We consider the limiting behaviour of the archimedean height pairing for homologically trivial algebraic cycles in a degenerating one-parameter family of smooth projective complex varieties. We conjecture that the limit is controlled by the…

We introduce a pairing on local intersection cohomology groups of variations of pure Hodge structure, which we call the asymptotic height pairing. Our original application of this pairing was to answer a question on the Ceresa cycle posed…

The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we study the asymptotics of the N\'eron height pairing between degree-zero divisors on a family of degenerating compact Riemann surfaces parametrized by an algebraic curve. We show that if the…

We discuss the asymptotics of the Archimedean part of the Arakelov intersection number. The theorem is motivated by recent conjectures and their proof strategy by Gao and Zhang on the Northcott property of the Beilinson--Bloch height…

Given a smooth foliation on a closed manifold, basic forms are differential forms that can be expressed locally in terms of the transverse variables. The space of basic forms yields a differential complex, because the exterior derivative…

This is the first article in a series of two papers in which we study the Temperleyan dimer model on an arbitrary bounded Riemann surface of finite topolgical type. The end goal of both papers is to prove the convergence of height…

We establish a framework for fiberwise symmetrization to find a lower bound of a Dirichlet-type energy functional in a variational problem on a fibred Riemannian manifold, and use it to prove a comparison theorem of the first eigenvalue of…

We will announce two theorems. The first theorem will classify all topological types of degenerate fibers appearing in one-parameter families of Riemann surfaces, in terms of ``pseudoperiodic'' surface homeomorphisms. The second theorem…

We exhibit the analogy between prime geodesics on hyperbolic Riemann surfaces and ordinary primes. We present new asymptotic counting results concerning pairs of prime geodesics whose homology difference is fixed.

We construct a canonical sesquilinear pairing on the relative crystalline cohomology of a smooth proper family of varieties over a complete discretely valued $p$-adic field. Motivated by the role of Saito's higher residue pairing in the…

Log-Riemann surfaces of finite type are Riemann surfaces with finitely generated fundamental group equipped with a local diffeomorphism to C such that the surface has finitely many infinite order ramification points. We define and prove…

Motivated by a problem in local differential geometry of Cauchy--Riemann (CR) structures of hypersurface type, we find a canonical form for pairs consisting of a nondegenerate Hermitian form and a self-adjoint antilinear operator, or,…

For a one-parameter degeneration of compact Riemann surfaces endowed with the K\"ahler metric induced from the K\"ahler metric on the total space of the family, we determine the exact magnitude of the small eigenvalues of the Laplacian as a…

In this short note we want to give a definition of a generalized Deligne pairing for modules over an Azumaya algebra on an arithmetic surface $X$. We do this by defining Hermitian metrics on the Azumaya algebra and on the modules in…

We consider a closed odd-dimensional oriented manifold $M$ together with an acyclic flat hermitean vector bundle $\cF$. We form the trivial fibre bundle with fibre $M$ over the manifold of all Riemannian metrics on $M$. It has a natural…

Around 2008 N. Kawazumi and S. Zhang introduced a new fundamental numerical invariant for compact Riemann surfaces. One way of viewing the Kawazumi-Zhang invariant is as a quotient of two natural hermitian metrics with the same first Chern…

We consider dimer models on graphs which are bipartite, periodic and satisfy a geometric condition called {\em isoradiality}, defined in \cite{Kenyon3}. We show that the scaling limit of the height function of any such dimer model is…

In this note we discuss the geometry of Riemannian surfaces having a discrete set of singular points. We assume the conformal structure extends through the singularities and the curvature is integrable. Such points are called \emph{simple…

For a smooth, projective complex variety, we introduce several mixed Hodge structures associated to higher algebraic cycles. Most notably, we introduce a mixed Hodge structure for a pair of higher cycles which are in the refined normalized…

The degeneration of the Quillen metric for a one-parameter family of Riemann surfaces has been studied by Bismut-Bost and Yoshikawa. In this article we propose a more geometric point of view using Deligne's Riemann-Roch theorem. We obtain…
