Algebraic de Rham cohomology vs. analytic de Rham cohomology
Let $X$ be a nice variety over $\mathbb{C}$, where nice probably means smooth and proper.
I want to know: How can we show that the hypercohomology of the algebraic de Rham complex …

Why do people think that abelian varieties are the hardest case for the Hodge conjecture?
Today, I heard that people think that if you can prove the Hodge conjecture for abelian varieties, then it should be true in general. Apparently this case is important enough (and …

Two definitions of Calabi-Yau manifolds
Why is it that the vanishing of the integral first Chern class of a compact Kahler manifold is equivalent to the canonical bundle being trivial? I can see that it implies that the …

Are the Dolbeault Operators for a Quotient Space Equivariant?
Let $G$ be a Lie Group and $H$ a closed subgroup such that $G/H$ (the set of right cosets) is a complex manifold manifold. Now $\Omega^1(G/H)$, the space of complex one forms, is a …

Intuition for Primitive Cohomology
In complex projective geometry, we have a specified Kähler class $\omega$ and we have a Lefschetz operator $L:H^i(X,\mathbb{C})\to H^{i+2}(X,\mathbb{C})$ given by $L(\eta)=\omega\w …
