In this article we describe three constructions of complex variations of Hodge structure, proving the existence of interesting opposite filtrations that generalize a construction of Deligne. We also analyze the relation between deformations of Frobenius modules and certain maximally degenerate variations of Hodge structures. Finally, under a certain generation hypothesis, we show how to construct a Frobenius manifold starting from a deformation of a Frobenius module.
For an algebraic vector bundle $E$ over a smooth algebraic variety $X$, a monodromic $D$-module on $E$ is decomposed into a direct sum of some $O$-modules on $X$. We show that the Hodge filtration of a monodromic mixed Hodge module is decomposed with respect to the decomposition of the underlying $D$-module. By using this result, we endow the Fourier-Laplace transform $M^{\wedge}$ of the underlying $D$-module $M$ of a monodromic mixed Hodge module with a mixed Hodge module structure. Moreover, we describe the irregular Hodge filtration on $M^{\wedge}$ concretely and show that it coincides with…
In this paper we study F-crystals with self-dual structure over base schemes of characteristic p. We generalize Katz's Newton-Hodge Filtration Theorem to F-crystals with self-dual structure.
We give a definition and study the basic properties of the irregular Hodge filtration on the exponentially twisted de Rham cohomology of a smooth quasi-projective complex variety.
We give three new proofs of a theorem of C. Sabbah asserting that the weight filtration of the limit mixed Hodge structure at infinity of cohomologically tame polynomials coincides with the monodromy filtration up to a certain shift depending on the unipotent or non-unipotent monodromy part.
We determine the irregular Hodge filtration, as introduced by Sabbah, for the purely irregular hypergeometric $\mathcal{D}$-modules. We obtain in particular a formula for the irregular Hodge numbers of these systems. We use the reduction of hypergeometric systems from GKZ-systems as well as comparison results to Gauss-Manin systems of Laurent polynomials via Fourier-Laplace and Radon transformations.
We bound the generation level of the Hodge filtration on the localization along a hypersurface in terms of its minimal exponent. As a consequence, we obtain a local vanishing theorem for sheaves of forms with log poles. These results are extended to Q-divisors, and are derived from a result of independent interest on the generation level of the Hodge filtration on nearby and vanishing cycles.
We give an explicit formula for the Hodge filtration on the $\mathscr{D}_X$-module $O_X(*Z)f^{1-α}$ associated to the effective $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor $D=α\cdot Z$, where $0<α\le1$ and $Z=(f=0)$ is an irreducible hypersurface defined by $f$, a weighted homogeneous polynomial with an isolated singularity at the origin. In particular this gives a formula for the Hodge ideals of $D$. We deduce a formula for the generating level of the Hodge filtration, as well as further properties of Hodge ideals in this setting. We also extend the main theorem to the case when $f$ is a germ of holomorphic functio…
The notions Hodge-Newton decomposition and Hodge-Newton filtration for F-crystals are due to Katz and generalize Messing's result on the existence of the local-étale filtration for p-divisible groups. Recently, some of Katz's classical results have been generalized by Kottwitz to the context of F-crystals with additional structures and by Moonen to $μ$-ordinary p-divisible groups. In this paper, we discuss further generalizations to the situation of crystals in characteristic p and of p-divisible groups with additional structure by endomorphisms.
We exhibit a direct correspondence between the potential defining the H^{1,1} small quantum module structure on the cohomology of a Calabi-Yau manifold and the asymptotic data of the A-model variation of Hodge structure. This is done in the abstract context of polarized variations of Hodge structure and Frobenius modules.
We explicitly compute the Hodge ideals of Q-divisors in terms of the V-filtration induced by a local defining equation, inspired by a result of Saito in the reduced case. We deduce basic properties of Hodge ideals in this generality, and relate them to Bernstein-Sato polynomials. As a consequence of our study we establish general properties of the minimal exponent, a refined version of the log canonical threshold, and bound it in terms of discrepancies on log resolutions, addressing a question of Lichtin and Kollár.
Let X be a smooth projective curve over an algebraic closed field of characteristic p and F be the Frobenius morphism of X. Here, I give a negative answer to the guess that the length of the Harder-Narasimhan of F*W is not bigger than p, where W is a semistable bundle on X.
We show that the Hodge ideals in the sense of Mustata and Popa are quite closely related to the induced microlocal V-filtration on the structure sheaf, defined by using the microlocalization of the V-filtration of Kashiwara and Malgrange. More precisely the former coincide, module the ideal of the divisor, with the part of the latter indexed by positive integers, although they are different without modulo the ideal in general. This coincidence implies that the $j$-log-canonicity in their sense is determined by the microlocal log-canonical threshold of the divisor, which coincides with the maxi…
We show that the Hodge filtration of a tempered Hodge module is generated by the lowest piece of its Hodge filtration. As a consequence, we prove the main conjecture of [SV] in the special case of tempered representations of real reductive Lie groups.
For a regular function f on a smooth complex quasi-projective variety, J.-D. Yu introduced in arXiv:1203.2338 a filtration (the irregular Hodge filtration) on the de Rham complex with twisted differential d+df, extending a definition of Deligne in the case of curves. In this article, we show the degeneration at E_1 of the spectral sequence attached to the irregular Hodge filtration, by using the method of arXiv:0804.4328. We also make explicit the relation with a complex introduced by M. Kontsevich and give details on its proof of the corresponding E_1 degeneration, by reduction to characteris…
We prove that a variation of graded-polarizable mixed Hodge structure over a punctured disk with unipotent monodromy, has a limiting mixed Hodge structure at the puncture (i.e., it is admissible in the sense of [SZ]) which splits over $\R$, if and only if certain grading of the complexified weight filtration, depending smoothly on the Hodge filtration, extends across the puncture. In particular, the result exactly supplements Schmid's Theorem for pure structures, which holds for the graded variation, and gives a Hodge-theoretic condition for the relative monodromy weight filtration to exist.
Given an n-dimensional variety Z with rational singularities, we conjecture that for a resolution of singularities whose reduced exceptional divisor E has simple normal crossings, the (n-1)-th higher direct image of the sheaf of differential forms with log poles along E vanishes. We prove this when Z has isolated singularities and when it is a toric variety. We deduce that for a divisor D with isolated rational singularities on a smooth complex n-dimensional variety X, the generation level of Saito's Hodge filtration on the localization of the structure sheaf along D is at most n-3.
For a smooth complex projective variety X defined over a number field, we have filtrations on the Chow groups depending of the choice of realizations. If the realization consists of mixed Hodge structure without any additional structure, we can show that the obtained filtration coincides with the filtration of Green and Griffiths, assuming the Hodge conjecture. In the case the realizations contain Hodge structure and etale cohomology, we prove that if the second graded piece of the filtration does not vanish, it contains a nonzero element which is represented by a cycle defined over a field of…
We consider mixed Hodge module structures on GKZ-hypergeometric differential systems. We show that the Hodge filtration on these D-modules is given by the order filtration, up to suitable shift. As an application, we prove a conjecture on the existence of non-commutative Hodge structures on the reduced quantum D-module of a nef complete intersection inside a toric variety.
The goal of the current text is to study non-archimedean analytic derived de Rham cohomology by means of formal completions. Our approach is inspired by the deformation to the normal cone provided in \cite{Gaitsgory_Study_II}. More specifically, given a morphism $f \colon X \to Y$ of (derived) $k$-analytic spaces we construct the \emph{non-archimedean deformation to the normal cone} associated to $f$. The latter can be thought as an $\mathbf A^1_k$-parametrized deformation whose fiber at $1 \in \mathbf A^1_k$ coincides with the formal completion of $f$ and the fiber at $0 \in \mathbf A^1_k$ wi…
We construct a locally geometric $\infty$-stack $M_{Hod}(X,Perf)$ of perfect complexes with $λ$-connection structure on a smooth projective variety $X$. This maps to $A ^1 / G_m$, so it can be considered as the Hodge filtration of its fiber over 1 which is $M_{DR}(X,Perf)$, parametrizing complexes of $D_X$-modules which are $O_X$-perfect. We apply the result of Toen-Vaquie that $Perf(X)$ is locally geometric. The proof of geometricity of the map $M_{Hod}(X,Perf) \to Perf(X)$ uses a Hochschild-like notion of weak complexes of modules over a sheaf of rings of differential operators. We prove a s…
This is a report on joint work with T. Hausel and L. Migliorini, where we prove, for each of the groups GL(2,C), PGL(2,C), SL(2,C), that the non-Abelian Hodge theorem identifies the weight filtration on the cohomology of the character variety with the perverse Leray filtration on the cohomology of the domain of the Hitchin map. We review the decomposition theorem, Nĝo's support theorem, the geometric description of the perverse filtration and the sub-additivity of the Leray filtration with respect to the cup product.
The Hodge filtration of the module of derivations on the orbit space of a finite real reflection group acting on an $\ell$-dimensional Euclidean space was introduced and studied by K. Saito. The filtration is equivalent data to the flat structure or the Frobenius manifold structure. We will show that the Hodge filtration coincides with the filtration by the order of contacts to the reflecting hyperplanes. Moreover, a standard basis for the Hodge filtration is explicitly given.
We introduce a category of possibly irregular holonomic D-modules which can be endowed in a canonical way with an irregular Hodge filtration. Mixed Hodge modules with their Hodge filtration naturally belong to this category, as well as their twist by $\expφ$ for any meromorphic function $φ$. This category is stable by various standard functors, which produce many more filtered objects. The irregular Hodge filtration satisfies the $E_1$-degeneration property by a projective morphism. This generalizes some results proved by Esnault-Sabbah-Yu arxiv:1302.4537 and Sabbah-Yu arxiv:1406.1339. We also…
Given a mixed Hodge module and a meromorphic function f on a complex manifold, we associate to these data a filtration (the irregular Hodge filtration) on the exponentially twisted holonomic module, which extends the construction of arXiv:1302.4537. We show the strictness of the push-forward filtered D-module through any projective morphism, by using the theory of mixed twistor D-modules of T. Mochizuki. We consider the example of the rescaling of a regular function f, which leads to an expression of the irregular Hodge filtration of the Laplace transform of the Gauss-Manin systems of f in ter…
We compute the Hodge filtration on cohomology groups of complements of complex coordinate subspace arrangements. By means of this result we construct integral representations of holomorphic functions such that kernels of these representations have singularities on complex coordinate subspace arrangements.
In this article we are interested in morphisms without slope for mixed Hodge modules. We first show the commutativity of iterated nearby cycles and vanishing cycles applied to a mixed Hodge module in the case of a morphism without slope. Then we define the notion "strictly without slope" for a mixed Hodge module and we show the preservation of this condition under the direct image by a proper morphism. As an application we prove the compatibility of the Hodge filtration and Kashiwara-Malgrange filtrations for some pure Hodge modules with support an hypersurface with quasi-ordinary singularitie…
A p-divisible group, or more generally an F-crystal, is said to be Hodge-Newton reducible if its Hodge polygon passes through a break point of its Newton polygon. Katz proved that Hodge-Newton reducible F-crystals admit a canonical filtration called the Hodge-Newton filtration. The notion of Hodge-Newton reducibility plays an important role in the deformation theory of p-divisible groups; the key property is that the Hodge-Newton filtration of a p-divisible group over a field of characteristic p can be uniquely lifted to a filtration of its deformation. We generalize Katz's result to F-crystal…
We prove that there is a natural plectic weight filtration on the cohomology of Hilbert modular varieties in the spirit of Nekovar and Scholl. This is achieved with the help of Morel's work on weight t-structures and a detailed study of partial Frobenius. We prove in particular that the partial Frobenius extends to toroidal and minimal compactifications.
Using morphic cohomology, we produce a sequence of conjectures, called morphic conjectures, which terminates at the Grothendieck standard conjecture A. A refinement of Hodge structures is given, and with the assumption of morphic conjectures, we prove a Hodge index theorem. We answer a question of Friedlander and Lawson by assuming the Grothendieck standard conjecture B and prove that the topological filtration from morphic cohomology is equal to the Grothendieck arithmetic filtration for some cases.
Let X be a smooth, projective variety over the field of complex numbers. On the space H of its rational cohomology of degree i we have the arithmetic filtration F^p. On the other hand, on the space of cohomology of degree i of X with complex coefficients we have the Hodge filtration G^p. It is well known that F^p is contained in the intersection of G^p with H, and that, in general, this inclusion is strict. In this paper we propose a natural substitute S^p for the Hodge filtration space G^p such that the intersection of S^p with H is the space F^p of the arithmetic filtration. In particular, S…
We determine explicitly the Hodge ideals for the determinant hypersurface as an intersection of symbolic powers of determinantal ideals. We prove our results by studying the Hodge and weight filtrations on the mixed Hodge module O_X(*Z) of regular functions on the space X of n x n matrices, with poles along the divisor Z of singular matrices. The composition factors for the weight filtration on O_X(*Z) are pure Hodge modules with underlying D-modules given by the simple GL-equivariant D-modules on X, where GL is the natural group of symmetries, acting by row and column operations on the matrix…
This is our sequel to our previous work on the corresponding generalized Frobenius modules over some big multivariate Robba rings. We will go beyond our previous discussion where we focused on the corresponding analytic functions on polydiscs and polyannuli in the strictly affinoid situation, and general Hodge-Frobenius structures which are admissible in the corresponding context in our previous work.
Certain rigid irregular $G_2$-connections constructed by the first-named author are related via pullbacks along a finite covering and Fourier transform to rigid local systems on a punctured projective line. This kind of property was first observed by Katz for hypergeometric connections and used by Sabbah and Yu to compute irregular Hodge filtrations for hypergeometric connections. This strategy can also be applied to the aforementioned $G_2$-connections and we compute jumping indices and dimensions for their irregular Hodge filtrations.
We consider the Hodge filtration on the sheaf of meromorphic functions along free divisors for which the logarithmic comparison theorem holds. We describe the Hodge filtration steps as submodules of the order filtration on a cyclic presentation in terms of a special factor of the Bernstein-Sato polynomial of the divisor and we conjecture a bound for the generating level of the Hodge filtration. Finally, we develop an algorithm to compute Hodge ideals of such divisors and we apply it to some examples.
The aim of this article is to study degeneration of the variations of Hodge structure associated to a proper Kähler semistable morphism. We prove that the weight filtrations constructed in the author's previous paper coincide with the monodromy weight filtrations on the relative log de Rham cohomology groups of a proper Kähler semistable morphism. Moreover, we show that the limiting mixed Hodge structures form admissible variations of mixed Hodge structure.
We introduce several families of filtrations on the space of vector bundles over a smooth projective variety. These filtrations are defined using the large k asymptotics of the kernel of the Dolbeault Dirac operator on a bundle twisted by the kth power of an ample line bundle. The filtrations measure the failure of the bundle to admit a holomorphic structure. We study compatibility under the Chern isomorphism of these filtrations with the Hodge filtration on cohomology.
We study the Hodge filtration on the local cohomology sheaves of a smooth complex algebraic variety along a closed subscheme Z in terms of log resolutions, and derive applications regarding the local cohomological dimension, the Du Bois complex, local vanishing, and reflexive differentials associated to Z.
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 describe a weight filtration $W$ on the direct image ${\bf j}_{\star}{\cal L} $ and in case a morphism $f: X \to D$ to a complex disc is given with $Y = f^{-1}(0)$, the weight filtration on the complex of nearby cocycles $Ψ_f ({\cal L})$ on $Y$. A comparison theorem shows that the filtration coincides with the weight defined by the logarithm of the monodromy and …
