Some known results in the projective case are extended to the Kahler case:
structure of the Green-Lazarsfeld set Sigma(1)(X); nilpotency of certain so
lvable quotients of pi(1) (X), structure of pi(1) (F) for F a generic fiber
of the algebraic reduction of X, when. X is compact Kahler. (C) 1999 Acade
