We study the geometry and cohomology of Lefschetz pencils for semistable schemes over a discrete valuation ring. We relate the global cohomological properties of the Lefschetz pencil and the monodromy-weight conjecture, in particular we…
A notion of duality of weight systems which corresponds to Batyrev's toric mirror symmetry is given. Explicit duality on the (1,1)-cohomology of K3 surfaces which are minimal models of toric hypersurfaces is constructed using monomial…
Motivated by definitions in mixed Hodge theory, we define the weight filtration and the monodromy weight filtration on the combinatorial intersection cohomology of a fan. These filtrations give a natural definition of the multivariable…
The aim of this article is to study degeneration of the variations of Hodge structure associated to a proper K\"ahler semistable morphism. We prove that the weight filtrations constructed in the author's previous paper coincide with the…
We prove that the weight 6, depth 3, multiple polylogarithm $ \mathrm{Li}_{4,1,1}((xyz)^{-1}, x, y) $, or rather its more natural `divergent' incarnation $ \mathrm{Li}_{3;1,1,1}(x,y,z) $, satisfies the 6-fold anharmonic symmetries of the…
We prove the weight part of Serre's conjecture in generic situations for forms of $U(3)$ which are compact at infinity and split at places dividing $p$ as conjectured by Herzig. We also prove automorphy lifting theorems in dimension three.…
A paper of the first author and Zilke proposed seven combinatorial problems around formulas for the characteristic polynomial and the exponents of an isolated quasihomogeneous singularity. The most important of them was a conjecture on the…
In this paper, we extract natural invariants of a singularity by using the Deligne weight filtration on the cohomology of an exceptional fibre of a resolution, and also on the intersection cohomology of the link. Our primary goal is to…
We study certain 'weights' for triangulated categories endowed with $t$-structures. Our results axiomatize and describe in detail the relations between the Chow weight structure (introduced in a preceding paper), the (conjectural) motivic…
We associate to each real algebraic variety a filtered chain complex, the weight complex, which is well-defined up to filtered quasi-isomorphism, and which induces on classical (compactly supported) homology with Z/2 coefficients an analog…
In the geometric situation of the simple Shimura varieties of Kottwitz studied in Harris and Taylor's book, we describe the monodromy filtration of the vanishing cycles complex and the spectral sequence associated to it. We prove in…
We show that in the category of complex algebraic varieties, the Eilenberg--Moore spectral sequence can be endowed with a weight filtration. This implies that it degenerates if all involved spaces have pure cohomology. As application, we…
Braverman and Finkelberg have recently proposed a conjectural analogue of the geometric Satake isomorphism for untwisted affine Kac-Moody groups. As part of their model, they conjecture that (at dominant weights) Lusztig's q-analog of…
If $\beta\in\CC^d$ is integral but not a strongly resonant parameter for the homogeneous matrix $A\in\ZZ^{d\times n}$ with $\ZZ A=\ZZ^d$, then the associated GKZ-system carries a naturally defined mixed Hodge module structure. We study here…
We study the vanishing cycles of a one-parameter smoothing of a complex analytic space and show that the weight filtration on its perverse cohomology sheaf of the highest degree is quite close to the monodromy filtration so that its graded…
The middle homology of the Milnor fiber of a quasihomogeneous polynomial with an isolated singularity is a ${\mathbb Z}$-lattice and comes equipped with an automorphism of finite order, the integral monodromy. Orlik (1972) made a precise…
Let X be a smooth, geometrically connected variety over a p-adic local field. We show that the pro-unipotent fundamental group of X (in both the etale and crystalline settings) satisfies the weight-monodromy conjecture, following…
Let ${\cal L}$ be a local system on the complement $X^{\star}$ of a normal crossing divisor (NCD) $ Y$ in a smooth analytic variety $X$ and let $ j: X^{\star} = X - Y \to X $ denotes the open embedding. The purpose of this paper is to…
In "Proof of the Arnold chord conjecture in three dimensions I", we deduced the Arnold chord conjecture in three dimensions from another result, which asserts that an exact symplectic cobordism between contact three-manifolds induces a map…
We prove a natural analogue of the Sato-Tate conjecture for modular forms of weight 2 or 3 whose associated automorphic representations are a twist of the Steinberg representation at some finite place.
