Mixed Hodge structure conjecture for the Sullivan differential group of a Kähler manifold

Let MM be a simply connected compact Kähler manifold. Let GMG_M be the group in Theorem~, let DMGMD_M\to G_M be the homomorphism from the differential graded automorphism group, and let

GMAutπ(M,xo)QG_M\to \operatorname{Aut}\pi_{\bullet}(M,x_o)_{\mathbb Q}

be the natural homomorphism. Write uM{\mathfrak u}_M for the Lie algebra of the unipotent radical of MM.

Mixed Hodge structure conjecture. The coordinate ring and Lie algebra of GMG_M should have natural mixed Hodge structures such that the homomorphisms

DMGMandGMAutπ(M,xo)QD_M\to G_M\qquad\text{and}\qquad G_M\to \operatorname{Aut}\pi_{\bullet}(M,x_o)_{\mathbb Q}

are morphisms of mixed Hodge structures. Equivalently, the induced map on coordinate rings should be a morphism of mixed Hodge structures. When MM is algebraic, these structures should form admissible variations of mixed Hodge structures over the moduli space M{\mathscr M} parameterizing algebraic structures on the manifold underlying MM. The weights on uM{\mathfrak u}_M should be strictly negative.

This conjecture proposes that the algebraic groups controlling the rational homotopy automorphisms of a simply connected compact Kähler manifold carry Hodge-theoretic structures compatible with the natural homomorphisms. The algebraic case further predicts a variation over the moduli space, while the strict negativity condition reflects the expected behavior of the unipotent part.
