The Kodaira problem for Kähler spaces with vanishing first Chern class

Abstract: Let $X$ be a normal compact K\"ahler space with klt singularities and torsion canonical bundle. We show that $X$ admits arbitrarily small deformations that are projective varieties if its locally trivial deformation space is smooth. We then prove that this unobstructedness assumption holds in at least three cases: if $X$ has toroidal singularities, if $X$ has finite quotient singularities, and if the second cohomology group of its tangent sheaf vanishes.
