Hodge theory is a central area in differential geometry and algebraic geometry that studies the relationship between the topology of a manifold and its differential forms. It is particularly concerned with the decomposition of differential forms on a compact, oriented Riemannian manifold and the study of their cohomology groups. The key concepts in Hodge theory are: 1. **Differential Forms**: These are generalized functions that can be integrated over manifolds.
