Hodge numbers of a complement

Let $Y\subset X$ be an analytic subvariety of codimension $d$ of a smooth compact complex variety $X$. Denote $U = X\setminus Y$. The relative cohomology exact sequence implies that $$ H^i(X) \to H^i(...

Splitting of de Rham cohomology for singular spaces

I am currently trying to wrap my head around the following splitting result by Bloom & Herrera (here is a link to the ResearchGate publication) for the de Rham cohomology of (in particular) a ...

Hodge conjecture as the equality of arithmetic and algebraic weights of motivic L-functions

Recently I became aware of the following statement given on page 13 of this paper. First, let us recall the following definitions: Definition 4.1. Suppose $L(s)$ is an analytic $L$-function with ...

A specific question on the Griffiths' paper: the reduction of the pole order

If someone has gone through the Griffiths' paper ``On the periods of certain rational integrals: I,'' could you help me to understand Lemma 8.10? I don't get why $\eta\in Z^{q,k+1}(l-1)$; although $\...

Does the reduction of the pole order to compute the Poincare residue work?

I am trying to understand the Poincare residue and referring to On Computing Picard-Fuchs Equations, which is cited by Wikipedia's page on the Poincare residue. On pp. 5--6, he gives a way to compute ...

Top integer homology of compact analytic variety

Let $V$ be a compact connected complex analytic subvariety (possibly singular) of a complex smooth manifold. Let $n$ denote its complex dimension. Is it true that $H_{2n}(V,\mathbb{Z})\simeq \mathbb{Z}...

Cohomology of the base of an elliptic fibre space

Work over $\mathbb{C}$. Let $\Phi : X \to S$ be an elliptic fiber space, where $X$ is a smooth projective threefold with $H^1(\mathcal{O}_X)=H^2(\mathcal{O}_X)=0$, and $S$ is a smooth projective ...

Representatives of line bundle cohomology over tori

Let $V^n$ a be a $\mathbb{C}$-vector space. For $U\subset V$ a complete lattice, the holomorphic line bundles over $V/U$ are classified (see e.g. `Abelian varieties', D. Mumford) by data $(H,\alpha)$ ...

What is the geometric meaning of $H^2(X, \mathscr{O}_X)$?

Let $X$ be a compact complex manifold with structure sheaf $\mathscr{O}_X$ (the sheaf of holomorphic functions on $X$). What is the geometric meaning (if any) of $H^2(X, \mathscr{O}_X)$? In the ...

Does the stable homotopy type of a variety depend on an embedding into C?

Crossposting from math SE since my question might not be as well-known as I had assumed. Suppose I have an algebraically closed field $K$ of finite transcendence degree over $\mathbb{Q}$. To any ...

How do I remember which power of the Lefschetz operator $L$ corresponds to the $k$th Primitive cohomology group?

Let $X$ be a compact Kähler manifold with $L$ denoting the Lefschetz operator $L(\bullet) = \bullet \wedge \omega$. The primitive cohomology groups are defined, for $k \in \mathbb{N}$, by $$P^k(X, \...

Holomorphic covers pulling back the volume form to any integer multiple

Let $M$ be a closed connected complex manifold with $\mathrm{dim}\:M=n$. Can there exist holomorphic covering maps $\phi_k:M\to M$ for all integers $k\geq 1$ such that $\phi_k^*:H^n(M, \mathbb{Z})\to ...
