Abstract:
The cohomology of the local system on the complement of hyperplanes has a Hodge structure as the $α$-invariant cohomology of a Kummer covering ramified along their hyperplanes for a generic character $α$. In this paper we study the case of arrangements of hyperplanes in the three dimensional complex projective space. We construct a resolution for an arrangement of hyperplanes and compute its Chow group. By computing the first Chern class of logarithmic 1-forms, we can obtain the Euler characteristic and the Hodge numbers of cohomology of local systems using the intersection set of the arrangement of hyperplanes and binomial coefficients.
