In this first of a series of articles on standard extension algebras we study standard perverse sheaves on varieties with $\mathbb{G}_m$-actions. Based on Braden's hyperbolic localisation, we describe their extension algebra geometrically…
Let $f:X \rightarrow \Delta $ be a one-parameter semistable degeneration of $m$-dimensional compact complex manifolds. Assume that each component of the central fiber $X_0$ is K\"ahler. Then, we provide a criterion for a general fiber to…
A basic problem in the geometry of degenerating period maps is to determine whether their completed images admit an intrinsic algebraic description. For polarized variations of Hodge structure over smooth quasi-projective surfaces, Deng and…
We construct a 2-category of differential graded schemes. The local affine models in this theory are differential graded algebras, which are graded commutative with unit over a field of characteristic zero, are concentrated in non-positive…
We investigate the relation between the Hodge theory of a smooth subcanonical $n$-dimensional projective variety $X$ and the deformation theory of the affine cone $A_X$ over $X$. We start by identifying $H^{n-1,1}_{\mathrm{prim}}(X)$ as a…
We start the general structure theory of not necessarily semisimple finite tensor categories, generalizing the results in the semisimple case (i.e. for fusion categories), obtained recently in our joint work with D.Nikshych. In particular,…
Generalising a seminal result of Epstein and Penner for cusped hyperbolic manifolds, Cooper and Long showed that each decorated strictly convex projective cusped manifold has a canonical cell decomposition. Penner used the former result to…
We study perverse-Hodge complexes for Lagrangian fibrations on holomorphic symplectic varieties. We prove the symplectic Hard Lefschetz type theorem and the symmetry of perverse-Hodge complexes when the symplectic variety admits symplectic…
We explore 6-dimensional compactifications of F-theory exhibiting (2,0) superconformal theories coupled to gravity that include discretely charged superconformal matter. Beginning with F-theory geometries with Abelian gauge fields and…
We present a categorification of four mutation finite cluster algebras by the cluster category of the category of coherent sheaves over a weighted projective line of tubular weight type. Each of these cluster algebras which we call tubular…
F-theory compactifications on appropriate local elliptic Calabi-Yau manifolds engineer six dimensional superconformal field theories and their mass deformations. The partition function $Z_{top}$ of the refined topological string on these…
In this thesis, we develop the theory of bifibrations of polycategories. We start by studying how to express certain categorical structures as universal properties by generalising the shape of morphism. We call this phenomenon…
We prove two gluing theorems for special Lagrangian (SL) conifolds in complex space C^m. Conifolds are a key ingredient in the compactification problem for moduli spaces of compact SLs in Calabi-Yau manifolds. In particular, our theorems…
A differential algebra of finite type over a field k is a filtered algebra A, such that the associated graded algebra is finite over its center, and the center is a finitely generated k-algebra. The prototypical example is the algebra of…
In this note we demonstrate some unexpected properties that simple gluings of the simplest derived categories may have. We consider two special cases: the first is an augmented curve, i.e., the gluing of the derived categories of a point…
We describe explicitly the possible degenerations of a class of double Kodaira fibrations in the moduli space of stable surfaces. Using deformation theory we also show that under some assumptions we get a connected component of the moduli…
We will announce two theorems. The first theorem will classify all topological types of degenerate fibers appearing in one-parameter families of Riemann surfaces, in terms of ``pseudoperiodic'' surface homeomorphisms. The second theorem…
In this work we review a systematic, algorithmic construction of dual heterotic/F-theory geometries corresponding to 4-dimensional, N = 1 supersymmetric compactifications. We look in detail at a class of well-defined Calabi-Yau fourfolds…
Every compact K\"ahler manifold with negative first Chern class admits a unique metric $g$ such that $\text{Ric}(g) = -g$. Understanding how families of these metrics degenerate gives insight into their geometry and is important for…
Continuing the study of perverse sheaves on the nilpotent cone of a $\mathbb{Z}/m$-graded Lie algebra initiated by Lusztig--Yun, we study in this work the parabolic induction and introduce the notion of supercuspidal sheaves on the…
