Riemann forms polarize the weight-one Hodge structure of a lattice #

Let V be an integral module with an almost complex structure J on its realification ℝ ⊗[ℤ] V, and let E be an integral bilinear form on V. Classically, E is a Riemann form for (V, J) when it is alternating and its real scalar extension E_ℝ satisfies the two Riemann bilinear relations

that is, H (x, y) = E_ℝ (J x) y + i E_ℝ x y is a positive definite Hermitian form for the complex structure J. This is the datum of a polarized abelian variety: (ℤ^{2g}, J, E) with E a Riemann form is a complex torus ℂ^g / Λ together with a polarization.

When V is flat over ℤ, this file shows that a Riemann form is exactly an integral form polarizing the effective weight-one Hodge structure TauCeti.AlmostComplexStructure.latticeHodgeStructure that J defines on V: the Hodge–Riemann relations for that structure, whose Weil operator is the transported J, reduce to the two relations above on the real points, which are the realification. A Riemann form is also nondegenerate when V is flat over ℤ, so nondegeneracy is not part of the definition.

Sign convention: positivity is 0 < E_ℝ (J x) x, as in Birkenhake–Lange, so that the Hermitian form H above is positive definite. It matches the pinned convention of TauCeti.Hodge.IsPolarization, 0 < Q (C x) x for the Weil operator C. The symplectic compatibility predicate TauCeti.SymplecticForm.Compatible uses the opposite sign, 0 < ω x (J x), so a Riemann form is J-compatible in that sense only up to a sign.

Main declarations #

The definitions and conventions follow Birkenhake–Lange, Complex Abelian Varieties, §2.1 and §4.1, and Mumford, Abelian Varieties, §I.3; the Hodge-theoretic reading is Voisin, Hodge Theory and Complex Algebraic Geometry I, Chapter 7.

An integral bilinear form E on V is a Riemann form for an almost complex structure J on the realification of V when it is alternating, its real scalar extension is J-invariant, and E_ℝ (J x) x is positive for every nonzero real vector x.

Nondegeneracy follows when V is flat over ℤ (IsRiemannForm.nondegenerate), so it is not part of this definition.

Instances For

    A Riemann form is nondegenerate, on a flat (for instance free) integral module: the positivity of E_ℝ (J x) x leaves no room for a radical.

    A Riemann form on a flat integral module polarizes the weight-one Hodge structure of its complex structure. For the effective weight-one structure J.latticeHodgeStructure hℂ, whose Weil operator is J, the Hodge–Riemann relations of E are exactly the two Riemann bilinear relations.

      The integral form of the polarization defined by a Riemann form is that form.

      The complex form of the polarization defined by a Riemann form is the complexification of that form.

      Every form polarizing the weight-one Hodge structure of J is a Riemann form for J, with no flatness assumption: J-invariance of E_ℝ says that the Weil operator is an isometry of the polarization, and positivity of E_ℝ (J x) x is positivity of the Hodge form on real vectors.

      When V is flat over ℤ, the Riemann forms for J are exactly the forms polarizing its weight-one Hodge structure. Flatness is used only in the forward direction, for nondegeneracy.

      When V is flat over ℤ, the forms polarizing an effective weight-one Hodge structure are exactly the Riemann forms of its complex structure on the realification. This is TauCeti.AlmostComplexStructure.isRiemannForm_iff_isPolarization read through the round trip TauCeti.AlmostComplexStructure.latticeHodgeStructureEquiv: polarized effective weight-one Hodge structures on a lattice are the data (Λ, J, E) of a polarized abelian variety.
