The derived category of bounded complexes of coherent sheaves is one of the most important algebraic invariants of a smooth projective variety. An important approach to understand derived categories is to construct full strongly exceptional…
We describe the derived category of coherent sheaves on the minimal resolution of the Kleinian singularity associated to a finite subgroup G of SL(2). Then, we give an application to the Euler-characteristic version of the Hall algebra of…
In this paper we prove that the dimension of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth quasi-projective curve is equal to one. We also discuss dimension spectrums of these categories.
We show how derived categories build bridges across the current mathematical mainstream, linking geometric and algebraic, commutative and noncommutative, local and global banks. Arches in these bridges are pieces of semiorthogonal…
We construct $S$-linear semiorthogonal decompositions of derived categories of smooth Fano threefold fibrations $X/S$ with relative Picard rank $1$ and rational geometric fibers and discuss how the structure of components of these…
We show that the derived category of coherent sheaves on the quotient stack of the affine plane by a finite small subgroup of the general linear group is obtained from the derived category of coherent sheaves on the minimal resolution by…
We discuss Calabi-Yau and fractional Calabi-Yau semiorthogonal components of derived categories of coherent sheaves on smooth projective varieties. The main result is a general construction of a fractional Calabi-Yau category from a…
In this paper we consider cubic 4-folds containing a plane whose discriminant curve is a reduced nodal plane sextic. In particular, we describe the singular points of such cubic 4-folds and we give an estimate of the rank of the free…
We isolate a class of smooth rational cubic fourfolds X containing a plane whose associated quadric surface bundle does not have a rational section. This is equivalent to the nontriviality of the Brauer class of the even Clifford algebra…
We determine the generators of the autoequivalence group of the derived category of coherent sheaves on a bielliptic surface over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. As a consequence, we prove that any algebraic…
We consider derived categories of coherent sheaves on smooth projective varieties. We prove that any equivalence between them can be represented by an object on the product. Using this, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for…
We show that a standard conic bundle over a minimal rational surface is rational and its Jacobian splits as the direct sum of Jacobians of curves if and only if its derived category admits a semiorthogonal decomposition by exceptional…
We consider an algebraic variety X together with the choice of a subvariety Z. We show that any coherent sheaf on X can be constructed out of a coherent sheaf on the formal neighborhood of Z, a coherent sheaf on the complement of Z, and an…
Inspired by the homological mirror symmetry conjecture of Kontsevich, we construct new classes of automorphisms of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth Calabi-Yau variety.
Some classes of cubic fourfolds are birational to fibrations over $P^2$, where the fibers are rational surfaces. This is the case for cubics containing a plane (resp. an elliptic ruled surface), where the fibers are quadric surfaces (resp.…
We prove that the Fano variety of lines of a generic cubic fourfold containing a plane is isomorphic to a moduli space of twisted stable complexes on a K3 surface. On the other hand, we show that the Fano varieties are always birational to…
This elementary survey article was prepared for a talk at the 2016 Superschool on Derived Categories and D-branes. The goal is to outline an identification of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a Calabi-Yau threefold with…
We prove that the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth projective complex variety reconstructs the isomorphism classes of fibrations onto smooth projective curves of genus $g\geq 2$. Moreover, in dimension at most four,…
We extend some of the results of Bondal-Orlov on the equivalence of derived categories to the case of orbifolds by using the category of coherent orbifold sheaves.
Let $X_N$ be the second infinitesimal neighborhood of a closed point in $N$-dimensional affine space. In this note we study $D^b(coh\, X_N)$, the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on $X_N$. We show that for $N\geq 2$ the lattice…
