We prove new results concerning the topology and Hodge theory of singular varieties. A common theme is that concrete conditions on the complexity of the singularities, from a number of different perspectives, are closely related to the…

We study the weighted spectrum and vanishing cohomology for several classes of isolated hypersurface singularities, and how they contribute to the limiting mixed Hodge structure of a smoothing. Applications are given to several types of…

We prove semipositivity of the curvature of the Narashimhan-Simha metric on an arbitrary flat projective family of varieties with only canonical singularities. This also implies that the direct image of pluricanonical systems have a natural…

We prove a theorem on how a conclusion on homological dimension of a family of coherent sheaves over a scheme can be done from homological dimension of the restriction of this family to the reduction of the base.

This is a survey of some recent developments in the study of singularities related to the classification theory of algebraic varieties. In particular, the definition and basic properties of Du Bois singularities and their connections to the…

Gerstenhaber and Schack ([GS]) developed a deformation theory of presheaves of algebras on small categories. We translate their cohomological description to sheaf cohomology. More precisely, we describe the deformation space of (admissible)…

We propose an analogue of Dubrovin's conjecture for the case where Fano manifolds have quantum connections of exponential type. It includes the case where the quantum cohomology rings are not necessarily semisimple. The conjecture is…

The aim of this work is to study the foliations on the complex projective plane with flat \textsc{Legendre} transform (dual web). We establish some effective criteria for the flatness of the dual $d$-web of a homogeneous foliation of degree…

We give several related versions of global Grothendieck Duality for unbounded complexes on noetherian formal schemes. The proofs, based on a non-trivial adaptation of Deligne's method for the special case of ordinary schemes, are reasonably…

For every $d \geq 4$, we construct a $d$-dimensional, log canonical, $K$-trivial variety with the property that two general fibers of its Albanese morphism are not birational. This provides a strong counterexample to the…

The dual complex of a singularity is defined, up-to homotopy, using resolutions of singularities. In many cases, for instance for isolated singularities, we identify and study a "minimal" representative of the homotopy class that is well…

We study the singularities of secant varieties of smooth projective varieties using methods from birational geometry when the embedding line bundle is sufficiently positive. More precisely, we study the Du Bois complex of secant varieties…

To a homology theory one can associate an additive site and a new homological functor with values in the category of additive sheaves on that site. If this category of sheaves can be shown to be equivalent to a category of comodules of a…

We prove that a 1-dimnl family of abelian varieties with an ample sheaf defining principal polarization can be canonically compactified (after a finite base change) to a projective family with an ample sheaf. We show that the central fiber…

We prove an injectivity theorem for the cohomology of the Du Bois complexes of varieties with isolated singularities. We use this to deduce vanishing statements for the cohomologies of higher Du Bois complexes of such varieties. Besides…

We consider a filtration on the cohomology of the structure sheaf indexed by (not necessarily reduced) divisors ``at infinity''. We show that the filtered pieces have transfers morphisms, fpqc descent, and are so called cube invariant. In…

This note aims to clarify the deep relationship between birational modifications of a variety and semiorthogonal decompositions of its derived category of coherent sheaves. The result is a conjecture on the existence and properties of…

Inspired by a previous work of Nakajima, we consider perverse sheaves over acyclic graded quiver varieties and study the Fourier-Sato-Deligne transform from a representation theoretic point of view. We obtain deformed monoidal…

The relative Gromov seminorm is a finer invariant than stable commutator length where a relative homology class is fixed. We show a duality result between bounded cohomology and the relative Gromov seminorm, analogously to Bavard duality…

This paper studies several notions of sheaves of differential forms that are better behaved on singular varieties than K\"ahler differentials. Our main focus lies on varieties that are defined over fields of positive characteristic. We…
