Our recent approach to the Finkelberg-Kazhdan-Lusztig equivalence theorem centers on the construction of a fiber functor associated with the categories in the equivalence theorem, which in turn explains the underlying algebraic and analytic…
A pair of adjoint functors $(F,G)$ is called a Frobenius pair of the second type if $G$ is a left adjoint of $\beta F\alpha$ for some category equivalences $\alpha$ and $\beta$. Frobenius ring extensions of the second kind provide examples…
We prove an analogon of the the fundamental homomorphism theorem for certain classes of exact and essentially surjective functors of Abelian categories $\mathscr{Q}:\mathcal{A} \to \mathcal{B}$. It states that $\mathscr{Q}$ is up to…
An adjoint pair of contravariant functors between abelian categories can be extended to the adjoint pair of their derived functors in the associated derived categories. We describe the reflexive complexes and interpret the achieved results…
A categorical formalism is introduced for studying various features of the symplectic geometry of Lefschetz fibrations and the algebraic geometry of Tyurin degenerations. This approach is informed by homological mirror symmetry, derived…
Let $G$ be a $\mathbb{Q}_p$-split reductive group with connected centre and Borel subgroup $B=TN$. We construct a right exact functor $D^\vee_\Delta$ from the category of smooth modulo $p^n$ representations of $B$ to the category of…
We introduce "continuous deformed preprojective algebras" attached to infinite affine Dynkin quivers of type A_{\infty}, A_{+\infty}, D_{\infty}. We define a one-parameter family of deformations of the wreath product of a symmetric group…
Suppose we are given complex manifolds $X$ and $Y$ together with substacks $\mathcal{S}$ and $\mathcal{S}'$ of modules over algebras of formal deformation $\mathcal{A}$ on $X$ and $\mathcal{A}'$ on $Y$, respectively. Suppose also we are…
We construct a functor valued invariant of oriented tangles on certain singular blocks of category O. Parabolic subcategories of these blocks categorify tensor products of various fundamental sl(k) representations. Projective functors…
We introduce a notion of homological flips and homological flops. The former includes the class of all flips between Gorenstein normal varieties; while the latter includes the class of all flops between Cohen-Macaulay normal varieties whose…
We study two classes of torsion classes which generalize functorially finite torsion classes, that is, semistable torsion classes and morphism torsion classes. Semistable torsion classes are parametrized by the elements in the real…
The aim of this paper is to construct singular equivalences between functor categories. As a special case, we show that there exists a singular equivalence arising from a cotilting module $T$, namely, the singularity category of $(^\perp…
Given a ring morphism, this paper constructs the twist functor around the induced derived restriction of scalars functor. We prove that the twist around ring morphisms is a derived autoequivalence in the setting of twists induced by…
We study the relationship between the categorical entropy of the twist and cotwist functors along a spherical functor. In particular, we prove the categorical entropy of the twist functor coincides with that of the cotwist functor if the…
Given a crepant contraction f to a singularity X, we may expect a derived symmetry of the source of f. Under easily-checked geometric assumptions, I construct such a symmetry when X is a hypersurface in a smooth ambient S, using a spherical…
We study fibrations arising from indexed categories of the following form: fix two categories $\mathcal{A},\mathcal{X}$ and a functor $F : \mathcal{A} \times \mathcal{X} \longrightarrow\mathcal{X} $, so that to each $F_A=F(A,-)$ one can…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ and let $\mathbb{F}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$. Recently, together with Bouc, we introduced the notion of functorial equivalences between blocks…
Suppose $X$ is a smooth, proper, geometrically connected curve over $\mathbb F_q$ with an $\mathbb F_q$-rational point $x_0$. For any $\mathbb F_q^{\times}$-character $\sigma$ of $\pi_1(X)$ trivial on $x_0$, we construct a functor $\mathbb…
Given a vector bundle $\mathcal E$ on a smooth projective variety $B$, the flag bundle $\mathcal F l(1,2,\mathcal E)$ admits two projective bundle structures over the Grassmann bundles $\mathcal G r(1, \mathcal E)$ and $G r(2, \mathcal E)$.…
Several well known polytopal constuctions are examined from the functorial point of view. A naive analogy between the Billera-Sturmfels fiber polytope and the abelian kernel is disproved by an infinite explicit series of polytopes. A…
