Tensor products of polarized Hodge structures #
If Q polarizes an integral pure Hodge structure V of weight n and Q' polarizes V' of
weight n', then the tensor product form Q ⊗ Q' polarizes the tensor product V ⊗ V' of weight
n + n' (TauCeti.Hodge.HodgeStructure.tensorProduct, carried by the tensor product of the
lattices).
The Weil operator of the tensor product is the tensor product of the Weil operators, so the Hodge
form of Q ⊗ Q' is the tensor product of the Hodge forms of Q and Q'; as a tensor product of
positive definite Hermitian forms it is positive definite, which is the second Hodge–Riemann
relation. The first Hodge–Riemann relation holds because the Hodge component H^{p,q} of the
tensor product is spanned by the products of the components of V and V' whose bidegrees add
up to (p,q). Positivity also gives nondegeneracy, which descends to the integral form because a
lattice carrying a nondegenerate form is torsion-free, hence flat over ℤ.
Consequently polarizable Hodge structures are closed under tensor products.

The tensor product of two polarizations #
The tensor product of two polarizing forms polarizes the tensor product. If Q
polarizes a Hodge structure of weight n and Q' one of weight n', then Q ⊗ Q' polarizes
their tensor product, of weight n + n'.
