Signed Mukai diagonals and derived equivalences of fivefolds
For every Hochschild diagonal of a smooth projective complex variety, a Fourier–Mukai equivalence preserves both the ordinary Hodge-number sum and the sum signed by the parity of the antiholomorphic degree. The latter is the signature of a Hermitian form obtained from the generalized Mukai pairing. In dimension five these invariants determine and and reduce the unrestricted Hodge-number problem to two numerical parameters, one of which is the possible failure of invariance of . Albanese methods remove this structure-sheaf ambiguity when the Albanese image has dimension at least three. The general fivefold case remains open, while a theorem of Abuaf proves invariance of all Hodge numbers for fivefolds with trivial canonical bundle.
