We define the notion of a loop Hodge structure -- an infinite dimensional generalization of a Hodge structure -- and prove that a suitable variation of this object over a complex manifold is equivalent to the datum of a harmonic bundle.…

Each finite dimensional irreducible rational representation V of the symplectic group Sp_{2g} determines a generically defined local system \V over the moduli space M_g of genus g smooth projective curves. We study H^2(M_g;\V) and the mixed…

We study holomorphic locally homogeneous geometric structures modelled on line bundles over the projective line. We classify these structures on primary Hopf surfaces. We write out the developing map and holonomy morphism of each of these…

Playing off against each other the real and complex structures, we elucidate the local structure of certain representation spaces in the world of Poisson geometry. Particular cases of these spaces arise as moduli spaces of semistable…

We define and construct mixed Hodge structures on real schematic homotopy types of complex projective varieties, giving mixed Hodge structures on their homotopy groups and pro-algebraic fundamental groups. We also show that these split on…

Let S be an orientable, finite type surface with negative Euler characteristic. The augmented moduli space of convex real projective structures on S was first defined and topologized by the first author. In this article, we give an explicit…

We study the limits of holonomy representations of complex projective structures on a compact Riemann surface in the Morgan-Shalen compactification of the character variety. We show that the dual R-trees of the quadratic differentials…

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 study complex analytic (possibly singular) projective connections on the plane. We characterize some of them in terms of their families of integral curves. We also give a beginning of classification of second order odes polynomial in the…

Finite projective (lattice) geometries defined over rings instead of fields have recently been recognized to be of great importance for quantum information theory. We believe that there is much more potential hidden in these geometries to…

In this paper we give a new and simplified proof of the variational Hodge conjecture for complete intersection cycles on a hypersurface in projective space.

We construct highly singular projective curves and surfaces defined by invariants of primitive complex reflection groups.

The purpose of this note is to give an account of a well-known folklore result: the Hodge structure on the second cohomology of a compact hyperk\"ahler manifold uniquely determines Hodge structures on all higher cohomology groups. We…

In this expository article, we outline the theory of harmonic differential forms and its consequences. We provide self-contained proofs of the following important results in differential geometry: (1) Hodge theorem, which states that for a…

A curve, that is, a connected, reduced, projective scheme of dimension 1 over an algebraically closed field, admits two types of compactifications of its (generalized) Jacobian: the moduli schemes of P-quasistable torsion-free, rank-1…

We obtain variational formulas for holomorphic objects on Riemann surfaces with respect to arbitrary local coordinates on the moduli space of complex structures. These formulas are written in terms of a canonical object on the moduli space…

This is a review article discussing the de Rham cohomology of period domains of Hodge structures. We explain it as the de Rham cohomology of differentiable stacks as of a moduli space. We also discuss the cohomology of the partial toroidal…

The primary goal of this paper is to find a homotopy theoretic approximation to moduli spaces of holomorphic maps Riemann surfaces into complex projective space. There is a similar treatment of a partial compactification of these moduli…

In this paper we define a Poisson structure on some moduli spaces related to principal G-bundles on elliptic curves, the simplest example being the moduli space of stable pairs: a vector bundle and its global section. We also study…

We introduce and analyze a new geometric structure on topological surfaces generalizing the complex structure. To define this so called higher complex structure we use the punctual Hilbert scheme of the plane. The moduli space of higher…
