Holomorphic Bisectional Curvature and Applications to Deformations and Rigidity for Variations of Mixed Hodge Structure

Abstract

In this article, we prove a rigidity criterion for period maps of admissible variations of graded-polarizable mixed Hodge structure, and establish rigidity in a number of cases, including families of quasi-projective curves, projective curves with ordinary double points, the complement of the canonical curve in families of Kynev--Todorov surfaces, period maps attached to the fundamental groups of smooth varieties and normal functions.

G3-Criteria and Applications

The G3-property of a subvariety was introduced by Hironaka-Matsumura, and plays an important role for deducing connectedness and extension results. Unfortunately, it's a rather elusive notion, which is not always easy to establish. Most of the existing work is concentrated on subvarieties of homogeneous varieties. The first goal of this article is to show that mobility assumptions on the subvariety, considered in works of Badescu, Chow, Debarre, Voisin, yield a certain partial positivity property, slightly stronger than G3, previously introduced by the author. Second, we apply the result to prove that, in numerous situations, the splitting of the normal bundle of a smooth two-codimensional subvariety implies that it is a complete intersection.

Nodal degeneration of chiral algebras I: Global structure and gluing formula

We define a natural extension of a universal factorization algebra $\mathcal{A}$ to families of stable punctured curves, by integrating over all semistable modifications. We prove that the resulting sheaf of factorization homology satisfies a natural gluing formula, by tensoring over a certain derived associative algebra $\mathfrak{Z}_{\mathcal{A}}^0$, generalizing the Verlinde formula for gluing of conformal blocks.
