Related papers: The Brauer group is not a derived invariant

Bershadsky, Cecotti, Ooguri and Vafa constructed a real valued invariant for Calabi-Yau manifolds, which is called the BCOV invariant. In this paper, we extend the BCOV invariant to such pairs $(X,D)$, where $X$ is a compact K\"ahler…

First, we classify Calabi-Yau threefolds with infinite fundamental group by means of their minimal splitting coverings introduced by Beauville, and deduce that the nef cone is a rational simplicial cone and any rational nef divisor is…

A Calabi-Yau threefold is called of type K if it admits an \'etale Galois covering by the product of a K3 surface and an elliptic curve. In our previous paper, based on Oguiso-Sakurai's fundamental work, we provide the full classification…

We give a detailed and unified survey of equivariant $KK$-theory over locally compact, second countable, locally Hausdorff groupoids. We indicate precisely how the "classical" proofs relating to the Kasparov product can be used almost…

We study equivariant birationality from the perspective of derived categories. We produce examples of nonlinearizable but stably linearizable actions of finite groups on smooth cubic fourfolds.

We prove the derived equivalence of a pair of non-compact Calabi-Yau 7-folds, which are the total spaces of certain rank 2 bundles on $G_2$-Grassmannians. The proof follows that of the derived equivalence of Calabi-Yau 3-folds in…

The aim of this short survey is to trace back the ingredients going into the derived equivalence classification of Brauer graph algebras and into the proof of the fact that these algebras are closed under derived equivalence.

We investigate a notion of Azumaya algebras in the context of structured ring spectra and give a definition of Brauer groups. We investigate their Galois theoretic properties, and discuss examples of Azumaya algebras arising from Galois…

We review some recent results on the modularity of non-rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds.

In the following we describe some examples of Calabi-Yau manifolds, which arise as desingularizations of certain Siegel threefolds. The first Siegel modular variety with a Calabi-Yau model and the essentially only one up to now has been…

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…

Let $k$ be a finitely generated field of characteristic $p>0$ and $X$ a smooth and proper scheme over $k$. Recent works of Cadoret, Hui and Tamagawa show that, if $X$ satisfies the $\ell$-adic Tate conjecture for divisors for every prime…

A Calabi-Yau 4-fold of Camere-Garbagnati-Mongardi is a crepant resolution of the quotient of a hyperk\"ahler 4-fold by an antisymplectic involution. In this paper, we compare two different types of holomorphic torsion invariants; one is the…

This is a report of my talk at MFO after Cetraro this July consisting of more speculations, rather than definite results, on automorphisms of strict Calabi-Yau threefolds in the view of the question posed in my ICM report after Dinh, Sibony…

The main theorem of Galois theory states that there are no finite group-subgroup pairs with the same invariants. On the other hand, if we consider complex linear reductive groups instead of finite groups, the analogous statement is no…

Let $S$ be a scheme and let $\pi : \mathcal{G} \to S$ be a $\mathbb{G}_{m,S}$-gerbe corresponding to a torsion class $[\mathcal{G}]$ in the cohomological Brauer group $\mathrm{Br}'(S)$ of $S$. We show that the cohomological Brauer group…

In a recent paper Cohen, Liu and Yu introduce the Type $C$ Brauer algebra. We show that this algebra is an iterated inflation of hyperoctahedral groups, and that it is cellularly stratified. This gives an indexing set of the standard…

We study noncompact Calabi-Yau threefolds, their moduli spaces of vector bundles and deformation theory. We present Calabi-Yau threefolds that have infinitely many distinct deformations, constructing them explicitily, and describe the…

For varieties given by an equation N_{K/k}(\Xi)=P(t), where N_{K/k} is the norm form attached to a field extension K/k and P(t) in k[t] is a polynomial, three topics have been investigated: (1) computation of the unramified Brauer group of…

We study Kummer varieties attached to 2-coverings of abelian varieties of arbitrary dimension. Over a number field we show that the subgroup of odd order elements of the Brauer group does not obstruct the Hasse principle. Sufficient…
