A polarizable mixed Hodge structure is a mathematical framework that combines aspects of both Hodge theory and algebraic geometry, allowing for the study of mixed Hodge structures that have a polarization. This means that there exists a non-degenerate bilinear form on the underlying vector space which satisfies certain conditions, linking the geometry of complex varieties to their topology through the theory of mixed Hodge structures.
