Questions tagged [complex-geometry]

Complex geometry is the study of complex manifolds and complex algebraic varieties. It is a part of both differential geometry and algebraic geometry. For elementary questions about geometry in the complex plane, use the tags (complex-numbers) and (geometry) instead.

Let $S$ be a normal projective algebraic surface over a complex numbr field ${\Bbb C}$. Suppose that $S$ has a single isolated singular point $p \in S$. Let $U \colon= S\setminus p$ be a smooth open ...

I'm trying to follow my lecture course in fiber bundles and I'm not sure whether my lecturer has made a mistake. Definition. Let $M$ be a complex manifold. Then define the picard group $\mathrm{Pic} (...

I am currently reading through Malikov, Schechtman and Vaintrob's paper Chiral de Rham Complex. In the proof of Theorem 2.4, i.e. that the chiral de Rham complex extends the usual de Rham complex for ...

I've been studying $\mathrm{Spin}^c$-structures on complex manifolds, in particular attempting to understand why every complex $n$-manifold with $n \geq 2$ has a canonical such structure. The usual ...

I have a very hard time to understand something physicists call $A$ or $B$ twists in the context of topological string theory. A canonical reference seems to be this Witten's paper. Let $\Sigma$ be a ...

Suppose X be a Riemann surface endowed with anti-holomorphic involution $\sigma_X$. $V$ is a holomorphic vector bundle on $X$ with holomorphic connection $D$. It is a fact that $\sigma_X^*\overline{V}$...

I'm working through Kerr's notes (#4 here) in algebraic geometry and am stuck on the following exercise: Show that the existence domain $M$ of $$ \mathfrak{F}(z) = \left( \prod_{i=1}^{2g+2} (z-\...

It is well-known that modular curves parametrize elliptic curves with level structures. For the purpose of this question, I will work complex-analytically and describe analytically the moduli space $$\...

I am stuck on a step in the proof of the proposition on pages 19-20 of Griffiths-Harris's "Principles of Algebraic Geometry" that may be obvious. Let $f: U → V$ be a holomorphic map between ...

I have been learning about the Poincare residue in the context of the cohomology of projective hypersurfaces. For such a hypersurface, $X\subset\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ with defining equation $F$, the ...

All schemes in the following are assumed to be of finite type over $\mathbb C$. Let $\mathbb P^n$ be a projective space and $S$ a scheme. Denote by $$p : \mathbb P^n \times_{\mathbb C} S \to \mathbb P^...

In Huybrechts' Complex Geometry, he defines a morphism of holomorphic vector bundles $\pi_E: E \to X$ and $\pi_F: F \to X$ to be a holomorphic map $f: E \to F$ such that $\pi_E = \pi_F \circ f$, the ...

If you have a given symplectic form $\omega \in \Omega^{2}(M)$ on a smooth manifold $M$ it determines a space $\mathcal{J}(M,\omega)$ of compatible almost complex structures. Now, given a manifold $M$ ...

Here"analytically isomorphic"means that the completion of the local rings of two points in some complex spaces are isomorphic. The smooth case is trivial so the only interesting case is that ...
