TITLE: Can one bound the Todd class of a 3-dimensional variety polynomially in c_3
QUESTION [10 upvotes]: This question is on bounding the degree of the Todd class on a complex threefold.  
Let $X$ be a smooth compact connected complex surface. Let $c_i=c_i(TX)$ be its $i$-th Chern class. Recall the following two facts. These allow one to bound the degree of the Todd class on a surface in terms of $c_2$.
1. If $X$ is not of general type, we have that $c_1^2$ is bounded absolutely from above by 9. See Table 10 of Chapter VI of Compact complex surfaces by Barth, Hulek, Peters and van de Ven.
2. If $X$ is of general type, then the Bogomolov-Miyaoka-Yau inequality states that $$c_1^2 \leq 3c_2.$$ 
Now, I am   interested in similar results for 3-dimensional smooth projective connected   varieties over $\mathbb{C}$.
In this case,  the degree of the Todd class of $X$ is the degree of $$\frac{c_1 c_2}{24}.$$  

Question. For 3-dimensional smooth projective connected varieties over $\mathbb{C}$, do there exist any absolute upper bounds on $c_1c_2$ (or any bounds for that matter) which are polynomial in $c_3$?

REPLY [17 votes]: The case of complex manifolds of higher dimension is very different from the case of complex surfaces. So the answer to the question about complex $3$ folds is no, there exists a real 6-dimensional simply connected manfiold with integrable complex structures $J_m$ for all $m\in \mathbb Z^+$ such that $c_1c_2=48m$. This is a theorem A from the acticle of LeBrun. Though, the manifolds that he constructs are not algebraic

The question for algebraic manifolds was studied by Kotschick, you may be interested this the following two articles:

Finally, it should be added that a systematic attempt to construct various complex 3-fold is given in a very nice article of Okonek and Van de Ven "CUBIC FORMS AND COMPLEX 3-FOLDS" of Okonek, Ch. / Van de Ven, A, L'Enseignement Mathématique Volume / Année: 41 / 1995.
