{3,4}\supset\cS_{3,4}$ of respective coranks $3$ and $43$, and
at the homotopy level the question is whether  $\overline\partial\psi
\subset\cE_{3,4}$ can be retracted to a section with values in $\cS_{3,4}$
over the whole $S^6$.\vskip4pt\pause

If the answer is negative, this would prove that there are no complex 
structures on $S^6$ (it is well known that $S^6$ admits only
two almost complex structures up to homotopy, $J_0$ given by the octonions
and its conjugate $-J_0$).\vskip4pt\pause

\alert{In general, this approach could yield topological obstructions
for an almost complex structure to be homotopic to a complex structure.}

Assume that holomorphic foliations can be approximated by \alert{Nash

Then every compact complex manifold can be approximated by compact 
complex manifolds that are embeddable in the sense of Bogomolov 
in foliated projective manifolds.
