We study generalized complex structures on K3 surfaces, in the sense of Hitchin. For each real parameter t between one and infinity we exhibit two families of generalized K3 surfaces, (M,cal{I}_{zeta}) and (M,cal{J}_{zeta}), parametrized by…
This is a rough write-up of my lecture at Kinosaki and two lectures at RIMS workshops in Dec 1996, on work in progress that has not yet reached any really worthwhile conclusion, but contains lots of fun calculations. History of Vafa's…
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…
In this note we observe that the categorical structure of a flop occurs for some well-known non-commutative resolutions of a nodal curve. We describe the flop-flop spherical twists, and give a geometric interpretation in terms of…
This article is based on a talk given at the Kinosaki Symposium on Algebraic Geometry in 2015, about a work in progress. We describe a polarization on a derived equivalent abelian variety by using Fourier-Mukai theory. We explicitly…
In this paper we will describe an approach to mirror symmetry for appropriate 1-dimensional DM stacks of arithmetic genus $g \leq 1$, called tcnc curves, which was developed by the author with Treumann and Zaslow in arXiv:1103.2462 . This…
For a flat morphism $\pi \colon X \to T$ between smooth quasi-projective varieties and its fiber $X_0$, we prove that spherical objects on $D^b(X)$ pushed-forward from $D^b(X_0)$ induce autoequivalences of $D^b(X_0)$ itself. Our…
For $X$ a smooth quasi-projective variety and $X^{[n]}$ its associated Hilbert scheme of $n$ points, we study two canonical Fourier--Mukai transforms $D(X)\to D(X^{[n]})$, the one along the structure sheaf and the one along the ideal sheaf…
The DK conjecture of Bondal-Orlov and Kawamata states that there should be an embedding of bounded derived categories for any $K$-inequivalence, which is proved to be true for the toroidal case. In this paper, we construct examples of…
We give a condition for an exact functor between triangulated categories to be an equivalence. Applications to Fourier-Mukai transforms are discussed. In particular, we obtain a large number of such transforms for K3 surfaces.
We examine the extent to which a smooth minimal complex projective surface X is determined by its derived category of coherent sheaves D(X). To do this we find, for each such surface X, the set of surfaces Y for which there exists a…
The Kashaev-Murakami-Murakami Volume Conjecture connects the hyperbolic volume of a knot complement to the asymptotics of certain evaluations of the colored Jones polynomials of the knot. We introduce a closely related conjecture for…
We define slope subalgebras in the shuffle algebra associated to a (doubled) quiver, thus yielding a factorization of the universal R-matrix of the double of the shuffle algebra in question. We conjecture that this factorization matches the…
Given a Hamiltonian torus action on a symplectic manifold, Teleman and Fukaya have proposed that the Fukaya category of each symplectic quotient should be equivalent to an equivariant Fukaya category of the original manifold. We lay out new…
We study the interplay between mass deformations and unoriented projections of super-conformal quiver gauge theories resulting from D3-branes at (toric) Calabi-Yau singularities. We focus on simple orbifold cases…
Let f : X -> Y be a morphism between normal complex varieties, and assume that Y is Kawamata log terminal. Given any differential form, defined on the smooth locus of Y, we construct a "pull-back form" on X. The pull-back map obtained by…
In the previous author's paper the Macdonald norm conjecture (including the famous constant term conjecture) was proved. This paper contains the proof of the remaining two (the duality and evaluation conjectures). The evaluation theorem is…
As a generalization of the Mukai conjecture, we conjecture that the Fano manifolds $X$ which satisfy the property $\rho_X(r_X-1)\geq\dim X-1$ have very special structure, where $\rho_X$ is the Picard number of $X$ and $r_X$ is the index of…
Homological mirror symmetry predicts that there is a relation between autoequivalence groups of derived categories of coherent sheaves on Calabi-Yau varieties, and the symplectic mapping class groups of symplectic manifolds. In this paper,…
We propose a new theory of (non-split) P^n-functors. These are F: A -> B for which the adjunction monad RF is a repeated extension of Id_A by powers of an autoequivalence H and three conditions are satisfied: the monad condition, the…
