Apologies if the question in the title is too elementary. A reference would be helpful.

Let $f\colon X\to \mathbb{A}^1$ be a smooth projective morphism of complex algebraic manifolds, where the target $\mathbb{A}^1$ is the affine line. Are there any restrictions on the Hodge structures ...

What is the first work that studies, refers to, or mentions the Hodge characteristic? The Hodge polynomial is the unique ring homomorphism $$ P_{hdg}:K_0(\mathbf{Var}/\mathbb{C)}\to \mathbb{Z}[u,v,u^{...

I'm looking for a reference for the answer to the following questions. Let $X$ be an algebraic variety over C. When is the cup product a morphism of Mixed Hodge structures? Does $X$ have to be smooth?...
