We construct a resolution of stratified Mukai flops of type A, D, E_{6, I} by successively blowing up smooth subvarieties. In the case of E_{6, I}, we construct a natural functor which induces an isomorphism between the Chow groups.

For ordinary flops, the correspondence defined by the graph closure is shown to give equivalence of Chow motives and to preserve the Poincar\'e pairing. In the case of simple ordinary flops, this correspondence preserves the big quantum…

This paper is a sequel to math.AG/0203287. A generalization of the Mukai flop has been studied by E. Markman. Here we call it a stratified Mukai flop. In this paper, we observe that, for a stratified Mukai flop: $X \to \bar{X} \leftarrow…

I give three descriptions of the Mukai flop of type $E\_{6,I}$, one in terms of Jordan algebras, one in terms of projective geometry over the octonions, and one in terms of O-blow-ups. Each description shows that it is very similar to…

We reinvestigate the problem of describing the Fourier-Mukai kernel for the derived equivalence associated to a stratified Mukai flop. For the case of Grassmannians of planes we give a very simple geometric construction of the kernel, using…

We prove that there is a derived equivalence for stratified Mukai flop on G(2,4).

We show that the graded Chow rings of two birational irreducible symplectic varieties are isomorphic. This lifts a result known for the cohomology algebras to the level of Chow rings, despite the non-injectivity the cycle class map. In the…

This is the first of a sequence of papers proving the quantum invariance under ordinary flops over an arbitrary smooth base. In this first part, we determine the defect of the cup product under the canonical correspondence and show that it…

Suppose that two compact manifolds $X, X'$ are connected by a sequence of Mukai flops. In this paper, we construct a ring isomorphism between cohomology ring of $X$ and $X'$. Using the local mirror symmetry technique, we prove that the…

We give some examples of isomorphisms of moduli of sheaves induced by Fourier-Mukai functor. As applications, we give another proof on deformation type of some moduli spaces of sheaves on abelian and K3 surfaces.

We say that an exact equivalence between the derived categories of two algebraic varieties is tilting-type if it is constructed by using tilting bundles. The aim of this article is to understand the behavior of tilting-type equivalences for…

In this note, we shall prove that two smooth projective varieties of dim 2n connected by a Mukai flop have equivalent bounded derived categories. More precisely, let $\phi : X - - \to X^+$ be a Mukai flop with centers $Y \subset X$ and $Y^+…

Associated to a Mukai flop X ---> X' is on the one hand a sequence of equivalences D(X) -> D(X'), due to Kawamata and Namikawa, and on the other hand a sequence of autoequivalences of D(X), due to Huybrechts and Thomas. We work out a…

We prove that under semismall smooth flops, smooth projective varieties have (non-canonically) isomorphic Chow motives with coefficients in any noetherian local ring $\Lambda$ by comparing the pushforward of the constant intersection…

We describe the birational correspondences, induced by the Fourier-Mukai functor, between moduli spaces of semistable sheaves on elliptic surfaces with sections, using the notion of $P$-stability in the derived category. We give explicit…

This paper contains some applications of Fourier-Mukai techniques to the birational geometry of threefolds. In particular, we prove that birational Calabi-Yau threefolds have equivalent derived categories. To do this we show how flops arise…

We study the interaction between Fourier-Mukai transforms and perverse filtrations for a certain class of dualizable abelian fibrations. Multiplicativity of the perverse filtration and the "Perverse $\supset$ Chern" phenomenon for these…

The conifold is a basic example of a noncompact Calabi-Yau threefold that admits a simple flop, and in M-theory, gives rise to a 5d hypermultiplet at low energies, realized by an M2-brane wrapped on the vanishing sphere. We develop a novel…

The main propose of this paper is to show that Bridgeland's moduli space of perverse point sheaves for certain flopping contractions gives the flops, and the Fourier-Mukai transform given by the birational correspondence of the flop is an…

We prove that two Springer maps over a nilpotent orbit closure with the same degree are connected by stratified Mukai flops and the latter is obtained by extremal contractions of a natural resolution of the nilpotent orbit closure.
