According to a well-known theorem of Brieskorn and Slodowy, the intersection of the nilpotent cone of a simple Lie algebra with a transverse slice to the subregular nilpotent orbit is a simple surface singularity. At the opposite extremity…

An isolated hypersurface singularity comes equipped with many different pairings on different spaces, the intersection form and the Seifert form on the Milnor lattice, a polarizing form for a mixed Hodge structure on a dual space, and a…

We show that, for each $n>0$, there is a family of elliptic surfaces which are covered by the square of a curve of genus $2n+1$, and whose Hodge structures have an action by ${\mathbb Q}(\sqrt{-n})$. By considering the case $n=3$, we show…

Geometric variations of local systems are families of variations of Hodge structure; they typically correspond to fibrations of K\"{a}hler manifolds for which each fibre itself is fibred by codimension one K\"{a}hler manifolds. In this…

Work of Green, Griffiths, Laza, and Robles suggests that the moduli space of (smoothable) stable surfaces should admit a natural stratification defined via Hodge theoretic data. In the case of stable surfaces with $K_X^2 = 1$ and $\chi(X) =…

Friedman and Morgan made the "speculation" that deformation equivalence and diffeomorphism should coincide for algebraic surfaces. Counterexamples, for the hitherto open case of surfaces of general type, have been given in the last years by…

We study the geometry and Hodge theory of the cubic hypersurfaces attached to two-loop Feynman integrals for generic physical parameters. We show that the Hodge structure attached to planar two-loop Feynman graphs decomposes into mixed Tate…

A finite subgroup of the conformal group SL(2,C) can be related to invariant polynomials on a hypersurface in C^3. The latter then carries a simple singularity, which resolves by a finite iteration of basic cycles of deprojections. The…

We study algebraic structures of certain submonoids of the monoid of homology cylinders over a surface and the homology cobordism groups, using Reidemeister torsion with non-commutative coefficients. The submonoids consist of ones whose…

F-theory/heterotic duality is formulated in the stable degeneration limit of a K3 fibration on the F-theory side. In this note, we analyze the structure of the stable degeneration limit. We discuss whether stable degeneration exists for…

We consider the topology for a class of hypersurfaces with highly nonisolated singularites which arise as exceptional orbit varieties of a special class of prehomogeneous vector spaces, which are representations of linear algebraic groups…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of polarization form in the variation of mixed Hodge structure associated to isolated hypersurface singularities. The contribution characterizes a modification of Grothendieck residue as the polarization on…

We study the orthospectrum and the simple orthospectrum of compact hyperbolic surfaces with geodesic boundary. We show that there are finitely many hyperbolic surfaces sharing the same simple orthospectrum and finitely many hyperbolic…

We consider elliptic surfaces $\mathcal{E}$ over a field $k$ equipped with zero section $O$ and another section $P$ of infinite order. If $k$ has characteristic zero, we show there are only finitely many points where $O$ is tangent to a…

This paper deals with cyclic covers of a large family of rational normal surfaces that can also be described as quotients of a product, where the factors are cyclic covers of algebraic curves. We use a generalization of Esnault-Viehweg…

In this article we use the combinatorial and geometric structure of manifolds with embedded cylinders in order to develop an adiabatic decomposition of the Hodge cohomology of these manifolds. We will on the one hand describe the adiabatic…

The set of volumes of stable surfaces does have accumulation points. In this paper, we study this phenomenon for surfaces with one cyclic quotient singularity, towards answering the question under which conditions we can still have…

Given a polynomial map $f:\Bbb C^{n+1}\to\Bbb C$, one can attach to it a geometrical variation of mixed Hodge structures (MHS) which gives rise to a limit MHS. The equivariant Hodge numbers of this MHS are analytical invariants of the…

We study a generalization of Hodge structures which first appeared in the work of Cecotti and Vafa. It consists of twistors, that is, holomorphic vector bundles on P^1, with additional structure, a flat connection on C^*, a real subbundle…

This paper explores the relationship between L-equivalence and D-equivalence for K3 surfaces and hyperk\"ahler manifolds. Building on Efimov's approach using Hodge theory, we prove that very general L-equivalent K3 surfaces are…
