Hodge structures on cohomology algebras and geometry (Q2480872)

The purpose of this paper is to study how the topology of a compact Kähler manifold is restricted by the Hodge decomposition, the Lefschetz isomorphism, and the Lefschetz decomposition. After the author recalls the notion of a Hodge structure, she gives two stability results concerning cohomology algebras endowed with a polarized Hodge structure. The first one shows that if there is a polarized Hodge structure on the tensor product \(M= A\otimes B\) of the cohomology algebras with \(A^1\) or \(B^1= 0\), then both \(A\) and \(B\) have polarized Hodge structures inducing that on \(M\). The second concerns projective bundles. One of crucial ingredients in this paper is Deligne's lemma very much used by the author also in [Invent. Math. 157, No. 2, 329--343 (2004; Zbl 1065.32010)], which allows one to detect sub-lodge structures in a given cohomology algebra. In the last section, those restrictions on the cohomology algebras are shown to be effective through many interesting examples.
