1 Introduction
Let
$\pi : (\mathcal {X}, X)\to (B,0)$
be a complex analytic family such that for each
$t\in B$
the complex structure on
$X_t:=\pi ^{-1}(t)$
is represented by Beltrami differential
$\phi (t)\in A^{0,1}(X,T_X^{1,0})$
. Here and throughout this article, we will always assume B is a polydisc with sufficiently small radius and the reference fiber
$X_0$
is denoted by X unless otherwise stated. The deformed Bott–Chern cohomology and the deformed Aeppli cohomology is defined [Reference XiaXia21] as follows:
$$ \begin{align}\hspace{-34.5pt} H^{p,q}_{BC\phi(t)}(X) &:= \frac{\ker d_{\phi(t)} \cap A^{p,q}(X)}{{ \mathrm{im}\,} { \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)} \cap A^{p,q}(X)}, \end{align} $$
$$ \begin{align} H^{p,q}_{A\phi(t)}(X) &:= \frac{\ker { \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)} \cap A^{p,q}(X)}{({ \mathrm{im}\,} { \partial }+ { \mathrm{im}\,} { \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}) \cap A^{p,q}(X)}. \end{align} $$
Note that when
$t=0$
these are just the usual Bott–Chern and Aeppli cohomology, see [Reference AngellaAng13, Reference Angella and TomassiniAT13, Reference Angella and TomassiniAT15, Reference Angella, Dloussky and TomassiniADT16, Reference Rao and ZouRZ24, Reference SchweitzerSch07, Reference Yang and YangYY20] and [Reference PopoviciPop15, Reference Piovani and TomassiniPT20] for some recent works. One of the main motivations to study these deformed cohomology groups is that they contain information about the cohomology groups on the deformed manifold
$X_t$
and thus could be used as a possible tool to prove deformation invariance of the dimension of corresponding cohomology groups (see [Reference Liu, Rao and YangLRY15, Reference Liu, Sun and YauLSY09, Reference Zhao and RaoZR15, Reference Rao and ZhaoRZ18, Reference Rao and ZhangRZ22, Reference Wei and ZhuWZ24, Reference XiaXia22] for related discussions). Indeed, for any
$p\in \mathbb {N}$
,
While the deformed Bott–Chern cohomology is already studied in [Reference XiaXia21] where a deformation theory of Bott–Chern cohomology has been established, the deformed Aeppli cohomology is relatively unexplored. This is partly due to the fact that the deformed Aeppli cohomology is dual, via the Hodge star operator
$*$
, to the deformed Bott–Chern cohomology (see (2.9)):
It then seems reasonable to expect statements (e.g., the corresponding deformation theory) that is valid for the deformed Bott–Chern cohomology are somehow dual, and thus can be easily translated, to the case of deformed Aeppli cohomology. However, our results in this article will show this is not entirely correct at least when the deformation theory is concerned.
In this article, we will establish a deformation theory for the Aeppli cohomology. In particular, the relations between jumping of
$\dim H^{p,q}_{A\phi (t)}(X)$
and canonical Aeppli deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms will be studied.
Definition 1.1 Given a
$(p,q)$
-form
and
$T\subseteq B$
, which is an analytic subset of B containing
$0$
,
is a family of
$(p,q)$
-forms
$\sigma (t)$
such that
-
1.
$\sigma (t)$
is holomorphic in
$t\in T$
and
$\sigma (0) = y$
; -
2. For any
$t\in T$
, the following holds respectively:-
–
${ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}\sigma (t) = 0$
(Dolbeault); -
–
$d_{\phi (t)}\sigma (t) = 0$
(Bott–Chern); -
–
${ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}\sigma (t) = 0$
(Aeppli).
-
It turns out in order to capture the jumping of
$\dim H^{p,q}_{A\phi (t)}(X)$
both the Bott–Chern deformations of
$(n-p,n-q)$
-forms and the Aeppli deformations of
$(n-p-1,n-q-1)$
-forms are involved. Our new jumping formulas provide a precise description about this dependence relations. More precisely, we have the following theorem.
Theorem 1.1 (=Theorem 4.2)
Let
$\pi : (\mathcal {X}, X)\to (B,0)$
be a complex analytic family such that for each
$t\in B$
the complex structure on
$X_t$
is represented by Beltrami differential
$\phi (t)$
. Suppose X is equipped with a fixed Hermitian metric. For each
$(p,q)\in \mathbb {N}\times \mathbb {N}$
, setFootnote

and
then we have the jumping formula for the deformed Bott–Chern cohomology:
and the jumping formula for the deformed Aeppli cohomology:
In a previous work by the second author, a formula similar to (1.3) was proved [Reference XiaXia21, Theorem 4.13] where
$w^{p,q}_t$
is replaced by
A major advantage of the new jumping formulas in Theorem 1.1 lies in the fact that in contrast to
$u^{p,q}_t$
, both
$v^{p,q}_t$
and
$w^{p,q}_t$
have precise geometric meanings. Roughly speaking,
$w^{p,q}_t$
(
$v^{p,q}_t$
) measures the dimension of the space of Aeppli (Bott–Chern) cohomology classes whose canonical deformations fail to be unobstructed at t, see (4.4). In particular, Bott–Chern (Aeppli) deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms are unobstructed iff
$v^{p,q}_t\equiv 0$
(
$w^{p,q}_t\equiv 0$
). Because of this, we have the following corollary.
Corollary 1.2 In the situation of Theorem 1.1.
-
(1) The deformed Bott–Chern number
$h_{BC\phi (t)}^{p,q}$
is independent of
$t\in B$
if and only if the Bott–Chern deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms and the Aeppli deformations of
$(p-1,q-1)$
-forms are canonically unobstructed. -
(2) The deformed Aeppli number
$h_{A\phi (t)}^{p,q}$
is independent of
$t\in B$
if and only if the Bott–Chern deformations of
$(n-p,n-q)$
-forms and the Aeppli deformations of
$(n-p-1,n-q-1)$
-forms are canonically unobstructed.
This gives a criterion for the deformation invariance of the deformed Bott–Chern and Aeppli numbers in terms of Bott–Chern/Aeppli deformations of forms. This picture is quite similar to results in [Reference Lin and YeLY15] where Lin-Ye discovered that the obstruction to extend Bott–Chern/Aeppli cohomology classes is not zero if the Bott–Chern/Aeppli numbers jumps. By using Corollary 1.2, we are able to show the following (see [Reference Rao, Wan and ZhaoRWZ19, Section 5] for related discussions).
Theorem 1.3 (=Theorem 5.1)
Let
$\pi : (\mathcal {X}, X)\to (B,0)$
be a complex analytic family with Beltrami differentials
$\phi (t)$
. Suppose X is equipped with a fixed Hermitian metric.
-
(1) Assume
${ \partial }_{A,{ \bar {\partial } }(\ker { \partial })}^{p-1,q+1}=0$
. Then the Bott–Chern deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms are canonically unobstructed. -
(2) Assume
${ \partial }_{A,BC}^{p,q+1}=0$
. Then the Aeppli deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms are canonically unobstructed. -
(3) Assume
${ \partial }_{A,{ \bar {\partial } }(\ker { \partial })}^{p-1,q+1}=0$
and
${ \partial }_{A,BC}^{p-1,q}=0$
. Then the deformed Bott–Chern number
$h_{BC\phi (t)}^{p,q}$
is independent of
$t\in B$
. -
(4) Assume
${ \partial }_{A,{ \bar {\partial } }(\ker { \partial })}^{n-p-1,n-q+1}=0$
and
${ \partial }_{A,BC}^{n-p-1,n-q}=0$
. Then the deformed Aeppli number
$h_{A\phi (t)}^{p,q}$
is independent of
$t\in B$
.
Corollary 1.4 The Bott–Chern number
$\dim H_{BC}^{p,0}(X_t)=\dim H_{A}^{n,n-p}(X_t)$
is independent of
$t\in B$
if
${ \partial }_{A,{ \bar {\partial } }(\ker { \partial })}^{p-1,1}=0$
.
The conditions
${ \partial }_{A,{ \bar {\partial } }(\ker { \partial })}^{p-1,q+1}=0$
and
${ \partial }_{A,BC}^{p,q+1}=0$
are related to weak forms of
${ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }$
-lemma whose variants appear in many different context (see, e.g., [Reference Rao, Wan and ZhaoRWZ21, Reference PopoviciPop19, Reference AlessandriniAle, Reference Rao and ZhaoRZ18, Reference Angella and UgarteAU17, Reference Angella and UgarteAU16, Reference Fu and YauFY11]. More precisely,
${ \partial }_{A,{ \bar {\partial } }(\ker { \partial })}^{p-1,q+1}=0$
means for any
$y\in \ker { \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }\cap A^{p-1,q+1}(X)$
there is
$x\in \ker { \partial }\cap A^{p,q}(X)$
such that
${ \partial } y={ \bar {\partial } } x$
;
${ \partial }_{A,BC}^{p,q+1}=0$
means for any
$y\in \ker { \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }\cap A^{p,q+1}(X)$
there is
$x\in A^{p-1,q}(X)$
such that
${ \partial } y={ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } } x$
. Note that
${ \partial }_{A,BC}^{p,q+1}=0$
is exactly the
$(p+1,q+1)$
th mild
${ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }$
-lemma introduced by Rao–Wan–Zhao [Reference Rao, Wan and ZhaoRWZ19, Definition 3.1]. In fact, it was shown in [Reference Rao, Wan and ZhaoRWZ19, Corollary 5.2] that
$\dim H_{BC}^{p,0}(X_t)=\dim H_{A}^{n,n-p}(X_t)$
is independent of
$t\in B$
if the
$(p,1)$
th mild
${ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }$
-lemma, i.e.,
${ \partial }_{A,BC}^{p-1,1}=0$
holds. Our Corollary 1.4 slightly improves this result.
A jumping formula for the Dolbeault cohomology was obtained in [Reference XiaXia22, Theorem 5.10]. By comparing it to the formulas in Theorem 1.1, it is natural to wonder whether
$v^{\bullet ,\bullet }_t$
is somehow related to
$w^{\bullet ,\bullet }_t$
. In Section 6, we present two examples which shows it is possible that
$w^{\bullet ,\bullet }_t\equiv 0$
while at the same time there are some
$(p,q)$
with
$v^{p,q}_t\neq 0$
, see Example 6.1.
In [Reference Popovici, Stelzig and UgartePSU21], Popovici–Stelzig–Ugarte have introduced the higher-page Bott–Chern and Aeppli cohomologies, it would be interesting to study the corresponding deformation theory and jumping formulas of these higher-page cohomologies.
2 Canonical representatives of
$H_{A\phi (t)}^{p,q}(X)$
In this section, we study canonical representatives of the deformed Aeppli cohomology
$H_{A\phi (t)}^{p,q}(X)$
. We show for any deformed Aeppli cohomology class
$\alpha \in H_{A\phi (t)}^{p,q}(X)$
there is a (possibly non-unique) canonical representative
$y\in \alpha $
with
$d^{*}y=0$
. If the harmonic part of
$\alpha $
is fixed, then such y is uniquely determined and can be expressed as a power series (Proposition 2.3). This fact will be important for our later study about the relations between jumping of
$\dim H_{A\phi (t)}^{p,q}(X)$
and the deformation behavior of forms.
2.1 Hodge theory for Bott–Chern and Aeppli cohomology
We first recall some basic facts about Hodge theory which will be used later (see [Reference SchweitzerSch07, Reference PopoviciPop15] for more detailed discussions). Let X be a compact complex manifold equipped with a fixed Hermitian metric, then we have the Hodge star operator
The Bott–Chern/Aeppli cohomology of X is defined by
$$ \begin{align} H^{p,q}_{BC}(X) := \frac{\ker d \cap A^{p,q}(X)}{{ \mathrm{im}\,} { \partial }{ \bar{\partial} } \cap A^{p,q}(X)},\quad H^{p,q}_{A}(X) := \frac{\ker { \partial }{ \bar{\partial} } \cap A^{p,q}(X)}{({ \mathrm{im}\,} { \partial }+ { \mathrm{im}\,} { \bar{\partial} }) \cap A^{p,q}(X)}. \end{align} $$
2.1.1 Bott–Chern/Aeppli Laplacians and Hodge decompositions
The Bott–Chern/Aeppli Laplacian operator of X is defined respectively as
$$ \begin{align} \begin{aligned} \square_{BC}&:=({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}+({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })+ ({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial })({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial })^{*}+({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial })^{*}({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial })+ { \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \bar{\partial} } + { \partial }^{*}{ \partial },\\ \square_{A}&:=({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })+({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}+ ({ \bar{\partial} }{ \partial }^{*})^{*}({ \bar{\partial} }{ \partial }^{*})+({ \bar{\partial} }{ \partial }^{*})({ \bar{\partial} }{ \partial }^{*})^{*}+ { \bar{\partial} }{ \bar{\partial} }^{*} + { \partial }{ \partial }^{*}, \end{aligned} \end{align} $$
where
${ \partial }^{*}=-*{ \bar {\partial } }*$
,
${ \bar {\partial } }^{*}=-*{ \partial }*$
and
$({ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } })^{*}=(-1)^{p+q+1}*{ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }*$
on
$A^{p,q}(X)$
. Set
$$ \begin{align} \begin{aligned} \mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{BC}(X):&=\ker\square_{BC}\cap A^{p,q}(X)=\ker d\cap\ker ({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\cap A^{p,q}(X),\\ \mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{A}(X):&=\ker\square_{A}\cap A^{p,q}(X)=\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\cap\ker d^{*}\cap A^{p,q}(X). \end{aligned} \end{align} $$
Then the Hodge star operator induces an isomorphism
Since
$\square _{BC}, \square _{A}$
are elliptic, the following orthogonal direct sum decompositions hold:
$$ \begin{align} \begin{aligned} A^{\bullet,\bullet}(X)&=\ker\square_{BC}\oplus { \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\oplus ({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }^{*}+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }^{*})\\ &=\ker\square_{A}\oplus { \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\oplus ({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }), \end{aligned} \end{align} $$
which is equivalent to the existence of the (Bott–Chern/Aeppli) Green operator
$G_{BC}, G_{A}$
, such that
where
$\mathcal {H}_{BC}, \mathcal {H}_{A}$
are linear projections onto corresponding harmonic spaces.
2.1.2 Deformed Bott–Chern/Aeppli Laplacians and Hodge decompositions
Now, let
$\pi : (\mathcal {X}, X)\to (B,0)$
be a complex analytic family with Beltrami differentials
$\phi (t)\in A^{0,1}(X,T^{1,0})$
. We have the deformed version of Bott–Chern/Aeppli Laplacian operators
$$ \begin{align} \begin{aligned} \square_{BC\phi(t)}&:=[{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)},({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})^{*}]+ [{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}^{*}{ \partial },({ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}^{*}{ \partial })^{*}]+ { \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}^{*}{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)} + { \partial }^{*}{ \partial },\\ \square_{A\phi(t)}&:=[{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)},({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})^{*}]+ [({ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }^{*})^{*},{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }^{*}]+ { \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}^{*} + { \partial }{ \partial }^{*}. \end{aligned} \end{align} $$
Since
$\square _{BC\phi (t)}, \square _{A\phi (t)}$
are still elliptic, deformed versions of (2.4) and (2.5) also holds:
$$ \begin{align} \begin{aligned} A^{\bullet,\bullet}(X)&=\ker\square_{BC\phi(t)}\oplus { \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\oplus ({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }^{*}+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}^{*})\\ &=\ker\square_{A\phi(t)}\oplus { \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})^{*}\oplus ({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}). \end{aligned} \end{align} $$
Set
$$ \begin{align} \begin{aligned} \mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{BC\phi(t)}(X):&=\ker\square_{BC\phi(t)}\cap A^{p,q}(X)=\ker d_{\phi(t)}\cap\ker ({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})^{*}\cap A^{p,q}(X),\\ \mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{A\phi(t)}(X):&=\ker\square_{A\phi(t)}\cap A^{p,q}(X)=\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\cap\ker d^{*}_{\phi(t)}\cap A^{p,q}(X). \end{aligned} \end{align} $$
2.1.3 Formal adjoint of
${ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi }$
Proposition 2.1 For any
$\phi \in A^{0,1}(X, T^{1,0})$
, let
$i_{\phi }^{*}, (\mathcal {L}_{\phi }^{1,0})^{*}, { \bar {\partial } }_{\phi }^{*}, ({ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi })^{*}$
be the formal adjoint of
$i_{\phi }, \mathcal {L}_{\phi }^{1,0}, { \bar {\partial } }_{\phi }={ \bar {\partial } }-\mathcal {L}_{\phi }^{1,0}, { \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi }$
, respectively. Then the following:
-
•
$i_{\phi }^{*}=(-1)^{p+q+1}*(i_{\bar {\phi }})*$
; -
•
$(\mathcal {L}_{\phi }^{1,0})^{*}=-*(\mathcal {L}_{\bar {\phi }}^{0,1})*$
; -
•
${ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi }^{*}=-*({ \partial }_{\bar {\phi }})*$
; -
•
$({ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi })^{*}=(-1)^{p+q+1}*({ \partial }_{\bar {\phi }}{ \bar {\partial } })*$
,
holds on
$A^{p,q}(X)$
where
Proof Let
$\xi \in A^{p+1,q-1}(X)$
and
$\eta \in A^{p,q}(X)$
, then
$0=\xi {\,\wedge \,}\overline {*\eta }$
. As a result,
which implies
Hence,
For
$\mathcal {L}_{\phi }^{1,0}=i_{\phi }{ \partial }-{ \partial } i_{\phi }$
, we have
$$ \begin{align*} (\mathcal{L}_{\phi}^{1,0})^{*}&=(i_{\phi}{ \partial }-{ \partial } i_{\phi})^{*}\\ &={ \partial }^{*} i_{\phi}^{*}-i_{\phi}^{*}{ \partial }^{*}\\ &=-*{ \bar{\partial} }*(-1)^{p+q+1}*~i_{\bar{\phi}}~*-(-1)^{p+q}*~i_{\bar{\phi}}~*(-1)*{ \bar{\partial} }*\\ &=*{ \bar{\partial} } i_{\bar{\phi}}*-*i_{\bar{\phi}}{ \bar{\partial} }*=-*\mathcal{L}_{\bar{\phi}}^{0,1}*. \end{align*} $$
It follows that
$$ \begin{align*} { \bar{\partial} }_{\phi}^{*}&=({ \bar{\partial} }-\mathcal{L}_{\phi}^{1,0})^{*}\\ &={ \bar{\partial} }^{*}-(\mathcal{L}_{\phi}^{1,0})^{*}\\ &=-*{ \partial }*~+~*\mathcal{L}_{\bar{\phi}}^{0,1}*=-*({ \partial }_{\bar{\phi}})*, \end{align*} $$
and
As a direct consequence, we have the following corollary.
Corollary 2.2 The following homomorphism
is an isomorphism.
Proof This follows since
$*(\ker d_{\phi (t)})=\ker d_{\overline {\phi (t)}}^{*}$
and
$*(\ker ({ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)})^{*})=\ker { \bar {\partial } }{ \partial }_{\overline {\phi (t)}}$
.
Hence, the duality between deformed Bott–Chern and Aeppli cohomology becomes
2.2
$d^{*}$
-closed representatives of the deformed Aeppli cohomology
Proposition 2.3 The following holds:
-
(1) For any
$\sigma \in A^{p,q}(X)$
, if
${ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)} \sigma =0$
and
${ \partial }^{*}\sigma ={ \bar {\partial } }^{*}\sigma =0$
, then we must have where
$$\begin{align*}\sigma=\mathcal{H}_{A}\sigma + G_{A}({ \partial }\bar{{ \partial }})^{*}{ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial } \sigma, \end{align*}$$
$\mathcal {H}_{A}: A^{p,q}(X)\to \mathcal {H}^{p,q}_{A}(X)$
is the projection operator to harmonic space.
-
(2) For any fixed
$\sigma _0\in \mathcal {H}^{p,q}_{A}(X)$
and small t, the equation (2.10)has an unique solution given by
$$ \begin{align} \sigma=\sigma_0 + G_{A}({ \partial }\bar{{ \partial }})^{*}{ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial } \sigma, \end{align} $$
$\sigma =\sum _{k} \sigma _k\in A^{p,q}(X)$
and
$$\begin{align*}\sigma_{k}=G_{A}({ \partial }\bar{{ \partial }})^{*}\sum_{i+j=k} { \partial } i_{\phi_j} { \partial }\sigma_i,\quad\forall k> 0. \end{align*}$$
-
(3)
$\ker { \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}\cap { \mathrm {im}\,}({ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }})^{*}=\ker d_{\phi (t)}\cap { \mathrm {im}\,} d^{*}={ \mathrm {im}\,} d\cap { \mathrm {im}\,}({ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }}_{\phi (t)})^{*}=0$
for small t.
Proof
$(1)$
follows from the Hodge decomposition:
where we have used the fact that
$\square _{A} \sigma =({ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }})^{*}{ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }} \sigma $
if
${ \partial }^{*}\sigma ={ \bar {\partial } }^{*}\sigma =0$
.
$(2)$
Substitute
$\sigma =\sigma (t)=\sum _{k}\sigma _k$
in (2.10), we have
$$ \begin{align} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \sigma_1 &= G_{A}({ \partial }\bar{{ \partial }})^{*} { \partial } i_{\phi_1}{ \partial } \sigma_0, \\ \sigma_2 &= G_{A}({ \partial }\bar{{ \partial }})^{*} ({ \partial } i_{\phi_2}{ \partial } \sigma_0 + { \partial } i_{\phi_1}{ \partial } \sigma_1 ),\\ &\cdots, \\ \sigma_k &= G_{A}({ \partial }\bar{{ \partial }})^{*}\sum_{i+j=k} { \partial } i_{\phi_j} { \partial }\sigma_i ,~~\forall k> 0. \\ \end{array} \right. \end{align} $$
For the convergence of
$\sigma (t)$
, we note that
for some constant C depends only on k and
$\alpha $
. Now it is left to show the uniqueness. Let
$\sigma $
and
$\sigma '$
be two solutions to
$\sigma =\sigma _0+G_{A}({ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }})^{*} { \partial } i_{\phi }{ \partial } \sigma $
and set
$\tau =\sigma -\sigma '$
. Then
$\tau =G_{A}({ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }})^{*} { \partial } i_{\phi }{ \partial } \tau $
, we have
for some constant
$c>0$
. When
$|t|$
is sufficiently small,
$\|\phi (t)\|_{k+\alpha }$
is also small. Hence we must have
$\tau =0$
. For smoothness of the solution, note that we have
which implies
which is a standard elliptic equation for small t.
$(3)$
Assume
$\sigma \in \ker { \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}\cap { \mathrm {im}\,}({ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }})^{*}$
. Then we have
$\mathcal {H}_{A}\sigma =0$
and
$\sigma =\mathcal {H}_{A}\sigma + G_{A}({ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }})^{*}{ \partial } i_{\phi (t)}{ \partial } \sigma $
by
$(1)$
. It follows from
$(2)$
that
$\sigma =0$
.
Similarly, assume
$\sigma \in \ker d_{\phi (t)}\cap { \mathrm {im}\,} d^{*}$
. Then
with
$\sigma _0:=\mathcal {H}_{BC}\sigma $
. Applying the Bott–Chern harmonic projection
$\mathcal {H}_{BC}$
to the both sides of this equation, we immediately get
$\sigma _0=0$
. Hence we must have
$\sigma =0$
.
Assume
$\tilde {\sigma }\in { \mathrm {im}\,} d\cap { \mathrm {im}\,}({ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }}_{\phi (t)})^{*}\cap A^{p,q}(X)$
. Then it follows from Proposition 2.1 that
which means
So in order to prove
${ \mathrm {im}\,} d\cap { \mathrm {im}\,}({ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }}_{\phi (t)})^{*}=0$
we only need to show
${ \mathrm {im}\,} d^{*}\cap { \mathrm {im}\,}{ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}=0$
. This is clear since
Proposition 2.4 Let
$\sigma =\sigma (t)$
be a solution of the equation (2.10) in Proposition 2.3. Then for any small
$t\in B$
, we have
Moreover, we have
${ \partial } i_{\phi (t)}{ \partial }\sigma (t)\in \ker d$
for any small
$t\in B$
.
Proof If
${ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}\sigma (t) = 0$
, then
${ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }\sigma (t)={ \partial } i_{\phi (t)}{ \partial }\sigma (t)$
which implies
$\mathcal {H}_{BC}\Big ({ \partial } i_{\phi (t)}{ \partial }\sigma (t)\Big )=0$
.
Conversely, suppose
$\mathcal {H}_{BC}\Big ({ \partial } i_{\phi (t)}{ \partial }\sigma (t)\Big )=0$
. Then
$$ \begin{align*} { \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t) &=G_{BC}\square_{BC}{ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\\ &=G_{BC}\Big( ({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}+ ({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial })({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial })^{*}+{ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \bar{\partial} }\Big) { \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t). \end{align*} $$
Set
Recall that since the Maurer–Cartan equation
${ \bar {\partial } }\phi (t)=\frac {1}{2}[\phi (t),\phi (t)]$
holds, we have
By substituting (2.10) and using (2.16), we get
$$ \begin{align*} \psi(t)&={ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\Big(G_{A}({ \partial }\bar{{ \partial }})^{*}{ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial } \sigma(t)\Big)-{ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\\ &=G_{BC}{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }({ \partial }\bar{{ \partial }})^{*}{ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial } \sigma(t)-{ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\\ &=-G_{BC}\Big( { \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial }{ \partial }^{*}+{ \bar{\partial} }^{*} \Big){ \bar{\partial} }{ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\\ &=G_{BC}\Big( { \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial }{ \partial }^{*}+{ \bar{\partial} }^{*} \Big){ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\mathcal{L}^{1,0}_{\phi(t)}\sigma(t)\\ &=G_{BC}\Big( { \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial }{ \partial }^{*}+{ \bar{\partial} }^{*} \Big){ \partial }(-\mathcal{L}^{1,0}_{\phi(t)}{ \bar{\partial} }+\mathcal{L}^{1,0}_{{ \bar{\partial} }\phi(t)} )\sigma(t)\\ &=G_{BC}\Big( { \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial }{ \partial }^{*}+{ \bar{\partial} }^{*} \Big){ \partial }(-i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }+\mathcal{L}^{1,0}_{\phi(t)}\mathcal{L}^{1,0}_{\phi(t)} )\sigma(t)\\ &=G_{BC}\Big( { \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial }{ \partial }^{*}+{ \bar{\partial} }^{*} \Big){ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}(-{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }+{ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial } )\sigma(t)\\ &=-G_{BC}\Big( { \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial }{ \partial }^{*}+{ \bar{\partial} }^{*} \Big){ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}\psi(t) \end{align*} $$
which implies
where C depends only on k and
$\alpha $
. Now choose small
$|t|$
so that
$C \|\phi (t)\|_{k+\alpha }<1$
, then we get
$\|\psi (t)\|_{k+\alpha }< \|\psi (t)\|_{k+\alpha }$
which is a contradiction if
$\psi (t)\neq 0$
. So, we must have
$\psi (t)=0$
whenever
$|t|$
is small enough. This proves (2.15).
Finally, since by (2.10) we have
${ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }\sigma (t)={ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } } G_{A}({ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }})^{*}{ \partial } i_{\phi (t)}{ \partial } \sigma $
, it follows that
$$ \begin{align*} &{ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\\ &=\mathcal{H}_{BC}\Big({ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\Big)+G_{BC}\Big( ({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}+ ({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial })({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial })^{*}+{ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \bar{\partial} }\Big) { \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\\ &=\mathcal{H}_{BC}\Big({ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\Big)+\Big(({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })G_{A}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}+G_{BC}({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial })({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial })^{*}+G_{BC}{ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \bar{\partial} }\Big) { \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\\ &=\mathcal{H}_{BC}\Big({ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\Big)+{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\sigma(t)+G_{BC}\Big(({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial })({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial })^{*}+{ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \bar{\partial} }\Big) { \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t), \end{align*} $$
which combined with (2.15) will imply
As a result, we get
$$\begin{align*}&{\partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\\ &=\mathcal{H}_{BC}\Big({ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\Big)+G_{BC}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}{ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\in\ker d.\\[-34pt] \end{align*}$$
Remark 2.5 In the Bott–Chern case, similar proofs will show that if
$\sigma =\sigma (t)$
is a solution to
$\sigma =\sigma _0 - G_{BC}({ \bar {\partial } }^{*}{ \partial }{ \partial }^{*}+{ \bar {\partial } }^{*}) { \partial } i_{\phi (t)} \sigma $
for some given
$\sigma _0\in \mathcal {H}^{p,q}_{BC}(X)$
, then
For a vector space A and its subspaces
$V,W,U$
, if we have a direct sum decomposition
then the following homomorphism
where
$u=v+w\in V\oplus W$
, is an isomorphism. In case that
$U\cap W=\{0\}$
, then
$U\cong V\cap (U+W)$
. This simple observation will be used frequently.
Proposition 2.6 The natural map
$$ \begin{align} \frac{\ker d^{*}\cap\ker { \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)} \cap A^{p,q}(X)}{\ker d^{*}\cap ({ \mathrm{im}\,} { \partial }+ { \mathrm{im}\,} { \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}) \cap A^{p,q}(X)}\longrightarrow H_{A\phi(t)}^{p,q}(X) \end{align} $$
is an isomorphism.
Proof By (2.4) and (2.7), we have the following orthogonal direct sum decompositionFootnote 2
which implies
and
$$ \begin{align*} { \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}&=\left(\ker d^{*}\cap({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})\right)\oplus\\ &\left(({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})\cap({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }+\ker{ \partial }^{*}\cap\ker{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}^{*})\right). \end{align*} $$
Moreover, according to (2.17), we have
$$\begin{align*}\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\cap\left({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})^{*}\right)\cong\frac{{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }}{({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} })\cap{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})^{*}} \end{align*}$$
and
$$\begin{align*}({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})\cap({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }+\ker{ \partial }^{*}\cap\ker{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}^{*}) \cong\frac{{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }}{({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} })\cap\ker{ \partial }^{*}\cap\ker{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}^{*}}. \end{align*}$$
Hence,
$$\begin{align*}H_{A\phi(t)}^{p,q}(X)\cong \frac{\ker d^{*}\cap\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)} }{\ker d^{*}\cap({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}) } \oplus \frac{({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} })\cap\ker{ \partial }^{*}\cap\ker{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}^{*} }{({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} })\cap{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})^{*} }. \end{align*}$$
The conclusion now follows because
$({ \mathrm {im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm {im}\,}{ \bar {\partial } })\cap \ker { \partial }^{*}\cap \ker { \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}^{*}=0$
by
$(3)$
of Proposition 2.3. Indeed, note that
3 Canonical Aeppli deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms
In this section, we introduce the notion of canonical Aeppli deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms and study some of its basic properties.
3.1 Dolbeault/Bott–Chern/Aeppli deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms
Let
$\pi : (\mathcal {X}, X)\to (B,0)$
be a complex analytic family such that for each
$t\in B$
the complex structure on
$X_t$
is represented by Beltrami differential
$\phi (t)$
. In order to motivate the definition of Aeppli deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms, we will also recall the definitions of Dolbeault/Bott–Chern deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms studied in [Reference XiaXia22, Reference XiaXia21].
Definition 3.1 Given a
$(p,q)$
-form
and
$T\subseteq B$
, which is an analytic subset of B containing
$0$
,
is a family of
$(p,q)$
-forms
$\sigma (t)$
such that
-
1.
$\sigma (t)$
is holomorphic in
$t\in T$
and
$\sigma (0) = y$
; -
2.
$\forall t\in T$
, the following holds respectively:-
–
${ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}\sigma (t) = 0$
(Dolbeault); -
–
$d_{\phi (t)}\sigma (t) = 0$
(Bott–Chern); -
–
${ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}\sigma (t) = 0$
(Aeppli).
-
A Dolbeault/Bott–Chern/Aeppli deformation of a class
(w.r.t.
$\pi $
) on T is a triple
$(y,\sigma (t),T)$
which consisting of a representative
$y\in \alpha $
and a Dolbeault/Bott–Chern/Aeppli deformation
$\sigma (t)$
of y (w.r.t.
$\pi $
) on T. Two deformations
$(y,\sigma (t),T)$
and
$(y',\sigma ' (t),T)$
of
$[y]$
of
$\alpha $
on T are equivalent if
3.1.1 Canonical deformations
Definition 3.2 Assume X is equipped with a fixed Hermitian metric h. Correspondingly, we have the following notions for canonical deformations:
-
Dolbeault A Dolbeault deformation
$\sigma (t)$
of
$y\in \ker { \bar {\partial } }$
on T is called canonical if
$\sigma (t)$
is of the form such that
$$\begin{align*}\sigma(t)=\sigma^h(t)+{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}u, \end{align*}$$
-
•
$\sigma ^h(t) = \mathcal {H}_{{ \bar {\partial } }}y + { \bar {\partial } }^{*}G \mathcal {L}_{\phi (t)}^{1,0}\sigma ^h(t),~\forall t\in T$
; -
•
${ \bar {\partial } } u=y-\mathcal {H}_{{ \bar {\partial } }}y$
.
-
-
Bott–Chern A Bott–Chern deformation
$\sigma (t)$
of
$y\in \ker d$
on T is called canonical if
$\sigma (t)$
is of the form such that
$$\begin{align*}\sigma(t)=\sigma^h(t)+{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}u, \end{align*}$$
-
•
$\sigma ^h(t) = \mathcal {H}_{BC}y - G_{BC}({ \bar {\partial } }^{*}{ \partial }{ \partial }^{*}+{ \bar {\partial } }^{*}) { \partial } i_{\phi (t)} \sigma ^h(t),~\forall t\in T$
; -
•
${ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } } u=y-\mathcal {H}_{BC}y$
.
-
-
Aeppli An Aeppli deformation
$\sigma (t)$
of
$y\in \ker { \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }$
on T is called canonical if
$\sigma (t)$
is of the form such that
$$\begin{align*}\sigma(t)=\sigma^h(t)+{ \partial } v+{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}u, \end{align*}$$
-
•
$\sigma ^h(t) = \mathcal {H}_{A}y + G_{A}({ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }})^{*}{ \partial } i_{\phi (t)}{ \partial } \sigma ^h(t),~\forall t\in T$
; -
•
${ \partial } v+{ \bar {\partial } } u=y-\mathcal {H}_{A}y$
.
-
Under this definition, Dolbeault/Bott–Chern/Aeppli-exact forms can always deform canonically into a family of deformed Dolbeault/Bott–Chern/Aeppli-exact forms. For example, in the Aeppli case, if
$y={ \partial } v+{ \bar {\partial } } u$
, then
$\sigma (t)={ \partial } v+{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}u$
is clearly a canonical (Aeppli) deformation of y on B. In fact, we have the following proposition.
Proposition 3.1 Let
$\alpha \in H_{{ \bar {\partial } }}^{p,q}(X)/H_{BC}^{p,q}(X)/H_{A}^{p,q}(X)$
. Suppose a Hermitian metric on X is fixed. Then any two canonical Dolbeault/Bott–Chern/Aeppli deformation of
$\alpha $
(on some common domain T) are equivalent.
Proof Let us take the case of canonical Aeppli deformation as an example, the other two cases are similar. Indeed, let
$y, y'\in \alpha $
and
$\alpha \in H_{A}^{p,q}(X)$
. If
$\sigma (t)=\sigma ^h(t)+{ \partial } v+{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}u$
and
$\sigma '(t)=\sigma ^{'h}(t)+{ \partial } v'+{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}u'$
are canonical Aeppli deformation of
$y, y'$
(on T), respectively. Then by Proposition 2.3, we have
$\sigma ^h(t)=\sigma ^{'h}(t)$
since
$\mathcal {H}_{A}y=\mathcal {H}_{A}y'$
. Now,
from which we conclude that
$\sigma (t)$
is equivalent to
$\sigma '(t)$
.
Remark 3.2 In our previous work [Reference XiaXia22, Reference XiaXia21], canonical deformations have slightly different meanings. They coincide with Definition 3.2 for (Dolbeault/Bott–Chern) harmonic forms. In view of the principle “exact forms/zero classes can always deforms into a family of deformed exact forms/zero classes,” the definitions given as above seems better suited for our purpose. In particular, it follows immediately from Definition 3.2 that canonical Dolbeault/Bott–Chern/Aeppli deformations of exact forms always exist and are equivalent to the trivial deformation. This is exactly the content of [Reference XiaXia21, Lemma 5.6] (in the Dolbeault case). On the other hand, we point out that under Definition 3.2 canonical deformation of a given closed form is not unique in general. However, by Proposition 3.1 the equivalence classes of canonical deformations of a given closed form/class are unique as long as we fix the Hermitian metric on X.
3.1.2 Unobstructedness and canonically unobstructedness
Definition 3.3 Suppose there is a complex analytic family
$\pi : (\mathcal {X}, X)\to (B,0)$
.
-
(1) A
$(p,q)$
-form
$y\in \ker { \bar {\partial } }/\ker d/\ker { \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }$
is said to be (canonically) unobstructed w.r.t.
$\pi $
if a (canonical) deformation of y (w.r.t.
$\pi $
) exists on B. -
(2) A class
$\alpha \in H_{{ \bar {\partial } }}^{p,q}(X)/H_{BC}^{p,q}(X)/H_{A}^{p,q}(X)$
is (canonically) unobstructed w.r.t.
$\pi $
if there is a
$y\in \alpha $
such that y is (canonically) unobstructed w.r.t.
$\pi $
. -
(3) If every class in
$H_{{ \bar {\partial } }}^{p,q}(X)/H_{BC}^{p,q}(X)/H_{A}^{p,q}(X)$
have canonically unobstructed deformation w.r.t.
$\pi $
, then we say classes in
$H_{{ \bar {\partial } }}^{p,q}(X)/H_{BC}^{p,q}(X)/H_{A}^{p,q}(X)$
are canonically unobstructed w.r.t.
$\pi $
or the Dolbeault/Bott–Chern/Aeppli deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms on X is canonically unobstructed w.r.t.
$\pi $
. If this holds for any other complex analytic family of X, we will accordingly drop the term “w.r.t.
$\pi $
.”
For any
$y\in \mathcal {H}_{A}^{p,q}(X)$
, if
$p=n$
or
$q=n$
then it is always canonically unobstructed by definition: its canonical deformation is given by
$\sigma (t)\equiv y$
.
3.2 The dimension of
$\ker ({ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } })^{*}\cap { \mathrm {im}\,}{ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}$
Recall the following proposition:
Proposition 3.3 [Reference XiaXia21, Proposition 4.3]
Let
$\pi : (\mathcal {X}, X)\to (B,0)$
be a complex analytic family such that for each
$t\in B$
the complex structure on
$X_t$
is represented by Beltrami differential
$\phi (t)$
.
-
(1) For any fixed
$t\in B$
, the following homomorphism: is surjective with
$$ \begin{align*} g_t:\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\cap A^{p,q}(X)&\longrightarrow \ker({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\cap{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\cap A^{p+1,q+1}(X)\\ x_0&\longmapsto { \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}x(t), \end{align*} $$
where
$$\begin{align*}\ker g_t=\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\cap\left(\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}+{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\right)\cap A^{p,q}(X), \end{align*}$$
$x(t)$
is the unique solution of
$x(t)=x_0 + ({ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } })^{*}G_{BC} { \partial } i_{\phi (t)} { \partial } x(t)$
.
-
(2) Let
be the restriction of
$$\begin{align*}\hat{g}_t:\mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{BC}(X)\longrightarrow \ker({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\cap{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\cap A^{p+1,q+1}(X) \end{align*}$$
$g_t$
on
$\mathcal {H}^{p,q}_{BC}(X)$
. Then
$\hat {g}_t$
is surjective with Moreover, we have
$$\begin{align*}\ker \hat{g}_t=\mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{BC}(X)\cap\left(\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}+{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\right). \end{align*}$$
$$ \begin{align*} \dim\mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{BC}(X)&=\dim\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\cap(\mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{BC}(X)+{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*})\cap A^{p,q}(X)\\+ &\dim \ker({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\cap{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\cap A^{p+1,q+1}(X). \end{align*} $$
Proposition 3.4 In the context of Proposition 3.3, let
be the restriction of
$g_t$
on
$\mathcal {H}^{p,q}_{A}(X)$
. Then
$\check {g}_t$
is surjective with
Moreover, we have
$$ \begin{align*} \dim\mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{A}(X)&=\dim\ker{ \partial }^{*}\cap\ker{ \bar{\partial} }^{*}\cap\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\cap A^{p,q}(X)\\&\quad+ \dim \ker({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\cap{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\cap A^{p+1,q+1}(X). \end{align*} $$
Proof It follows immediately from
$\ker g_t=\ker { \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }\cap \left (\ker { \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}+{ \mathrm {im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } })^{*}\right )$
that
To show
$\check {g}_t$
is surjective it is enough to show
$$\begin{align*}\frac{\mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{A}(X)}{\mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{A}(X)\cap\left(\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}+{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\right)}\cong \frac{\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\cap A^{p,q}(X)}{\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\cap\left(\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}+{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\right)\cap A^{p,q}(X)}. \end{align*}$$
Indeed, it follows from (see
$(3)$
of Proposition 2.3)
that
$$ \begin{align*} \ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }&= \mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{A}(X)\oplus({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+ { \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} })\\ &\cong \mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{A}(X)\oplus[\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\cap({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})^{*})] \end{align*} $$
and
$$ \begin{align*} &\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\cap\left(\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}+{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\right)\cong\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\\ &\quad =\left\{\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\cap ({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})^{*})\right\}\oplus\\ &\left\{\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\cap[{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})^{*}+\ker{ \partial }^{*}\cap\ker{ \bar{\partial} }^{*}\cap\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}]\right\}\\ &\quad \cong \left\{\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\cap ({ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \bar{\partial} }+{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)})^{*})\right\}\oplus \left(\ker{ \partial }^{*}\cap\ker{ \bar{\partial} }^{*}\cap\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\right). \end{align*} $$
On the other hand, we note that
$$ \begin{align*} \mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{A}(X)\cap\left(\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}+{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\right)&=\mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{A}(X)\cap\left(\ker d^{*}\cap\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}+{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\right)\\ (\text{since}~\ker d^{*}=\mathcal{H}^{p,q}_{A}(X)\oplus{ \mathrm{im}\,}({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*})&\cong\ker d^{*}\cap\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\\ &=\ker{ \partial }^{*}\cap\ker{ \bar{\partial} }^{*}\cap\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}.\\[-34pt] \end{align*} $$
4 Jumping formulas for Bott–Chern/Aeppli cohomology
Let
$\pi : (\mathcal {X}, X)\to (B,0)$
be a complex analytic family such that for each
$t\in B$
the complex structure on
$X_t$
is represented by Beltrami differential
$\phi (t)$
. In this section, we prove jumping formulas for the deformed Bott–Chern and Aeppli cohomology. These formulas precisely relate the canonical Bott–Chern/Aeppli deformations of forms to the jumping behavior of
$\dim H_{BC\phi (t)}^{p,q}(X)$
,
$\dim H_{A\phi (t)}^{p,q}(X)$
with respect to parameter t.
4.1 Jumping of cohomology dimensions and canonical deformations
For any
$t\in B$
and a vector subspace
$V\subseteq \mathcal {H}_{BC}^{p,q}(X)$
, the following was introduced in [Reference XiaXia21, Definition 4.5]:
$$ \begin{align} \begin{aligned} V_{BC,t}^{p,q}:= &\Big\{ \sigma_0\in V \mid \sigma(t)\in\ker d_{\phi(t)},~\text{where}~\sigma (t)=\sum_{k\geq0} \sigma_k~\text{with}\\ &\sigma_{k}=-G_{BC}({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial }{ \partial }^{*}+{ \bar{\partial} }^{*})\sum_{i+j=k} { \partial } i_{\phi_j} \sigma_i,~\forall k> 0 \Big\}. \end{aligned} \end{align} $$
When
$V=\mathcal {H}_{BC}^{p,q}(X)$
, we have (c.f. [Reference XiaXia21, Proposition 4.7])
which implies
$$ \begin{align} \begin{aligned} v^{p,q}_t&:=\dim H_{BC}^{p,q}(X)-\dim \ker d_{\phi(t)}\cap\ker({ \partial }\bar{{ \partial }})^{*}\cap A^{p,q}(X)\\ &=\dim H_{BC}^{p,q}(X)-\dim V_{BC,t}^{p,q}. \end{aligned} \end{align} $$
These constructions for Bott–Chern deformations have Aeppli analogs as follows.
Definition 4.1 For any
$t\in B$
and a vector subspace
$W\subseteq \mathcal {H}_{A}^{p,q}(X)$
, we set
$$ \begin{align*} W_{t}^{p,q}:= &\Big\{ \sigma_0\in W \mid \sigma(t)\in\ker { \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)},\\ &\text{where}~\sigma (t)=\sum_{k} \sigma_k~\text{with}~\sigma_k=G_{A}({ \partial }\bar{{ \partial }})^{*}\sum_{i+j=k} { \partial } i_{\phi_j} { \partial }\sigma_i,~\forall k>0 \Big\}, \end{align*} $$
and
$$ \begin{align*} f_t^{p,q}: &W_{t}^{p,q} \longrightarrow \frac{\ker d^{*}\cap\ker { \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)} \cap A^{p,q}(X)}{\ker d^{*}\cap ({ \mathrm{im}\,} { \partial }+ { \mathrm{im}\,} { \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}) \cap A^{p,q}(X)}\cong H_{A\phi(t)}^{p,q}(X),\\ &\sigma_0\longmapsto \sigma(t)=\sum_{k} \sigma_k,~\text{where}~\sigma_{k}=G_{A}({ \partial }\bar{{ \partial }})^{*}\sum_{i+j=k} { \partial } i_{\phi_j} { \partial }\sigma_i,~\forall k>0. \end{align*} $$
Remark 4.1 In view of Proposition 3.1, the requirement of W being a subspace of the harmonic space
$\mathcal {H}_{A}^{p,q}(X)$
may be removed. More precisely, for any subspace
of dimension l. Set
$\tilde {W}:={ \mathbb {C} }\{\sigma _0^1,\ldots ,\sigma _0^l\}$
and
Then it follows from Proposition 3.1 that we have an isomorphism
$$ \begin{align*} \mathcal{H}_{A}: &\tilde{W}_{t}^{p,q} \longrightarrow W_{t}^{p,q},\\ &\sigma_0\longmapsto \mathcal{H}_{A}\sigma_0, \end{align*} $$
where
$W_{t}^{p,q}$
is as in Definition 4.1 for
$W={ \mathbb {C} }\{\mathcal {H}_{A}\sigma _0^1,\ldots ,\mathcal {H}_{A}\sigma _0^l\}$
.
By definition, the space
$W_{t}^{p,q}$
.According to Proposition 2.3, the following linear mapping
$$ \begin{align*} \tilde{f}_t^{p,q}: &W_{t}^{p,q} \longrightarrow \ker d^{*}\cap\ker { \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)} \cap A^{p,q}(X),\\ &\sigma_0\longmapsto \sigma(t)=\sum_{k} \sigma_k,~\text{where}~\sigma_{k}=G_{A}({ \partial }\bar{{ \partial }})^{*}\sum_{i+j=k} { \partial } i_{\phi_j} { \partial }\sigma_i,~\forall k\neq 0, \end{align*} $$
is an isomorphism for any small
$t\in B$
. In particular, when
$W=\mathcal {H}_{A}^{p,q}(X)$
,
$$ \begin{align} \begin{aligned} w_{t}^{p,q}&:=\dim H_{A}^{p,q}(X)-\dim\ker{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\cap\ker d^{*}\cap A^{p,q}(X)\\ &=\dim H_{A}^{p,q}(X) - \dim W_{t}^{p,q}, \end{aligned} \end{align} $$
and
$f_t^{p,q}$
is surjective with
$\ker f_t^{p,q}\cong \ker d^{*}\cap ({ \mathrm {im}\,} { \partial }+ { \mathrm {im}\,} { \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)})\cap A^{p,q}(X)$
. On the other hand, we have the following section.
4.2 The jumping formulas
Theorem 4.2 Let
$\pi : (\mathcal {X}, X)\to (B,0)$
be a complex analytic family such that for each
$t\in B$
the complex structure on
$X_t$
is represented by Beltrami differential
$\phi (t)$
. Suppose X is equipped with a fixed Hermitian metric. Then for each
$(p,q)\in \mathbb {N}\times \mathbb {N}$
, we have the jumping formula for the deformed Bott–Chern cohomology:
and the jumping formula for the deformed Aeppli cohomology:
Proof First, we know that
$$\begin{align*}H_{BC\phi(t)}^{p,q}(X)\cong\frac{\ker({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\cap\ker d_{\phi(t)} \cap A^{p,q}(X)}{\ker({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\cap{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)} \cap A^{p,q}(X)}. \end{align*}$$
It follows from this, (4.3) and Proposition 3.4 that
$$ \begin{align*} \dim H_{BC\phi(t)}^{p,q}(X)&=\dim H_{BC}^{p,q}(X)-v^{p,q}_t-\dim\ker({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}\cap{ \mathrm{im}\,}{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)} \cap A^{p,q}(X)\\ &=\dim H_{BC}^{p,q}(X)-v^{p,q}_t-w^{p,q}_t. \end{align*} $$
This is (4.5). For (4.6), since
and
$H_{BC\phi (t)}^{p,q}(X)\cong H_{A\phi (t)}^{n-p,n-q}(X)$
by Corollary 2.2, it follows from (4.5) that for each
$(p,q)\in \mathbb {N}\times \mathbb {N}$
,
$$ \begin{align*} \dim H_{A}^{n-p,n-q}(X)&=\dim H_{A}^{n-q,n-p}(X)=\dim H_{BC}^{p,q}(X)\\ &=\dim H_{BC\phi(t)}^{p,q}(X)+v^{p,q}_t+w^{p-1,q-1}_t\\ &=\dim H_{A\phi(t)}^{n-p,n-q}(X)+v^{p,q}_t+w^{p-1,q-1}_t. \end{align*} $$
Equation (4.6) follows from this by replacing
$p, q$
with
$n-p, n-q$
, respectively.
Note that since the Aeppli deformation of
$(n,q)$
or
$(p,n)$
-forms is always canonically unobstructed, we have
$w^{n,q}_t=w^{p,n}_t=0$
for any
$t\in B$
.
The jumping formulas provide us a useful criterion to determine when the dimension of these deformed cohomology remains constant under deformation of complex structures. In fact, set
$$ \begin{align*} h_{BC\phi(t)}^{p,q}&=\dim H_{BC\phi(t)}^{p,q}(X),\quad h_{BC}^{p,q}=\dim H_{BC}^{p,q}(X),\\ h_{A\phi(t)}^{p,q}&=\dim H_{A\phi(t)}^{p,q}(X),\quad h_{A}^{p,q}=\dim H_{A}^{p,q}(X), \end{align*} $$
we have the following corollary.
Corollary 4.3 In the situation of Theorem 4.2.
-
(1) The deformed Bott–Chern number
$h_{BC\phi (t)}^{p,q}$
is independent of
$t\in B$
if and only if the Bott–Chern deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms and the Aeppli deformations of
$(p-1,q-1)$
-forms are canonically unobstructed. -
(2) The deformed Aeppli number
$h_{A\phi (t)}^{p,q}$
is independent of
$t\in B$
if and only if the Bott–Chern deformations of
$(n-p,n-q)$
-forms and the Aeppli deformations of
$(n-p-1,n-q-1)$
-forms are canonically unobstructed.
4.3 Semi-continuous property under the analytic Zariski topology
Proposition 4.4 For each
$(p,q)\in \mathbb {N}\times \mathbb {N}$
,
$v^{p,q}_t$
and
$w^{p,q}_t$
defined in Theorem 4.2 are lower semi-continuous functions of t under the analytic Zariski topology.
Proof The case for
$v^{p,q}_t$
is already known, see [Reference XiaXia21, Remark 4.9]. So, we only need prove this for
$w^{p,q}_t$
. Indeed, since
$W_{t}^{p,q}$
is isomorphic to
$\ker d^{*}\cap \ker { \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)} \cap A^{p,q}(X)$
, we have
On the other hand, assume
$\{e_1,\ldots , e_m\}$
is an orthonormal basis of
$\mathcal {H}_{A}^{p+1,q+1}(X)$
and
$V=\mathcal {H}_{A}^{p,q}(X)$
. Then it follows from Proposition 2.4 that for any
$k\in { \mathbb {N} }$
$$ \begin{align*} W_{t}^{p,q}& = \{\sigma_0\in \mathcal{H}_{A}^{p,q}(X) \mid { \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }_{\phi(t)}\sigma(t)=0\}\\ &=\{\sigma_0\in \mathcal{H}_{A}^{p,q}(X) \mid \mathcal{H}_{BC}\Big({ \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t)\Big)=0\}\\ &=\{\sigma_0\in \mathcal{H}_{A}^{p,q}(X) \mid \langle { \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma(t), e_i\rangle_{L^2}=0,~1\leq i\leq m\}\\ &=\Big\{\sum_{l=1}^N a_l\sigma_0^l\in \mathcal{H}_{A}^{p,q}(X) \mid \sum_{l=1}^N a_l\langle { \partial } i_{\phi(t)}{ \partial }\sigma^l(t), e_i\rangle_{L^2}=0,~1\leq i\leq m\Big\}, \end{align*} $$
where
$\{\sigma _0^l\}_{l=1}^N$
is a basis of
$\mathcal {H}_{A}^{p,q}(X)$
and
$\sigma (t)=\sum _{k} \sigma _k$
is the canonical deformation of
$\sigma _0$
with
$\sigma _k=G_{A}({ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }})^{*}\sum _{i+j=k} { \partial } i_{\phi _j} { \partial }\sigma _i,~\forall k>0$
. Similarly, each
$\sigma ^l(t)$
is the canonical deformation of
$\sigma _0^l$
. As a result, we get
where
$u_i^l(t)=\langle { \partial } i_{\phi (t)}{ \partial }\sigma ^l(t), e_i\rangle _{L^2}$
. Because each
$u_i^l(t)$
is holomorphic in t, we see that for any
$k\in { \mathbb {N} }$
, the set
$\{t\in B\mid w^{p,q}_t< k\}$
is an analytic subset of B.
Proposition 4.5 In the situation of Theorem 4.2. For any
$(p,q)\in \mathbb {N}\times \mathbb {N}$
, the following alternating sums are upper semi-continuous functions of t under the analytic Zariski topology:
-
(1)
$\sum _{i=0}^q(-1)^{q-i}(h_{BC\phi (t)}^{p,i}+v^{p,i}_t-w^{p-1,i}_t)$
; -
(2)
$\sum _{i=0}^q(-1)^{q-i}(h_{A\phi (t)}^{p,i}+v^{n-p,n-i}_t-w^{n-p-1,n-i}_t)$
.
Proof We will only give the proof of
$(1)$
since
$(2)$
can be shown by the exactly the same method. For
$(1)$
, by applying the jumping formula (4.5), we get
$$ \begin{align*} \begin{aligned} h_{BC}^{p,q}&=(h_{BC\phi(t)}^{p,q}+v^{p,q}_t-w^{p-1,q}_t)+w^{p-1,q}_t+w^{p-1,q-1}_t,\\ -h_{BC}^{p,q-1}&=-(h_{BC\phi(t)}^{p,q-1}+v^{p,q-1}_t-w^{p-1,q-1}_t)-w^{p-1,q-1}_t-w^{p-1,q-2}_t,\\ &\quad \vdots\\ (-1)^q h_{BC}^{p,0}&=(-1)^q(h_{BC\phi(t)}^{p,0}+v^{p,0}_t-w^{p-1,0}_t)+(-1)^qw^{p-1,0}_t.\\ \end{aligned} \end{align*} $$
Summing all these up, we have
$$\begin{align*}\sum_{i=0}^q(-1)^{q-i} h_{BC}^{p,i}-w^{p-1,q}_t=\sum_{i=0}^q(-1)^{q-i}(h_{BC\phi(t)}^{p,i}+v^{p,i}_t-w^{p-1,i}_t). \end{align*}$$
The conclusion then follows since by Proposition 4.4 we know
$w^{p-1,q}_t$
is a lower semi-continuous functions of t under the analytic Zariski topology.
Remark 4.6 Similarly, we can show
$\sum _{i=0}^q(-1)^{q-i}(h_{BC\phi (t)}^{p,i}-v^{p,i-1}_t+w^{p-1,i-1}_t)$
and
$\sum _{i=0}^q(-1)^{q-i}(h_{A\phi (t)}^{p,i}-v^{n-p,n-i+1}_t+w^{n-p-1,n-i-1}_t)$
is upper semi-continuous.
4.4 Remarks on canonical Dolbeault deformations
We end this section with some discussions about canonical Dolbeault deformations.
Let E be a holomorphic tensor bundle on X and the
$E_t$
the corresponding tensor bundle on X. It is proved [Reference XiaXia22, Theorem 5.10] by the second author that
where
$v^{q}_t:=\dim H^{q}(X,E)-\dim \ker { \bar {\partial } }_{\phi (t)}\cap \ker { \bar {\partial } }^{*}\cap A^{0,q}(X,E) \geq 0$
. By using similar arguments as in the proof of Proposition 4.5, it follows from (4.7) that
$$ \begin{align} v^{q}_t=\sum_{i=0}^{q}(-1)^{q-i}\dim H^{i}(X,E)-\sum_{i=0}^{q}(-1)^{q-i}\dim H^{i}(X_t,E_t). \end{align} $$
Since the Dolbeault deformations of E-valued
$(0,q)$
-forms are canonically unobstructed iff
$v^{q}_t=0$
for any
$t\in B$
, we conclude that for Dolbeault deformations of E-valued
$(0,q)$
-forms,
$$\begin{align*}\text{canonically unobstructedness}\Longleftrightarrow\sum_{i=0}^{q}(-1)^{q-i}\dim H^{i}(X_t,E_t)~\text{is independent of}~t. \end{align*}$$
In particular, we get the following corollary.
Corollary 4.7 Given a Hermitian metric h on X, assume the deformations of E-valued
$(0,q)$
-forms is canonically unobstructed with respect to h. Then the deformations of E-valued
$(0,q)$
-forms is also canonically unobstructed with respect to any other Hermitian metrics on X.
As a result, the notion of canonically unobstructedness (at least for Dolbeault deformations) is independent of the choices of Hermitian metrics.
On the other hand, we see that
$\sum _{i=0}^{q}(-1)^{q-i}\dim H^{i}(X_t,E_t)$
is upper semicontinuous (under the analytic Zariski topology) since
$v^{q}_t$
is lower semi-continuous. This is in fact a special case of a result due to Flenner [Reference FlennerFle81] where
$\{E_t\}_{t\in B}$
may be replaced by a coherent sheaf on the total space
$\mathcal {X}$
, see also [Reference Bertin, Demailly, Illusie and PetersBDIP02, Theorem 5.10].
5 Unobstructed Bott–Chern/Aeppli deformations
In this section, we study when the Bott–Chern/Aeppli deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms are (canonically) unobstructed.
Let
$\pi : (\mathcal {X}, X)\to (B,0)$
be a complex analytic family with Beltrami differentials
$\phi (t)$
. Write
$\phi (t)=\sum _j\phi _j$
, then the Maurer–Cartan equation
${ \bar {\partial } }\phi (t)=\frac {1}{2}[\phi (t),\phi (t)],~t\in B$
implies
$$ \begin{align} { \bar{\partial} }\phi_k=\frac{1}{2}\sum_{j=1}^k[\phi_j,\phi_{k-j}],\quad k\geq 1. \end{align} $$
It follows from this and Cartan formulas (c.f. [Reference Liu, Rao and YangLRY15, Reference XiaXia19, Reference XiaXia22, Reference Bandiera and ManettiBM18, Reference Fiorenza and ManettiFM09, Reference Fiorenza and ManettiFM06, Reference ClemensCle05]) that
$$ \begin{align*} i_{\phi_j}\bar{\partial} &=\bar{\partial}i_{\phi_j}-i_{\bar{\partial}\phi_j}\\ &=\bar{\partial}i_{\phi_j}-\frac{1}{2}\sum_{l=1}^{j}(\mathcal{L}_{\phi_l}^{1,0}i_{\phi_{j-l}}-i_{\phi_{j-l}}\mathcal{L}_{\phi_l}^{1,0})\\ &=\bar{\partial}i_{\phi_j}-\frac{1}{2}\sum_{l=1}^{j}(i_{\phi_l}\partial i_{\phi_{j-l}}-\partial i_{\phi_l}i_{\phi_{j-l}}-i_{\phi_{j-l}}i_{\phi_l}\partial +i_{\phi_{j-l}}\partial i_{\phi_l}) \end{align*} $$
which implies
$$ \begin{align} i_{\phi_j}{ \bar{\partial} }={ \bar{\partial} } i_{\phi_j}-\sum_{l=1}^{j}i_{\phi_l}{ \partial } i_{\phi_{j-l}}+\frac{1}{2}\sum_{l=1}^{j}({ \partial } i_{\phi_l}i_{\phi_{j-l}}+i_{\phi_{j-l}}i_{\phi_l}{ \partial }). \end{align} $$
Theorem 5.1 Let
$\pi : (\mathcal {X}, X)\to (B,0)$
be a complex analytic family with Beltrami differentials
$\phi (t)$
. Suppose X is equipped with a fixed Hermitian metric.
-
(1) Assume
${ \partial }_{A,{ \bar {\partial } }(\ker { \partial })}^{p-1,q+1}=0$
. Then the Bott–Chern deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms are canonically unobstructed. -
(2) Assume
${ \partial }_{A,BC}^{p,q+1}=0$
. Then the Aeppli deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms are canonically unobstructed. -
(3) Assume
${ \partial }_{A,{ \bar {\partial } }(\ker { \partial })}^{p-1,q+1}=0$
and
${ \partial }_{A,BC}^{p-1,q}=0$
. Then the deformed Bott–Chern number
$h_{BC\phi (t)}^{p,q}$
is independent of
$t\in B$
. -
(4) Assume
${ \partial }_{A,{ \bar {\partial } }(\ker { \partial })}^{n-p-1,n-q+1}=0$
and
${ \partial }_{A,BC}^{n-p-1,n-q}=0$
. Then the deformed Aeppli number
$h_{A\phi (t)}^{p,q}$
is independent of
$t\in B$
.
Proof
$(1)$
It is enough to show the following system of equations
$$ \begin{align} \left\{\!\!\!\begin{array}{ll} { \bar{\partial} }\sigma_k= \sum_{j=1}^{k}\mathcal{L}_{\phi_j}^{1,0}\sigma_{k-j} , &\quad k\geq 1 \\ { \partial }\sigma_k=0, &\quad k\geq 1\\ \end{array} \right. \end{align} $$
can be solved inductively for any given
$\sigma _0\in \ker d\cap A^{p,q}(X)$
. In fact, assume
$\sigma _1, \ldots , \sigma _{N}\in A^{p,q}(X)$
are solutions of (5.3) for
$k\leq N$
. We need to solve
$$\begin{align*}{ \bar{\partial} }\sigma_{N+1}= \sum_{j=1}^{N+1}\mathcal{L}_{\phi_j}^{1,0}\sigma_{N+1-j}=-\sum_{j=1}^{N+1}{ \partial } i_{\phi_j}\sigma_{N+1-j} \end{align*}$$
for
$\sigma _{N+1}\in \ker { \partial }\cap A^{p,q}(X)$
. For this purpose, we observe that by using (5.2) and the induction assumption, there holds
$$ \begin{align*} &{ \bar{\partial} }(\sum_j i_{\phi_j}\sigma_{N+1-j} )\\ &=\sum_{j,l} i_{\phi_j}\mathcal{L}_{\phi_l}^{1,0}\sigma_{N+1-j-l}+\sum_{j,l}i_{\phi_l}{ \partial } i_{\phi_{j-l}}\sigma_{N+1-j}-\frac{1}{2}\sum_{j,l}({ \partial } i_{\phi_l}i_{\phi_{j-l}}+i_{\phi_{j-l}}i_{\phi_l}{ \partial })\sigma_{N+1-j}\\ &=-\frac{1}{2}\sum_{j,l}{ \partial } i_{\phi_l}i_{\phi_{j-l}}\sigma_{N+1-j}+ \frac{1}{2}\sum_{j,l} i_{\phi_j}i_{\phi_{l}}{ \partial }\sigma_{N+1-j-l}\\ &=-\frac{1}{2}\sum_{j,l}{ \partial } i_{\phi_l}i_{\phi_{j-l}}\sigma_{N+1-j}. \end{align*} $$
As a result,
${ \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }(\sum _j i_{\phi _j}\sigma _{N+1-j})=0$
which by using
${ \partial }_{A,{ \bar {\partial } }(\ker { \partial })}^{p-1,q+1}=0$
implies there exists
$\sigma _{N+1}\in \ker { \partial }\cap A^{p,q}(X)$
such that
$$\begin{align*}{ \bar{\partial} }\sigma_{N+1}= -\sum_{j=1}^{N+1}{ \partial } i_{\phi_j}\sigma_{N+1-j}. \end{align*}$$
$(2)$
Similarly, we want to show the following system of equations
$$ \begin{align} { \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\sigma_k= { \partial }\sum_{j=1}^{k}\mathcal{L}_{\phi_j}^{1,0}\sigma_{k-j} , \quad k\geq 1, \end{align} $$
can be solved inductively for any given
$\sigma _0\in \ker { \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }\cap A^{p,q}(X)$
. Assume
$\sigma _1, \ldots , \sigma _{N}\in A^{p,q}(X)$
are solutions of (5.4) for
$k\leq N$
. We need to solve
$$\begin{align*}{ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\sigma_{N+1}= { \partial }\sum_{j=1}^{N+1}\mathcal{L}_{\phi_j}^{1,0}\sigma_{N+1-j} \end{align*}$$
for
$\sigma _{N+1}\in A^{p,q}(X)$
. In view of the assumption
${ \partial }_{A,BC}^{p,q+1}=0$
, this can be done if
$\sum _{j=1}^{k}\mathcal {L}_{\phi _j}^{1,0}\sigma _{k-j}\in \ker { \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }$
.
Now we show
$\sum _{j=1}^{k}\mathcal {L}_{\phi _j}^{1,0}\sigma _{k-j}\in \ker { \partial }{ \bar {\partial } }$
. In fact, it follows from (5.1), the induction assumption and Cartan formulas that (c.f. the proof of [Reference XiaXia22, Theorem 3.3])
$$ \begin{align*} &{ \bar{\partial} }\sum_{j=1}^{N}\mathcal{L}_{\phi_j}^{1,0}\sigma_{N-j}\\ &=\sum_{j=1}^{N} \left( -\mathcal{L}_{\phi_j}^{1,0} { \bar{\partial} }\sigma_{N-j} + \mathcal{L}_{{ \bar{\partial} }\phi_j}^{1,0}\sigma_{N-j} \right)\\ &=\sum_{j=1}^{N} \left( -\mathcal{L}_{\phi_j}^{1,0} \sum_{i=1}^{N-j}\mathcal{L}_{\phi_i}^{1,0} \sigma_{N-j-i} + \frac{1}{2}\mathcal{L}_{ \sum_{i=1}^{j}[\phi_i, \phi_{j-i}]}^{1,0} \sigma_{N-j} \right) -\sum_{j=1}^{N}\sum_{i=1}^{N-j}\mathcal{L}_{\phi_j}^{1,0} \left({ \bar{\partial} }-\mathcal{L}_{\phi_i}^{1,0}\right) \sigma_{N-j-i}\\ &=-\sum_{j=1}^{N}\sum_{i=1}^{N-j}\mathcal{L}_{\phi_j}^{1,0} \left({ \bar{\partial} }-\mathcal{L}_{\phi_i}^{1,0}\right) \sigma_{N-j-i} =\sum_{j=1}^{N}\sum_{i=1}^{N-j}{ \partial } i_{\phi_j} \left({ \bar{\partial} }-\mathcal{L}_{\phi_i}^{1,0}\right) \sigma_{N-j-i}\in\ker{ \partial }. \end{align*} $$
Finally,
$(3)$
follows from
$(1)$
and (4.5). Equation
$(4)$
is restatement of
$(3)$
in view of (2.9).
Corollary 5.2 The Bott–Chern number
$\dim H_{BC}^{p,0}(X_t)=\dim H_{A}^{n,n-p}(X_t)$
is independent of
$t\in B$
if
${ \partial }_{A,{ \bar {\partial } }(\ker { \partial })}^{p-1,1}=0$
.
6 Two concrete examples
In this section, we present explicit computations of canonical Bott–Chern/Aeppli deformations to examine our results. We will consider the Iwasawa manifold and the Nakamura manifold. Both of them are holomorphically parallelizable, i.e., of the form
$\Gamma \setminus G$
where G is a complex Lie group and
$\Gamma \subset G$
is a cocompact lattice of maximal rank. For the Iwasawa manifold, G is nilpotent. So according to [Reference SakaneSak76], combined with [Reference AngellaAng13] or [Reference StelzigSte21, Corollary 13], the Dolbeault/Bott–Chern/Aeppli cohomology can be computed by (left) invariant forms. For the Nakamura manifold, G is not nilpotent but only solvable. In this case, we need to apply results of Angella-Kasuya [Reference Angella and KasuyaAK17a, Reference Angella and KasuyaAK17b] to compute the Bott–Chern/Aeppli cohomology.
6.1 The Iwasawa manifold
Example 6.1 Case III-(2). Let G be the matrix Lie group defined by
$$\begin{align*}G := \left\{ \left( \begin{array}{ccc} 1 & z^1 & z^3 \\ 0 & 1 & z^2 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{array} \right) \in \mathrm{GL}(3;\mathbb{C}) \mid z^1,\,z^2,\,z^3 \in\mathbb{C} \right\}\cong \mathbb{C}^3, \end{align*}$$
where the product is the one induced by matrix multiplication. This is usually called the Heisenberg group. Consider the discrete subgroup
$\Gamma $
defined by
$$\begin{align*}\Gamma := \left\{ \left( \begin{array}{ccc} 1 & \omega^1 & \omega^3 \\ 0 & 1 & \omega^2 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{array} \right) \in G \mid \omega^1,\,\omega^2,\,\omega^3 \in\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{-1}] \right\}. \end{align*}$$
The quotient
$X=\Gamma \setminus G$
is called the Iwasawa manifold. A basis of
$H^0(X,\Omega ^1)$
is given by
and a dual basis
$\theta ^1, \theta ^2, \theta ^3\in H^0(X,T_X^{1,0})$
is given by
The structure equation in terms of the basis
$\{\varphi ^1,\varphi ^2,\varphi ^3\}$
is given by
X is equipped with the Hermitian metric
$\sum _{i=1}^3\varphi ^i\otimes \bar {\varphi }^i$
. The Beltrami differential of the Kuranishi family of X is
$$\begin{align*}\phi(t) = \sum_{i=1}^3\sum_{\lambda=1}^2t_{i\lambda}\theta^i\bar{\varphi}^{\lambda} - D(t)\theta^3\bar{\varphi}^{3},~\text{with}~D(t)=t_{11}t_{22}-t_{21}t_{12}, \end{align*}$$
and the Kuranishi space of X is
where
$\epsilon>0$
is sufficiently small. Set
$$\begin{align*}\phi_1=\sum_{i=1}^3\sum_{\lambda=1}^2t_{i\lambda}\theta^i\bar{\varphi}^{\lambda},~ \phi_2 = -D(t)\theta^3\bar{\varphi}^{3}, \end{align*}$$
then by direct computations, we have
$$ \begin{align*} &\mathcal{L}_{\phi_1}^{1,0}\varphi^1 = \mathcal{L}_{\phi_1}^{1,0}\varphi^2=\mathcal{L}_{\phi_1}^{1,0}\bar{\varphi}^1=\mathcal{L}_{\phi_1}^{1,0}\bar{\varphi}^{2}=\mathcal{L}_{\phi_1}^{1,0}\bar{\varphi}^{3}=0,\\[5pt] &\mathcal{L}_{\phi_1}^{1,0}\varphi^3 = \sum_{\lambda=1}^2(t_{1\lambda}\varphi^2-t_{2\lambda}\varphi^1)\wedge\bar{\varphi}^{\lambda},~\mathcal{L}_{\phi_2}^{1,0}\varphi^i =\mathcal{L}_{\phi_2}^{1,0}\bar{\varphi}^{i}=0,~i=1,2,3. \end{align*} $$
In particular,
The Bott–Chern/Aeppli cohomology of X are easily computed by using left invariant forms. Let us first consider canonical Aeppli deformations.

In fact, in view of (6.1), for any

, we have
and thus
Similarly, there holds
$$\begin{align*}{ \partial }\sum_{j=1}^{k}\mathcal{L}_{\phi_j}^{1,0}\sigma_{k-j}=0 , \quad k\geq 1, \end{align*}$$
and
$\sigma _k= G_{A}({ \partial }\bar {{ \partial }})^{*}\sum _{i+j=k} { \partial } i_{\phi _j} { \partial }\sigma _i=0$
for any
$k\geq 1$
. Therefore, for each
$(p,q)\in \mathbb {N}\times \mathbb {N}$
the Aeppli deformations of
$(p,q)$
-forms are canonically unobstructed and
$w_t^{p,q}=0$
for any
$t\in \mathcal {B}$
.
Let us now consider canonical Bott–Chern deformations.

.
For
$(p,q)=(2,0)$
. Let
$\sigma _0 = a_{12}\varphi ^{12} +a_{13}\varphi ^{13}+a_{23}\varphi ^{23}$
, we have
is exact if and only if
${ \partial } i_{\phi _1}\sigma _0=0$
, i.e.,
$$ \begin{align} \left\{\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\! \begin{array}{rr} &t_{21}a_{23} + t_{11}a_{13} = 0, \\[5pt] &t_{22}a_{23} + t_{12}a_{13} = 0, \end{array} \right. \end{align} $$
has solutions for
$(a_{23}, a_{13})$
, and in this case the (degree
$1$
term of) canonical deformation is given by
On the other hand,
and
$\phi _k=0,~ k>2$
implies that
$\sigma _{k}= G_{BC}({ \bar {\partial } }^{*}{ \partial }{ \partial }^{*}+{ \bar {\partial } }^{*})\sum _{i+j=k} { \partial } i_{\phi _j}\sigma _i=0$
for any
$k>2$
.
Therefore, for
$V=H_{BC}^{2,0}(X)$
, we have (see (4.1))
and
$$\begin{align*}v_t^{2,0}=\dim H_{BC}^{2,0}(X)-\dim V_{BC,t}^{2,0}= \left\{ \begin{array}{rcl} 0, &(t_{11},t_{12},t_{21},t_{22}) =0 \\[5pt] 1, &(t_{11},t_{12},t_{21},t_{22}) \neq 0,D(t)=0 \\[5pt] 2, &(t_{11},t_{12},t_{21},t_{22}) \neq 0,D(t)\neq 0. \end{array} \right. \end{align*}$$
For
$(p,q)$
=(2,1). Let
$\sigma _0 = \sum a_{ij{\bar {k}}}\varphi ^{ij{\bar {k}}}\in \mathcal {H}_{BC}^{2,1} $
, we have
$$ \begin{align*} { \partial } i_{\phi_1}\sigma_0&=(t_{11}a_{13\bar{2}}-t_{12}a_{13\bar{1}}+t_{21}a_{23\bar{2}}-t_{22}a_{23\bar{1}})\varphi^{12\overline{12}}\\ &=a(t){ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\varphi^{3\bar{3}}, \end{align*} $$
where
$a(t):=-(t_{11}a_{13\bar {2}}-t_{12}a_{13\bar {1}}+t_{21}a_{23\bar {2}}-t_{22}a_{23\bar {1}})$
. In this case,
$$ \begin{align*} \sigma_{1}&=-G_{BC}({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial }{ \partial }^{*}+{ \bar{\partial} }^{*}){ \partial } i_{\phi_1}\sigma_0\\ &=-a(t)G_{BC}({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial }{ \partial }^{*}+{ \bar{\partial} }^{*}){ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} }\varphi^{3\bar{3}}\\ &=a(t)G_{BC}({ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \partial }{ \partial }^{*}{ \bar{\partial} }+{ \bar{\partial} }^{*}{ \bar{\partial} }){ \partial }\varphi^{3\bar{3}}\\ &=a(t)G_{BC}(\square_{BC}-({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*}){ \partial }\varphi^{3\bar{3}}\\ &=-a(t)G_{BC}(\square_{BC}-({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })({ \partial }{ \bar{\partial} })^{*})\varphi^{12\bar{3}}\\ &=-a(t)G_{BC}\square_{BC}\varphi^{12\bar{3}}\\ &=-a(t)(1-\mathcal{H}_{BC}^{2,1})\varphi^{12\bar{3}}\\ &=-a(t)\varphi^{12\bar{3}}. \end{align*} $$
On the other hand,
${ \partial } i_{\phi _2}\sigma _0=-\mathcal {L}_{\phi _2}^{1,0}\sigma _0=0$
and
${ \partial } i_{\phi _1}\sigma _1=-\mathcal {L}_{\phi _1}^{1,0}\sigma _1=0$
. Therefore,
and
$\phi _k=0,~ k>2$
implies that
$\sigma _{k}=0,~ k>2$
. It follows that the Bott–Chern deformations of
$(2,1)$
-forms are canonically unobstructed and
$v_t^{2,1}=0$
for any
$t\in \mathcal {B}$
.
Similarly, we can determine
$v_t^{p,q}$
for all
$(p,q)$
. It turns out there are only two cases for which
$v_t^{p,q}\neq 0$
:
$(p,q)=(2,0), (2,2)$
(see [Reference XiaXia21, Section 6] for the computations of
$v_t^{2,2}$
). As a result, we get the following table (Table 1).
$v^{\bullet ,\bullet }_t$
and
$w^{\bullet ,\bullet }_t$
for cases
$(i), (ii), and (iii).$

Note: We write
$(i), (ii), and (iii)$
for the three cases when
$(t_{11}, t_{12}, t_{21}, t_{22})=0$
,
$(t_{11}, t_{12}, t_{21}, t_{22})\neq 0$
and
$D(t)= 0$
,
$D(t)\neq 0$
, respectively.

$\varphi :{ \mathbb {C} }\to { \mathbb {C} }^2$

$$\begin{align*}\varphi(z)=\left ( \begin{matrix} e^{z} & 0\\ 0 & e^{-z}\\ \end{matrix} \right ),\quad \forall z\in{ \mathbb{C} }. \end{align*}$$
The lattice
$\Gamma \subset G$
has the following generators:
$$ \begin{align*} T_1(z)&:=(z_1+\lambda,e^{\lambda}z_2,e^{-\lambda}z_3),\quad T_2(z):=(z_1+2\pi i,z_2,z_3),\\ T_3(z)&:=(z_1,z_2+1,z_3-\mu),\quad T_4(z):=(z_1,z_2+\mu,z_3+1),\\ T_5(z)&:=(z_1,z_2+2\pi i,z_3-2\pi i\mu),\quad T_6(z):=(z_1,z_2+2\pi i\mu,z_3+2\pi i), \end{align*} $$

$\lambda =\log \frac {3+\sqrt {5}}{2}$
and
$\mu =\log \frac {\sqrt {5}-1}{2}$
