Tame derived categories and their applications in algebraic geometry, representation theory, singularity theory and mathematical physcics
Overview
The technique of derived and triangulated categories is a universal language in which a synthesis of concepts and methods of various mathematical fields is accumulated. With its help one can apply concepts and results from algebraic geometry in compact formulation and solution of complicated analytic problems, a well-known example of which is the interpretation of complexes of coherent sheaves on Calabi-Yau varieties as D-branes in homological mirror symmetry and in string theory. In the case of derived categories on elliptic curves and their degeneracies, we intend to continue with applications to Yang-Baxter equations and integrable systems.The study of coherent sheaves on projective curves of arithmetic gender one is closely related to the representation theory of certain associative algebras. Another goal of the project is to transfer the geometric intuition of coherent sheaves to the noncommutative case.Various questions of birational geometry of three-dimensional singularities, such as the existence of a crepant resolution, can be formulated in the language of maximal Cohen-Macaulay moduli. Through the concept of cluster tilt theory, a connection is established between the stable category of CM moduli over Gorenstein local rings and representations of certain tame associative algebras.The following concrete topics will be addressed in the project:
- Derived categories of degeneracies of elliptic curves.
- Vector bundles on elliptic fibers and their applications in mathematical physics
- Tame derived categories of associative algebras and their geometry
- Cohen-Macaulay moduli over curve and surface singularities
