We introduce a new class of Hodge cycles with non-reduced associated Hodge loci, we call them fake linear cycles. We characterize them for all Fermat varieties and show that they exist only for degrees $d=3,4,6$, where there are infinitely…

We give a classification of components of the Hodge locus in any parameter space of smooth projective varieties. This is done using determinantal varieties constructed from the infinitesimal variation of Hodge structures (IVHS) of the…

In this article we use a theorem of Carlson and Griffiths and compute periods of linear algebraic cycles inside the Fermat variety of even dimension $n$ and degree $d$. As an application, for examples of $n$ and $d$ we prove that the locus…

Let $Y$ be a smooth complex projective variety of dimension $N+1$, $L$ an invertible sufficiently ample sheaf, $X\in |L|$ a smooth hypersurface and $\lambda\in F^kH^N(X,C)$ a vanishing cohomology class, where $F^{*}$ is the Hodge filtration…

We take a sum $C_1+r C_2,\ r\in\mathbb Q$ of a line $C_1$ and a complete intersection curve $C_2$ of type $(3,3)$ inside a smooth surface of degree $8$ and with $C_1\cap C_2=\emptyset$. We gather evidences to the fact that for all except a…

We study an algebraic cycle of the form $Z_0= r {\mathbb P}^{\frac{n}{2}}+\check r \check{\mathbb P}^{\frac{n}{2}}$, $r \in{\mathbb N},\check r \in{\mathbb Z},\ \ 1\leq r , |\check r |\leq 10,\ \ \gcd ( r ,\check r )=1$, inside the cubic…

For a fixed integer $d$, we study here the locus of degree $d$ hypersurfaces $X$ in $\mathbb{P}^{2n+1}$ such that $H^{2n}(X,\mathbb{Q}) \cap H^{n,n}(X,\mathbb{C}) \not= \mathbb{Q}$. We call this locus \textit{the Noether-Lefschetz locus}.…

For every even number $n$, and every $n$-dimensional smooth hypersurface of $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ of degree $d$, we compute the periods of all its $\frac{n}{2}$-dimensional complete intersection algebraic cycles. Furthermore, we determine the…

We show, for all $n\ge 2$ even and $d\ge 2+\frac{4}{n}$, that the moduli of smooth degree $d$ hypersurfaces of $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ contains infinitely many different Hodge loci whose Zariski tangent space has the same codimension as the…

For each $k \geq 5$ we give a counterexample to a conjecture of Movasati on the dimension of certain Hodge loci of cubic hypersurfaces in $\mathbf{P}^{2k+1}$ containing two $k$-planes intersecting in dimension $k-3$. We give similar…

We extend non-emtpyness and irreducibility of Hassett divisors to the moduli spaces of $M$-polarizable cubic fourfolds for higher rank lattices $M$, which in turn provides a systematic approach for describing the irreducible components of…

Let $X\subset \mathbb{P}^{2k+1}$ be a smooth hypersurface containing two k-dimensional linear spaces $\Pi_1,\Pi_2$ intersecting in codimension one. In this paper we study the question whether the Hodge loci $NL([\Pi_1]+\lambda[\Pi_2])$ and…

The variety of all smooth hypersurfaces of given degree and dimension has the Fermat hypersurface as a natural base point. In order to study the period map for such varieties, we first determine the integral polarized Hodge structure of the…

The Fermat type Calabi-Yau $n$-fold, denoted by $\mathscr{F}_n$, is the hypersurface of $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ defined by $\sum_{i=0}^{n+1}x_i^{n+2}=0$, which is the smooth fiber over the Fermat point $\psi=0$ of the Fermat pencil $$…

This paper contains two results on Hodge loci in the moduli space of curves. The first concerns fibrations over curves with a non-trivial flat part in the Fujita decomposition. If local Torelli theorem holds for the fibres and the fibration…

We establish the Hodge conjecture for some subvarieties of a class of toric varieties. First we study quasi-smooth intersections in a projective simplicial toric variety, which is a suitable notion to generalize smooth complete intersection…

Let $k$ be a perfect field and let $X\subset {\mathbb P}^N$ be a hypersurface of degree $d$ defined over $k$ and containing a linear subspace $L$ defined over an algebraic closure $\overline{k}$ with $\mathrm{codim}_{{\mathbb P}^N}L=r$. We…

We prove that, under mild restrictions, the space of codimension-one foliations of degree one on a smooth projective complete intersection has two irreducible components of logarithmic type. We also prove that the same conclusion holds for…

In this paper we will study the Hessian hypersurface associated with a smooth cubic. We prove that the existence of a Hessian locus, associated with a smooth cubic form f, of dimension bigger then the expected one, forces the cubic f to be…
