The Mixed Hodge Structure on the Fundamental Group of a Punctured Riemann Surface

Given a compact Riemann surface $\bar{X}$ of genus $g$ and a point $q$ on $\bar{X}$, we consider $X:=\bar{X}\setminus\{q\}$ with a basepoint $p\in X$. The extension of mixed Hodge structures, given by the weights -1 and -2, of the mixed Hodge structure on the fundamental group (in the sense of Hain) is studied. We show that it naturally corresponds on the one hand to the element $(2g q-2 p-K)$ in $\Pic^0(\bar{X})$, where $K$ represents the canonical divisor, and on the other hand to the respective extension of $\bar{X}$. Finally, we prove a pointed Torelli theorem for punctured Riemann surfaces.

New Period Mappings for Plane Curve Singularities

For plane curve singularities we construct a mixed Hodge structure (MHS) over the integers on the fundamental group of the Milnor fiber. The concept nearby fundamental group is introduced and we develop a theory of iterated integrals along elements of this group. We give an example for which the MHS on the nearby fundamental group detects a modulus which is invisible for the MHS on the vanishing cohomology.
