We show that a cyclic quotient surface singularity S can be decomposed, in a precise sense, into a number of elementary T-singularities together with a cyclic quotient surface singularity called the residue of S. A normal surface X with…
The quotient of a triangulated category modulo a subcategory was defined by Verdier. Motivated by the failure of the telescope conjecture, we introduce a new type of quotients for any triangulated category which generalizes Verdier's…
For a simple normal crossing variety $X$, we introduce the concepts of prelog Chow ring, saturated prelog Chow group, as well as their counterparts for numerical equivalence. Thinking of $X$ as the central fibre in a (strictly) semistable…
We show that toric surface singularities deform to toric surface singularities - both in equal and mixed characteristic. As an application, we establish Riemenschneiders conjecture that isolated cyclic quotient singularities of any…
We consider a class of relative $n$-Calabi--Yau dg-algebras, referred to as relative Ginzburg algebras, associated with marked surfaces equipped with a decomposition into $n$-gons ($n$-angulation). We relate their derived categories to the…
We consider the quotient of an exact or one-sided exact category $\mathcal{E}$ by a so-called percolating subcategory $\mathcal{A}$. For exact categories, such a quotient is constructed in two steps. Firstly, one localizes $\mathcal{E}$ at…
We introduce a notion of Homological Projective Duality for smooth algebraic varieties in dual projective spaces, a homological extension of the classical projective duality. If algebraic varieties $X$ and $Y$ in dual projective spaces are…
In this short paper we outline (mostly without proofs) our new approach to the derived category of sheaves of commutative DG rings. The proofs will appear in a subsequent paper. Among other things, we explain how to form the derived…
We consider the space of embeddings of finitely many circles that bound disks in non-positively curved surfaces. We index the connected components of this space with finite rooted trees and show that the connected components are classifying…
We survey some recent results concerning the so called Categorical Torelli problem. This is to say how one can reconstruct a smooth projective variety up to isomorphism, by using the homological properties of special admissible…
We give two explicit versions of the decomposition theorem of Beilinson, Bernstein and Deligne applied to the universal family of quartic surfaces of $\mathbb{P}^3$. The starting point of our investigation is the remark that the nodes of a…
We show that any pseudo-effective divisor on a normal surface decomposes uniquely into its "integral positive" part and "integral negative" part, which is an integral analog of Zariski decompositions. By using this decomposition, we give…
We prove that the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves with proper support is equivalent to the category of locally-finite, cohomological functors on the perfect derived category of a quasi-projective scheme over a field. We…
We give a complete answer for the existence of Kawamata type semiorthogonal decompositions of derived categories of nodal del Pezzo threefolds. More precisely, we show that nodal del Pezzo threefolds of degree $1\leq d \leq 4$ have no…
In this paper we study some properties of degenerations of surfaces whose general fibre is a smooth projective surface and whose central fibre is a reduced, connected surface $X \subset IP^r$, $r \geq 3$, which is assumed to be a union of…
Making use of noncommutative motives we relate exceptional collections (and more generally semi-orthogonal decompositions) to motivic decompositions. On one hand we prove that the Chow motive M(X) of every smooth proper Deligne-Mumford…
In this article we prove a derived version of the Marsden-Weinstein-Meyer symplectic reduction theorem. We model the symplectic quotient as a dg-groupoid. We then construct the reduced symplectic form inside the Bott-Shulman complex of the…
Injective resolutions of modules are key objects of homological algebra, which are used for the computation of derived functors. Semiinjective resolutions of chain complexes are more general objects, which are used for the computation of…
In this paper, we give a new constructive proof of the semi-orthogonal decomposition of the derived category of (quasi)-coherent sheaves of root stacks, through an explicit resolution of the diagonal.
We define a normal surface $X$ to be codim-2-saturated if any open embedding of $X$ into a normal surface with the complement of codimension 2 is an isomorphism. We show that any normal surface $X$ allows a codim-2-saturated model…
