Overview
The cohomology jumping loci of a space X come in two
basic flavors: the characteristic varieties (the jump loci for
cohomology with coefficients in rank 1 local systems),
and the resonance varieties (the jump loci for the homology
of the cochain complexes arising from multiplication by
degree 1 classes in the cohomology ring of X).
The interplay between these varieties leads to new obstructions
to formality and (quasi-) projectivity, and informs
on the homological finiteness properties of various spaces and groups.
