On a Class of Singular Complex Manifolds
Alireza Bahraini
TL;DR
This work defines and analyzes a class of singular complex manifolds arising from degenerate complex structures $J'$ on $X\setminus D$, developing a full Kodaira–Hodge theory in this setting. The authors construct a degenerate hyperKähler structure via degenerate Monge–Ampère equations, formulate a precise definition of degenerate complex manifolds, and establish both weak and strong $L^2$ Hodge theory, including a singular $\partial\bar{\partial}$-lemma and Kodaira theory with vanishing and embedding results for complements of a divisor. Key tools include $L^2$-cohomology on spaces with conical degeneracies (à la Cheeger–Dai), Hörmander $L^2$-estimates with plurisubharmonic weights, and solvability results for $\bar{\partial}_{J'}$ near $D$. The framework extends classical Kähler–Kodaira theory to spaces with complex-analytic singularities and interplays with hypoanalytic/involutive structures, offering potential applications to degenerations, mirror symmetry, and the construction of Lagrangian cycles in singular settings.
Abstract
We introduce a new class of singular complex manifolds and we develop a degenerate Kodaira-Hodge theory for this class of singular manifolds.
