We determine the group of all Fourier-Mukai type autoequivalences of Kuznetsov components of smooth complex cubic threefolds, and provide yet another proof for the Fourier-Mukai version of categorical Torelli theorem for smooth complex…

Let $X \subset \P^5_{\C}$ be a smooth cubic fourfold.The Kuznetsov component $\sA_X$ is contained in the derived category $D^b(X)$ and the transcendental motive $t(X)$ is contained in the category of Chow motives $\sM_{rat}(\C))$. If $X$…

We prove that the Chow motives of twisted derived equivalent K3 surfaces are isomorphic, not only as Chow motives (due to Huybrechts), but also as Frobenius algebra objects. Combined with a recent result of Huybrechts, we conclude that two…

For any smooth projective moduli space $M$ of Gieseker stable sheaves on a complex projective K3 surface (or an abelian surface) S, we prove that the Chow motive $\mathfrak{h}(M)$ becomes a direct summand of a motive $\bigoplus…

We construct new examples of rational Gushel-Mukai fourfolds, giving more evidence for the analog of the Kuznetsov Conjecture for cubic fourfolds: a Gushel--Mukai fourfold is rational if and only if it admits an associated K3 surface.

We study L-equivalence in the Grothendieck ring of varieties and its interaction with categorical invariants of cubic fourfolds. Assuming a Derived Torelli-type criterion for Kuznetsov components and a mild condition on the discriminant of…

We observe that derived equivalent K3 surfaces have isomorphic Chow motives.

This note is about the Chow groups of a certain family of smooth cubic fourfolds. This family is characterized by the property that each cubic fourfold $X$ in the family has an involution such that the induced involution on the Fano variety…

We exhibit explicit examples of very general special cubic fourfolds with discriminant $d$ admitting an associated (twisted) K3 surface, which have non-isomorphic Fourier-Mukai partners. In particular, in the untwisted setting, we show that…

Let $X\subset \P^5$ be a smooth cubic fourfold. A well known conjecture asserts that $X$ is rational if and only if there an Hodge theoretically associated K3 surface $S$. The surface $S$ can be associated to $X$ in two other different…

Let $M$ denote a specific cubic fourfold that accommodates a group action by $\mathbb{Z}/3\mathbb{Z}$. Through utilization of derived Mckay correspondence, we present a new proof establishing the identification of the equivariant Kuznetsov…

In this paper, we study relations between automorphism groups of cubic fourfolds and Kuznetsov components. Firstly, we characterize automorphism groups of cubic fourfolds as subgroups of autoequivalence groups of Kuznetsov components using…

We show that cubic fourfolds with lattice of algebraic 2-cycles of rank greater than 19 have abelian and finite dimensional (in the sense of Kimura) Chow motive. This also implies Abelianity and finite dimensionality of the motive of…

In the first part of this paper we will prove the Voevodsky's nilpotence conjecture for smooth cubic fourfolds and ordinary generic Gushel-Mukai fourfolds. Then, making use of noncommutative motives, we will prove the Voevodsky's nilpotence…

We prove that if a smooth projective algebraic variety of dimension less or equal to three has a unit type integral $K$-motive, then its integral Chow motive is of Lefschetz type. As a consequence, the integral Chow motive is of Lefschetz…

We isolate a class of smooth rational cubic fourfolds X containing a plane whose associated quadric surface bundle does not have a rational section. This is equivalent to the nontriviality of the Brauer class of the even Clifford algebra…

The object of this note is the moduli spaces of cubic fourfolds (resp., Gushel-Mukai fourfolds) which contain some special rational surfaces. Under some hypotheses on the families of such surfaces, we develop a general method to show the…

Gushel-Mukai sixfolds are an important class of so-called Fano-K3 varieties. In this paper we show that they admit a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition modulo algebraic equivalence and that they have the Franchetta property. As…

We study the derived categories of coherent sheaves on Gushel-Mukai varieties. In the derived category of such a variety, we isolate a special semiorthogonal component, which is a K3 or Enriques category according to whether the dimension…

We prove that if two very general cubic fourfolds are L-equivalent then they are isomorphic, and we observe that there exist special cubic fourfolds which are L-equivalent but not isomorphic. When the cubic fourfolds are very general in…
