In complex geometry, the term positive form refers to several classes of real differential forms of Hodge type (p, p).

(1,1)-forms

Real (p,p)-forms on a complex manifold M are forms which are of type (p,p) and real, that is, lie in the intersection

Λp,p(M)Λ2p(M,).

A real (1,1)-form ω is called positive if any of the following equivalent conditions hold

  1. 1ω is an imaginary part of a positive (not necessarily positive definite) Hermitian form.
  2. For some basis dz1,...dzn in the space Λ1,0M of (1,0)-forms,1ω can be written diagonally, as 1ω=iαidzidz¯i, with αi real and non-negative.
  3. For any (1,0)-tangent vector vT1,0M, 1ω(v,v¯)0
  4. For any real tangent vector vTM, ω(v,I(v))0, where I:TMTM is the complex structureTemplate:Dn operator.

Positive line bundles

In algebraic geometry, positive (1,1)-forms arise as curvature forms of ample line bundles (also known as positive line bundles). Let L be a holomorphic Hermitian line bundle on a complex manifold,

¯:LLΛ0,1(M)

its complex structure operator. Then L is equipped with a unique connection preserving the Hermitian structure and satisfying

0,1=¯.

This connection is called the Chern connection.

The curvature Θ of a Chern connection is always a purely imaginary (1,1)-form. A line bundle L is called positive if

1Θ

is a positive definite (1,1)-form. The Kodaira embedding theorem claims that a positive line bundle is ample, and conversely, any ample line bundle admits a Hermitian metric with 1Θ positive.

Positivity for (p, p)-forms

Positive (1,1)-forms on M form a convex cone. When M is a compact complex surface, dimM=2, this cone is self-dual, with respect to the Poincaré pairing

η,ζMηζ

For (p, p)-forms, where 2pdimM2, there are two different notions of positivity. A form is called strongly positive if it is a linear combination of products of positive forms, with positive real coefficients. A real (p, p)-form η on an n-dimensional complex manifold M is called weakly positive if for all strongly positive (n-p, n-p)-forms ζ with compact support, we have Mηζ0.

Weakly positive and strongly positive forms form convex cones. On compact manifolds these cones are dual with respect to the Poincaré pairing.
