On the elliptic threefold of section 12.19, closed classes can be described completely. The product of the two horizontal forms is $\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}$-exact, so every positive $\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}$-closed $(1,1)$-current has zero vertical component, and the fiberwise descent of lemma 11.22.4 identifies it with a current on the base. Closedness descends as well. The closed positive cones, the singularity envelopes and the spaces of sections selected by multiplier ideals are therefore all computed on the base surface.
Let $X$ be the compact threefold of section 12.19, and let
\[ \pi :X\longrightarrow B=\mathbb P^1\times \mathbb P^1 \]
be its elliptic fibration. Write $\sigma _1,\sigma _2$ for the Fubini–Study forms of the two factors, each of integral one, and put $\alpha =\pi ^*\sigma _1$ and $\beta =\pi ^*\sigma _2$. The product coordinates of that construction show that $\pi $ is locally a holomorphic product with fiber the elliptic curve $E$. The logarithmic ratio $t$ of that construction is defined only on the covering space, but its differentials descend to $X$. We take for $\omega $ the balanced metric $\omega =\alpha +\beta +D$, where $D=\mathrm{d}t\wedge \mathrm d^{\mathrm c}t$. By proposition 12.19.18, it satisfies
\[ \alpha \wedge \beta =\tfrac 12\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}\omega . \]
The arguments below use this identity, not the vanishing of the lower Monge–Ampère mass.
Lemma 10.19.1.464DA68EB4DA Every positive $\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}$-closed real $(1,1)$-current $T$ on $X$ has the form
\[ T=\pi ^*S \]
for a unique positive $\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}$-closed $(1,1)$-current $S$ on $B$. Moreover, $T$ is closed if and only if $S$ is closed. Here $\pi ^*S$ is the pullback of currents under the holomorphic submersion $\pi $.
Proof.
The measure $T\wedge \alpha \wedge \beta $ is positive. Since $\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}T=0$, Stokes' theorem for currents gives
\[ \int _ XT\wedge \alpha \wedge \beta =\tfrac 12\int _ X\omega \wedge \mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}T=0, \]
so this measure vanishes. All products in this identity pair a current with smooth forms. Now apply lemma 11.22.4 to $\pi $, with the base Hermitian form $\eta =\sigma _1+\sigma _2$. Since $\eta ^2=2\sigma _1\wedge \sigma _2$, we have $T\wedge \pi ^*\eta ^2=0$, and since the fiber is a compact connected elliptic curve, the lemma gives the unique positive $\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}$-closed current $S$. The same lemma shows that $S$ is closed when $T$ is; conversely, pullback commutes with $\mathrm{d}$.
$\square$
This description concerns $(1,1)$-currents. It does not conflict with the Gauduchon forms of lemma 12.19.13: those have bidegree $(2,2)$ and satisfy $\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}\Gamma _ j=0$, with bounded degree and divergent volume of their positive roots, and they belong to a different cone of currents.
Proposition 10.19.2.24BCA82D5034 Pullback
\[ \pi ^*:H^{1,1}_{\mathrm{BC}}(B,\mathbb R) \longrightarrow H^{1,1}_{\mathrm{BC}}(X,\mathbb R) \]
is injective. The pseudoeffective and nef cones on $X$ coincide and are
\[ \operatorname {Psef}(X)=\operatorname {Nef}(X) =\{ a\{ \alpha \} _{\mathrm{BC}}+b\{ \beta \} _{\mathrm{BC}}: a,b\geq 0\} . \]
For the trace functional of the Gauduchon metric $\omega $, the slice of this cone at trace one is the segment $a+b=(8\pi )^{-1}$. Every class in the cone has a smooth semipositive representative, and none is big. The real form $\beta -\alpha $ is de Rham exact but represents a nonzero Bott–Chern class.
Proof.
Suppose a smooth closed real form $\tau $ on $B$ satisfies $\pi ^*\tau =\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}u$ with $u$ smooth on $X$. The restriction of $u$ to each compact connected elliptic fiber is harmonic, hence constant, and local holomorphic sections show that $u=v\circ \pi $ for a smooth function $v$ on $B$. Thus $\pi ^*(\tau -\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}v)=0$, which implies $\tau =\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}v$ because $\pi $ is a submersion. This proves injectivity.
The usual cohomology computation for $\mathbb P^1\times \mathbb P^1$, together with the $\partial \bar\partial $-lemma on this Kähler surface, gives
\[ H^{1,1}_{\mathrm{BC}}(B,\mathbb R) =\mathbb R\{ \sigma _1\} \oplus \mathbb R\{ \sigma _2\} , \qquad \int _ B\sigma _1\wedge \sigma _2=1, \qquad \sigma _1^2=\sigma _2^2=0. \]
If $S$ is a positive closed current on $B$, the two coefficients of its class are
\[ a=\int _ BS\wedge \sigma _2\geq 0, \qquad b=\int _ BS\wedge \sigma _1\geq 0. \]
By lemma 20.4.10 and lemma 10.19.1, every pseudoeffective class on $X$ is the pullback of the class of such a current, and it therefore lies in the cone of the statement. Conversely, every class in that cone has the smooth semipositive representative $a\alpha +b\beta $ and is therefore nef. A nef class is pseudoeffective by the compactness argument following proposition 10.11.2. This proves the equality of the cones; the whole Bott–Chern group of $X$ is not needed.
Since $\omega ^2=2\alpha \wedge \beta +2(\alpha +\beta )\wedge D$ and $\int _ E D=4\pi $ on each fiber, integration along the fibers gives
\[ \int _ X(a\alpha +b\beta )\wedge \omega ^2=8\pi (a+b). \]
This proves the assertion about the slice. By proposition 12.19.22, $X$ carries no closed Kähler current, so none of these classes is big. Finally, the one-form $\mathrm d^{\mathrm c}t$ is globally defined on $X$ and satisfies
\[ \mathrm{d}(\mathrm d^{\mathrm c}t)=\beta -\alpha . \]
The class of $\sigma _2-\sigma _1$ on $B$ is nonzero, and injectivity makes its pullback nonzero in Bott–Chern cohomology. Thus de Rham exactness does not imply $\mathrm{dd}^{\mathrm{c}}$-exactness in this example.
$\square$
Consequently, every pseudoeffective class on this threefold is nef and has empty non-nef locus, whereas its non-Kähler locus is all of $X$, since no class is big. All its closed positive representatives come from the two-dimensional base; in particular $(a\alpha +b\beta )^3=0$.
