We consider holomorphic foliations by curves on compact complex manifolds, for which we investigate the existence of projective structures along the leaves varying holomorphically (foliated projective structures), that satisfy particular…

We show that the metrisability of an oriented projective surface is equivalent to the existence of pseudo-holomorphic curves. A projective structure $\mathfrak{p}$ and a volume form $\sigma$ on an oriented surface $M$ equip the total space…

Let $X$ a complex projective variety of complex dimension $n$ with only isolated singularities of simply connected links. We show that we can endow the rational cohomology of the family of the $\overline{p}$-perverse intersection spaces $\{…

Let $\textbf{H} = ((H, F^{\bullet}), L)$ be a polarized variation of Hodge structure on a smooth quasi-projective variety $U.$ By M. Saito's theory of mixed Hodge modules, the variation of Hodge structure $\textbf{H}$ can be viewed as a…

For any smooth projective variety with holomorphic locally homogeneous structure modelled on a homogeneous algebraic variety, we determine all the subvarieties of it which develop to the model.

Let X be a smooth projective complex variety, of dimension 3, whose Hodge numbers h^{3,0}(X), h^{1,0}(X) both vanish. Let f: X--> X be a birational map that induces an isomorphism on (dense) open subvarieties U,V of X. Then we show that the…

We study global sections of Hodge bundles arising from two complementary constructions: a deformation-theoretic construction, which yields global geometric consequences for period maps, and a construction from the matrix representation of…

Let $\overline{B}$ be a smooth projective varieity, and $Z \subset \overline{B}$ a simple normal crossing divisor. Assume that $B = \overline{B} - Z$ admits a variation of pure, polarized Hodge structure. The divisor $Z$ is naturally…

B. Totaro showed \cite{totaro} that the rational cohomology of configuration spaces of smooth complex projective varieties is isomorphic as an algebra to the $E_2$ term of the Leray spectral sequence corresponding to the open embedding of…

We study the branched holomorphic projective structures on a compact Riemann surface $X$ with a fixed branching divisor $S\, =\, \sum_{i=1}^d x_i$, where $x_i \,\in\, X$ are distinct points. After defining branched ${\rm SO}(3,{\mathbb…

Labourie and the author independently showed that a convex real projective structure on an oriented surface of genus at least 2 is equivalent to a conformal structure plus a holomorphic cubic differential U. We analyze the behavior of the…

We begin by introducing the concept of a Hodge structure and give some of its basic properties, including the Hodge and Lefschetz decompositions. We then define the period map, which relates families of Kahler manifolds to the families of…

We investigate the duality between local (complex analytic) projective structures on surfaces and two dimensional (complex analytic) neighborhoods of rational curves having self-intersection +1. We study the analytic classification,…

Let S be a smooth complex projective surface equipped with a Poisson structure s and also a polarization H. The moduli space M_H(S,P) of stable sheaves on S having a fixed Hilbert polynomial P of degree one has a natural Poisson structure…

Let X be a complex projective variety of dimension n with only isolated normal singularities. In this paper we prove, using mixed Hodge theory, that if the link of each singular point of X is (n-2)-connected, then X is a formal topological…

This text is an expository survey on the interplay between polarized variation of Hodge structure (PVHS) and the formalism of Hodge modules. We specifically review the extensions of a PVMHS over their singularities and its relation to mixed…

The paper is a generalization of a result of I. Dolgachev, M. Mendes Lopes, and R. Pardini. We prove that a smooth projective complex surface $X$, not necessarily minimal, contains $h^{1,1}(X)-1$ disjoint $(-2)$-curves if and only if $X$ is…

Using the idea of a generalized Kaehler structure, which is a pair of commuting generalized complex structures, we construct bihermitian metrics on the projective plane and the product of two projective lines, and show that any such…

Given a period map defined over a quasi-projective variety, we construct a completion with rich geometric and Hodge-theoretic meaning. This result may be regarded as an analog of Mumford's toroidal compactification for locally symmetric…

In this paper we prove the Hodge conjecture for products of the form $S_1 \times ... S_n$, where $S_i$ are smooth projective surfaces such that $p_g(S_i)=1, q(S_i)=2$. We also prove the Hodge conjecture for arbitrary self-products of a K3…
