Holomorphic Log Complex
By definition of and the fact that exterior differentiation d satisfies, one has
- .
This implies that there is a complex of sheaves, known as the holomorphic log complex corresponding to the divisor D. This is a subcomplex of, where is the inclusion and is the complex of sheaves of holomorphic forms on .
Of special interest is the case where D has simple normal crossings. Then if are the smooth, irreducible components of, one has with the meeting transversely. Locally is the union of hyperplanes, with local defining equations of the form in some holomorphic coordinates. One can show that the stalk of at p satisfies
and that
- .
Some authors, e.g., use the term log complex to refer to the holomorphic log complex corresponding to a divisor with normal crossings.

Famous quotes containing the words log and/or complex:
“There was now no road further, the river being the only highway, and but half a dozen log huts, confined to its banks, to be met with for thirty miles. On either hand, and beyond, was a wholly uninhabited wilderness, stretching to Canada.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Instead of seeing society as a collection of clearly defined “interest groups,” society must be reconceptualized as a complex network of groups of interacting individuals whose membership and communication patterns are seldom confined to one such group alone.”
—Diana Crane (b. 1933)
