A Bochner principle and its applications to Fujiki class mathcal C manifolds with vanishing first Chern class

We prove a Bochner type vanishing theorem for compact complex manifolds $Y$ in Fujiki class $\mathcal C$, with vanishing first Chern class, that admit a cohomology class $[\alpha] \in H^{1,1}(Y,\mathbb R)$ which is numerically effective (nef) and has positive self-intersection (meaning $\int_Y \alpha^n \,>\, 0$, where $n\,=\,\dim_{\mathbb C} Y$). Using it, we prove that all holomorphic geometric structures of affine type on such a manifold $Y$ are locally homogeneous on a non-empty Zariski open subset. Consequently, if the geometric structure is rigid in the sense of Gromov, then the fundamental group of $Y$ must be infinite. In the particular case where the geometric structure is a holomorphic Riemannian metric, we show that the manifold $Y$ admits a finite unramified cover by a complex torus with the property that the pulled back holomorphic Riemannian metric on the torus is translation invariant.
