AbstractIn this paper we prove a useful formula for the graded commutator of the Hodge codifferential with the left wedge multiplication by a fixed p-form acting on the de Rham algebra of a Riemannian manifold. Our formula generalizes a formula stated by Samuel I. Goldberg for the case of 1-forms. As first examples of application we obtain new identities on locally conformally Kähler manifolds and quasi-Sasakian manifolds. Moreover, we prove that under suitable conditions a certain subalgebra of differential forms in a compact manifold is quasi-isomorphic as a CDGA to the full de Rham algebra.

This chapter provides an introduction to the basic results on the topology of compact Kähler manifolds that underlie and motivate Hodge theory. This chapter consists of five sections which correspond, roughly, to the five lectures in the course given during the Summer School at the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP). The five topics under discussion are: complex manifolds; differential forms on complex manifolds; symplectic, Hermitian, and Kähler structures; harmonic forms; and the cohomology of compact Kähler manifolds. There are also two appendices. The first collects some results on the linear algebra of complex vector spaces, Hodge structures, nilpotent linear transformations, and representations of sl(2,ℂ) and serves as an introduction to many other chapters in this volume. The second contains a new proof of the Kähler identities by reduction to the symplectic case.
