Let $Y=Γ\backslash H^n$ be a quotient of the hyperbolic space by the action of a discrete convex-cocompact group of isometries. We describe certain spaces of $Γ$-invariant currents on the sphere at infinity of $H^n$ with support on the limit set of $Γ$. These spaces are finite-dimensional. The main result identifies the cohomology of $Y$ with a quotient of such spaces. We explain in which sense this result generalizes the classical Hodge theorem for compact quotients. We obtain analogous results for the cohomology groups $H^p(Γ,F)$, where $F$ is a finite-dimensional representation of the full group of orientation preserving isometries of $H^n$.
We show that for a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold the size of the first eigenvalue of the Hodge Laplacian acting on coexact 1-forms is comparable to an isoperimetric ratio relating geodesic length and stable commutator length with comparison constants that depend polynomially on the volume and on a lower bound on injectivity radius, refining estimates of Lipnowski and Stern. We use this estimate to show that there exist sequences of closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds with injectivity radius bounded below and volume going to infinity for which the 1-form Laplacian has spectral gap vanishing exponentia…
We compute the de Rham cohomology of the weak stable foliation of the geodesic flow of a connected orientable closed hyperbolic surface with various coefficients. For most of the coefficients, we also give certain "Hodge decompositions" of the corresponding de Rham complexes, which are not obtained by the usual Hodge theory of foliations. These results are based on unitary representation theory of $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{R})$. As an application we obtain an answer to a problem considered by Haefliger and Li around 1980.
Let $E$ be a holomorphic vector bundle over a compact Kähler manifold $(X,ω)$ with negative sectional curvature $sec\leq -K<0$, $Δ_{E}$ be the Chern connection on $E$. In this article we show that if $C:=|[Λ,iΘ(E)]|\leq c_{n}K$, then $(X,E)$ satisfy a family of Chern number inequalities. The main idea in our proof is study the $L^{2}$ $\bar{\partial}_{\tilde{E}}$-harmonic forms on lifting bundle $\tilde{E}$ over the universal covering space $\tilde{X}$. We also observe that there is a closely relationship between the eigenvalue of the Laplace-Beltrami operator $Δ_{\bar{\partial}_{\tilde{E}}}$ …
A compact complex manifold is Kobayashi non-hyperbolic if there exists an entire curve on it. Using mirror symmetry we establish that there are (possibly singular) elliptic or rational curves on any Calabi-Yau manifold $X$, whose mirror dual $\check X$ exists and is not "Hodge degenerate", therefore proving that $X$ is Kobayashi non-hyperbolic. We are not aware of any higher dimensional simply connected Calabi-Yau manifolds that satisfy the "Hodge degenerate" condition.
This article constructs Von Neumann invariants for constructible complexes and coherent D-modules on compact complex manifolds, generalizing the work of the author on coherent L 2-cohomology. We formulate a conjectural generalization of Dingoyan's L 2-Mixed Hodge structures in terms of Saito's Mixed Hodge Modules and give partial results in this direction. 2020 AMS Classification: 32J27.
We (1) characterize the Schubert varieties that arise as variations of Hodge structure (VHS); (2) show that the isotropy orbits of the infinitesimal Schubert VHS `span' the space of all infinitesimal VHS; and (3) show that the cohomology classes dual the Schubert VHS form a basis of the invariant characteristic cohomology associated to the infinitesimal period relation (a.k.a. Griffiths transversality).
We give a lower bound for the bottom of the $L^2$ differential form spectrum on hyperbolic manifolds, generalizing thus a well-known result due to Sullivan and Corlette in the function case. Our method is based on the study of the resolvent associated with the Hodge-de Rham Laplacian and leads to applications for the (co)homology and topology of certain classes of hyperbolic manifolds.
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. Hence one can study harmonic bundles using classical tools of Hodge theory, especially the existence of a period map (with values in an infinite dimensional period domain). Among other applications, we prove an integrality result for the Hitchin energy class of a harmonic bundle.
A geometric interpretation is given for certain elliptic-hyperbolic systems in the plane. Among several examples, one which reduces in the elliptic region to the equations for harmonic 1-forms on the projective disc is studied in detail. A boundary-value problem for this example is formulated and is shown to possess weak solutions.
Let $M$ be a $2m$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold. We show that the spectrum of the Hodge Laplacian acting on $m$-forms does not determine whether the manifold has boundary, nor does it determine the lengths of the closed geodesics. Among the many examples are a projective space and a hemisphere that have the same Hodge spectrum on 1-forms, and hyperbolic surfaces, mutually isospectral on 1-forms, with different injectivity radii. The Hodge $m$-spectrum also does not distinguish orbifolds from manifolds.
We construct Hodge filtered function spaces associated to infinite loop spaces. For Brown-Peterson cohomology, we show that the corresponding Hodge filtered spaces satisfy an analog of Wilson's unstable splitting. As a consequence, we obtain an analog of Quillen's theorem for Hodge filtered Brown-Peterson cohomology for complex manifolds.
In this paper, we prove an equality which involves Reidemeister torsion, complex volume, and Zograf infinite product for hyperbolic 3-manifolds with cusps.
Let $M$ be a compact hyperkahler manifold with maximal holonomy (IHS). The group $H^2(M, R)$ is equipped with a quadratic form of signature $(3, b_2-3)$, called Bogomolov-Beauville-Fujiki (BBF) form. This form restricted to the rational Hodge lattice $H^{1,1}(M,Q)$, has signature $(1,k)$. This gives a hyperbolic Riemannian metric on the projectivisation of the positive cone in $H^{1,1}(M,Q)$, denoted by $H$. Torelli theorem implies that the Hodge monodromy group $Γ$ acts on $H$ with finite covolume, giving a hyperbolic orbifold $X=H/Γ$. We show that there are finitely many geodesic hypersurfac…
We show that any infinite-type surface without planar ends admits arbitrarily large families of length isospectral hyperbolic structures. If the surface has infinite genus and its space of ends is self-similar, we construct an uncountable family of isospectral and quasiconformally distinct hyperbolic structures.
We introduce a canonical isomorphism from the space of pure-type complex differential forms on a compact complex manifold to the one on its infinitesimal deformations. By use of this map, we generalize an extension formula in a recent work of K. Liu, X. Yang and the second author. As a direct corollary of the extension formulas, we prove several deformation invariance theorems for Hodge numbers on some certain classes of complex manifolds, without use of Frölicher inequality or the topological invariance of Betti numbers.
The topological type of a non-compact Riemann surface is determined by its ends space and the ends having infinite genus. In this paper for a non-compact Riemann Surface $S_{m,s}$ with $s$ ends and exactly $m$ of them with infinite genus, such that $m,s\in \mathbb{N}$ and $1<m\leq s$, we give a precise description of the infinite set of generators of a Fuchsian (geometric Schottky) group $Γ_{m,s}$ such that the quotient space $\mathbb{H}/ Γ_{m, s}$ is homeomorphic to $S_{m,s}$ and has infinite area. For this construction, we exhibit a hyperbolic polygon with an infinite number of sides and giv…
We show that the number of twisted conjugacy classes is infinite for any automorphism of non-elementary, Gromov hyperbolic group . An analog of Selberg theory for twisted conjugacy classes is proposed.
For bicovariant differential calculi on quantum matrix groups a generalisation of classical notions such as metric tensor, Hodge operator, codifferential and Laplace-Beltrami operator for arbitrary k-forms is given. Under some technical assumptions it is proved that Woronowicz' external algebra of left-invariant differential forms either contains a unique form of maximal degree or it is infinite dimensional. Using Jucys-Murphy elements of the Hecke algebra the eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator for the Hopf algebra O(SLq(N)) are computed.
We give results on the following questions about a topologically tame hyperbolic 3-manifold M : 1. Does M have nonzero square-integrable harmonic 1-forms? 2. Does zero lie in the spectrum of the Laplacian acting on (1-forms on M)/Ker(d)?
We construct real polarizable Hodge structures on the reduced leafwise cohomology of Kähler-Riemann foliations by complex manifolds. As in the classical case one obtains a hard Lefschetz theorem for this cohomology. Serre's Kählerian analogue of the Weil conjectures carries over as well. Generalizing a construction of Looijenga and Lunts one obtains possibly infinite dimensional Lie algebras attached to Kähler-Riemann foliations. Finally using $(\mathfrak{g},K)$-cohomology we discuss a class of examples obtained by dividing a product of symmetric spaces by a cocompact lattice and considering t…
Following the lines of the celebrated Riemannian result of Gromoll and Meyer, we use infinite dimensional equivariant Morse theory to establish the existence of infinitely many geometrically distinct closed geodesics in a class of globally hyperbolic stationary Lorentzian manifolds.

We show in this article that Kähler hyperbolic manifolds satisfy a family of optimal Chern number inequalities and the equality cases can be attained by some compact ball quotients. These present restrictions to complex structures on negatively-curved compact Kähler manifolds, thus providing evidence to the rigidity conjecture of S.-T. Yau. The main ingredients in our proof are Gromov's results on the $L^2$-Hodge numbers, the $-1$-phenomenon of the $χ_y$-genus and Hirzebruch's proportionality principle. Similar methods can be applied to obtain parallel results on Kähler non-elliptic manifolds.…
