Infinitesimal variations of Hodge structure at infinity

چکیده
By analyzing the local and infinitesimal behavior of degenerating polarized variations of Hodge structure the notion of infinitesimal variation of Hodge structure at infinity is introduced. It is shown that all such structures can be integrated to polarized variations of Hodge structure and that, conversely, all are limits of infinitesimal variations of Hodge structure at finite points. As an illustration of the rich information encoded in this new structure, some instances of the maximal dimension problem for this type of infinitesimal variation are presented and contrasted with the “classical” case of IVHS at finite points.

Infinitesimal variations of Hodge structure and the global Torelli problem∗
The aim of this report is to introduce the infinitesimal variation of Hodge structure as a tool for studying the global Torelli problem. Although our techniques have so far borne fruit only in special cases, we are encouraged by the fact that for the first time we are able to calculate the degree of the period mapping when the Hodge-theoretic classifying space is not hermitian symmetric, as it ...
متن کاملLowest Weights in Cohomology of Variations of Hodge Structure
Let X be an irreducible complex analytic space with j : U →֒ X an immersion of a smooth Zariski open subset, and let V be a variation of Hodge structure of weight n over U . Assume X is compact Kähler. Then provided the local monodromy operators at infinity are quasiunipotent, IH(X,V) is known to carry a pure Hodge structure of weight k+n, while H(U,V) carries a mixed Hodge structure of weight ≥...
متن کاملVariations of Hodge
Varieties generally come to life through the maps between them and the modules (e.g. functions) that live on them. Moduli spaces are no exception to this rule. An important class of maps on moduli spaces (for compact Kähler manifolds) is that of period maps, which are substantially the same thing as the modules known as variations of Hodge structure. The purpose of this paper is twofold. First,...
متن کاملDirect Image of Logarithmic Complexes and Infinitesimal Invariants of Cycles
We show that the direct image of the filtered logarithmic de Rham complex is a direct sum of filtered logarithmic complexes with coefficients in variations of Hodge structures, using a generalization of the decomposition theorem of Beilinson, Bernstein and Deligne to the case of filtered D-modules. As a corollary, we get the total infinitesimal invariant of a (higher) cycle in a direct sum of t...
متن کاملQuasi-fuchsian Manifolds with Particles
We consider 3-dimensional hyperbolic cone-manifolds which are “convex cocompact” in a natural sense, with cone singularities along infinite lines. Such singularities are sometimes used by physicists as models for massive spinless point particles. We prove an infinitesimal rigidity statement when the angles around the singular lines are less than π: any infinitesimal deformation changes either t...
