Consider a 2-Calabi--Yau triangulated category with a Bridgeland stability condition. We devise an effective procedure to reduce the phase spread of an object by applying spherical twists. Using this, we give new proofs of the following…
In a recent paper by L. A. Bokut, V. V. Chaynikov and K. P. Shum in 2007, Braid group $B_n$ is represented by Artin-Burau's relations. For such a representation, it is told that all other compositions can be checked in the same way. In this…
We establish faithfulness of braid group actions generated by twists along an ADE configuration of $2$-spherical objects in a derived category. Our major tool is the Garside structure on braid groups of type ADE. This faithfulness result…
The goal of this paper is to study the subspace of stability condition $\Sigma_{\mathcal{E}}\subset \mathrm{Stab}(X)$ associated to an exceptional collection $\mathcal{E}$ on a projective variety $X$. Following Emanuele Macr\`{i}'s…
We consider a 3-Calabi-Yau triangulated category associated to an ideal triangulation of a marked bordered surface. Using the theory of harmonic maps between Riemann surfaces, we construct a natural map from a component of the space of…
These are notes of a course given at the 'school on moduli spaces' at the Newton Institute in January 2011. The abstract theory of stability conditions (due to Bridgeland and Douglas) on abelian and triangulated categories is developed via…
The braid groups B_n can be defined as the mapping class group of the n-punctured disc. The Lawrence-Krammer representation of the braid group B_n is the induced action on a certain twisted second homology of the space of unordered pairs of…
This is a survey on two closely related subjects. First, we review the study of topological structure of `finite type' components of spaces of Bridgeland's stability conditions on triangulated categories. The key is to understand…
The present paper focuses on the study of t-stabilities on a triangulated category in the sense of Gorodentsev, Kuleshov and Rudakov. We give an equivalent description for the finest t-stability on a piecewise hereditary triangulated…
$*$-structures on quantum and braided spaces of the type defined via an R-matrix are studied. These include $q$-Minkowski and $q$-Euclidean spaces as additive braided groups. The duality between the $*$-braided groups of vectors and…
In this survey we borrow from Coskun and Huizenga an example of application of Bridgeland stability conditions to birational geometry and we rephrase it without assuming any previous knowledge about derived categories.
We give a formula of the colored Alexander invariant in terms of the homological representation of the braid groups which we call truncated Lawrence's representation. This formula generalizes the famous Burau representation formula of the…
We show that representations of the loop braid group arise from Aharonov-Bohm like effects in finite 2-group (3+1)-dimensional topological higher gauge theory. For this we introduce a minimal categorification of biracks, which we call…
We find stability conditions ([Do], [Br]) on some derived categories of differential graded modules over a graded algebra studied in [RZ], [KS]. This category arises in both derived Fukaya categories and derived categories of coherent…
Motivated by the Lawrence-Krammer-Bigelow representations of the classical braid groups, we study the homology of unordered configurations in an orientable genus-$g$ surface with one boundary component, over non-commutative local systems…
I use Bridgeland's definition of a stability condition on a triangulated category to investigate the stability of D-branes on Calabi-Yau cones given by the canonical line bundle over a del Pezzo surface. In this context, I prove the…
The derived category of coherent systems is an interesting triangulated category associated with a smooth, projective curve $C$. These categories admit Bridgeland stability conditions, as recently shown by Feyzbakhsh and Novik. Their…
The Burau representation of braid groups and knot Floer homology share a link to the Fox calculus. We make this connection explicit, with the following outcome: if $B$ is the full Burau matrix of any braid, and $A$ is any square submatrix…
We compute the stable homology of the braid group with coefficients in any Schur functor applied to the integral reduced Burau representation. This may be considered as a hyperelliptic analogue of the Mumford conjecture (Madsen--Weiss…
We consider a certain modification of the group $G^3_n$ which describes dynamics of point configurations, in particular braids, and define a representation of the modified $G^3_n$. The braid representation induced is powerful enough to…
