We develop the notion of indscheme in the context of derived algebraic geometry, and study the categories of quasi-coherent sheaves and ind-coherent sheaves on indschemes. The main results concern the relation between classical and derived…
We disprove two (unpublished) conjectures of Kontsevich which state generalized versions of categorical Hodge-to-de Rham degeneration for smooth and for proper DG categories (but not smooth and proper, in which case degeneration is proved…
We discuss derived categories of coherent sheaves on algebraic varieties. We focus on the case of non-singular Calabi-Yau varieties and consider two unsolved problems: proving that birational varieties have equivalent derived categories,…
We describe the heart of the canonical $t$-structure on the perfect derived category of a strictly positive graded algebra as the module category over the quadratic dual. Applying this result we obtain examples showing new phenomena on…
We define a simplicial category called the category of derived manifolds. It contains the category of smooth manifolds as a full discrete subcategory, and it is closed under taking arbitrary intersections in a manifold. A derived manifold…
Let G be a complex algebraic semi-simple adjoint group and X a smooth complete symmetric G-variety. Let L_i be the irreducible G-equivariant intersection cohomology complexes on X, and L the direct sum of the L_i. Let E= Ext(L,L) be the…
Given a smooth morphism of schemes $X\rightarrow T$, denote by $\mathcal D_{X/T}^{\mathsf{cr}}$ the sheaf of rings of fiberwise crystalline differential operators on $X$ relative to $T$ and by $\Omega^\bullet_{X/T}$ the de Rham sheaf of…
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…
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…
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…
The birational classification of varieties inevitably leads to the study of singularities. The types of singularities that occur in this context have been studied by Mori, Koll\'ar, Reid, and others, beginning in the 1980s with the…
We describe the constructible derived category of sheaves on the $n$-sphere, stratified in a point and its complement, as a dg module category of a formal dg algebra. We prove formality by exploring two different methods: As a combinatorial…
Given a noncommutative partial resolution $A=\mathrm{End}_R(R\oplus M)$ of a Gorenstein singularity $R$, we show that the relative singularity category $\Delta_R(A)$ of Kalck-Yang is controlled by a certain connective dga…
In this note we consider a quotient \pi: X-> X/G, with G a finite group and X a smooth projective scheme such that X/G is smooth. We compare the equivariant derived category D^G(X) and the derived category of the quotient D(X/G) by giving…
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 that every sheaf on the site of smooth manifolds with values in a stable (infinity,1)-category (like spectra or chain complexes) gives rise to a differential cohomology diagram and a homotopy formula, which are common features of…
We construct a twist-closed enhancement of the category ${\mathcal D}^b_{\rm coh}(X)$, the bounded derived category of complexes of ${\mathcal O}_X$-modules with coherent cohomology, by means of the DG-category of…
In this paper we discuss different properties of noncommutative schemes over a field. We define a noncommutative scheme as a differential graded category of a special type. We study regularity, smoothness and properness for noncommutative…
We study generic objects in triangulated categories and characterize the finite dimensional algebras $A$ such that the derived categories $D(\Mod A)$ are generically trivial. This is an analogue of a result of Crawley-Boevey for module…
In this paper we study derived categories of nodal singularities. We show that for all nodal singularities there is a categorical resolution whose kernel is generated by a $2$ or $3$-spherical object, depending on the dimension. We apply…
