Finiteness conjecture for diffeomorphism types of real forms

About 22 years old · traced to

Let M(C)M(\mathbb C) be a smooth projective manifold. A real form of M(C)M(\mathbb C) is a real algebraic manifold whose complexification is M(C)M(\mathbb C). Finiteness conjecture. The set of diffeomorphism types of real forms of M(C)M(\mathbb C) is finite. This is presented as one of several conjectures about real forms; the source gives no precise definition of “simple” and no resolution of this finiteness question.
