We develop a theory of vector-valued heights and intersections defined relative to finitely generated extensions K/k. These generalize both number field and geometric heights. When k is Q or F_p, or when a non-isotriviality condition holds,…

At the end of the 70s, Gross and Deligne conjectured that periods of geometric Hodge structures with multiplication by an abelian number field are products of values of the gamma function at rational arguments, with exponents determined by…

We study limit cycles in piecewise complex systems with switching manifold $\mathbb{S}^1$. Using M\"obius transformations we establish an equivalence between circular and straight-line discontinuities that preserves periods, stability, and…

Above a Laurent polynomial f one makes grow a vector space of vanishing cycles (after the work of Sabbah, singularity setting), a graded Milnor ring (after the work of Kouchnirenko) and an orbifold cohomology ring (after the work of…

For a $d$-dimensional smooth projective variety $X$ over the function field of a smooth variety $B$ over a field $k$ and for $i\ge 0$, we define a subgroup $CH^i(X)^{(0)}$ of $CH^i(X)$ and construct a "refined height pairing"…

We propose a novel constructive framework for approaching the Hodge Conjecture via explicit degenerations. Building on limiting mixed Hodge structures (LMHS), we formulate a criterion under which a rational class of type (p, p) on a smooth…

We study the Hodge structure of elliptic surfaces which are canonically defined from bielliptic curves of genus three. We prove that the period map for the second cohomology has one dimensional fibers, and the period map for the total…

We prove that the cyclic homology of a saturated $A_\infty$ category admits the structure of a `polarized variation of Hodge structures', building heavily on the work of many authors: the main point of the paper is to present complete…

We show that there exists a sequence of genus three curves defined over the rationals in which the height of a canonical Gross-Schoen cycle tends to infinity.

The Gerstenhaber and Schack cohomology comparison theorem asserts that there is a cochain equivalence between the Hochschild complex of a certain algebra and the usual singular cochain complex of a space. We show that this comparison…

One of the themes in algebraic geometry is the study of the relation between the ``topology'' of a smooth projective variety and a (``general'') hyperplane section. Recent results of Nori produce cohomological evidence for a conjecture that…

Aperiodic tilings support two classically studied but hitherto separately presented structures: matching rules, which enforce global order via local constraints, and height functions, which encode global geometry through integer-valued…

The paper is concerned with Kropholler's conjecture on splitting a finitely generated group over a codimension-1 subgroup. For a subgroup H of a group G, we define the notion of "finite splitting height" which generalises the finite-height…

We prove Barth-type connectedness results for low-codimension smooth subvarieties with good numerical properties inside certain "easy" ambient spaces (such as homogeneous varieties, or spherical varieties). The argument employs some basics…

We compute relations of rational equivalence among special codimensional two cycles on families of abelian surfaces using elements of higher chow groups.

We investigate self-similar scalar field solutions to the Einstein equations in whole cylinder symmetry. Imposing self-similarity on the spacetime gives rise to a set of single variable functions describing the metric. Furthermore, it is…

We compare several different methods involving Hodge-theoretic spectra of singularities which produce constraints on the number and type of isolated singularities on projective hypersurfaces of fixed degree. In particular, we introduce a…

We compare the context of Hodge structures with that of vertex algebras of conformal field theory. Vertex algebras appear as the highest weight representations of infinite dimensional Lie algebras. A correspondence between Higgs bundles and…

We develop a framework that systematically casts the solvability and uniqueness conditions of linearized geometric boundary-value problems into cohomological terms. The theory is designed to be applicable without assumptions on the…

For a linear algebraic group G over the field of rational numbers, we consider the period domains D classifying G-mixed Hodge structures, and construct the extended period domains as toroidal partial compactifications. We give an…
