Hodge theory of secant varieties

Qianyu Chen, Bradley Dirks, Sebastian Olano +1

We study the local cohomology modules for the secant variety of lines of a smooth projective variety and for higher secant varieties of smooth projective curves. We show that t…

Partial Cohomologically Complete Intersections via Hodge Theory

Qianyu Chen, Bradley Dirks, Sebastian Olano

Using Saito's theory of mixed Hodge modules, we study a generalization of Hellus-Schenzel's "cohomologically complete intersection" property. This property is equivalent to pervers…

Multiplier modules, -filtrations and Bernstein-Sato polynomials on singular ambient varieties

Bradley Dirks

We show that the relation between multiplier ideals and -filtration on the structure sheaf due to Budur-Mustaţă-Saito generalizes to singular irreducible varieties, by replacing…

Hirzebruch-Milnor classes of local complete intersections, minimal exponent, and applications to higher singularities

Bradley Dirks, Laurenţiu Maxim, Sebastián Olano

In this paper we use the deformation to the normal cone and the corresponding Verdier-Saito specialization to define and study (spectral) Hirzebruch-Milnor type homology characteri…

The Hilbert series of Hodge ideals of hyperplane arrangements

Bradley Dirks, Mircea Mustata

Given a reduced effective divisor D on a smooth variety X, we describe the generating function for the classes of the Hodge ideals of D in the Grothendieck group of coherent sheave…
