We give an example of a non $\Q$-Gorenstein variety which is canonical but not klt, and whose canonical divisor has an irrational valuation. We also give an example of an irrational jumping number and we prove that there are no accumulation…
We prove a version of the classical 'generic smoothness' theorem with smooth varieties replaced by non-commutative resolutions of singular varieties. This in particular implies a non-commutative version of the Bertini theorem.
In this paper, we prove that Ruan's Cohomological Crepant Resolution Conjecture holds for the Hilbert-Chow morphisms. There are two main ideas in the proof. The first one is to use the representation theoretic approach proposed in [QW]…
Motivated by physics, we propose two conjectures regarding the cohomology ring of the crepant resolutions of orbifolds and cohomological invariants of K-equivalent manifolds.
Let X be a Gorenstein orbifold and let Y be a crepant resolution of X. We state a conjecture relating the genus-zero Gromov--Witten invariants of X to those of Y, which differs in general from the Crepant Resolution Conjectures of Ruan and…
By using the relative derived categories, we prove that if an Artin algebra $A$ has a module $T$ with ${\rm inj.dim}T<\infty$ such that $^\perp T$ is finite, then the bounded derived category $D^b(A\mbox{-}{\rm mod})$ admits a categorical…
In characteristic zero, if a quotient variety has a crepant resolution, the Euler characteristic of the crepant resolution is equal to the number of conjugacy classes of the acting group, by Batyrev's theorem. This is one of the McKay…
We give a nontechnical introduction to the problem of non-uniqueness of star products and describe a covariant resolution of this problem. Some implications (e.g., for noncommutative gravity) and further prospects are discussed.
Let a reductive group $G$ act on a smooth variety $X$ such that a good quotient $X{/\!\!/}G$ exists. We show that the derived category of a noncommutative crepant resolution (NCCR) of $X{/\!\!/} G$, obtained from a $G$-equivariant vector…
Given a brane tiling, that is, a bipartite graph on a torus, we can associate with it a singular 3-Calabi-Yau variety. In this paper we study its commutative and non-commutative crepant resolutions. We give an explicit toric description of…
Let $X$ be a projective variety with an isolated $A_2$ singularity. We study its bounded derived category and prove that there exists a crepant categorical resolution $\pi_*\colon \widetilde{\mathcal{D}} \to D^b(X)$, which is a Verdier…
In this article we develop the theory of minors of non-commutative schemes. This study is motivated by applications in the theory of non-commutative resolutions of singularities of commutative schemes. In particular, we construct a…
An immediate generalization of the classical McKay correspondence for Gorenstein quotient spaces $\Bbb{C}^{r}/G$ in dimensions $r\geq 4$ would primarily demand the existence of projective, crepant, full desingularizations. Since this is not…
Categorical resolutions of singularities are a replacement of resolution of singularities within the realm of triangulated categories. They allow the study of the derived category of a singular variety $X$ via a triangulated category that…
We state a version of the crepant resolution conjecture for total ancestor potentials for surface singularities, and reduce the conjecture to the quantum McKay correspondence conjecture of J.Bryan and A.Gholampour and a vanishing conjecture…
We study the orbifold Gromov-Witten theory of the quotient C^3/Z_3 in all genera. Our first result is a proof of the holomorphic anomaly equations in the precise form predicted by B-model physics. Our second result is an exact crepant…
Let $Y$ be a singular algebraic variety and let $\TY$ be a resolution of singularities of $Y$. Assume that the exceptional locus of $\TY$ over $Y$ is an irreducible divisor $\TZ$ in $\TY$. For every Lefschetz decomposition of $\TZ$ we…
We show that determinantal varieties defined by maximal minors of a generic matrix have a non-commutative desingularization, in that we construct a maximal Cohen-Macaulay module over such a variety whose endomorphism ring is Cohen-Macaulay…
Faber, Muller and Smith used complete sums of conic modules to construct non-commutative crepant resolutions (NCCR) of simplicial toric algebras. We link these conic modules to the Bondal-Thomsen collection of line bundles on smooth toric…
In this paper we analyze six examples of birational transformations between toric orbifolds: three crepant resolutions, two crepant partial resolutions, and a flop. We study the effect of these transformations on genus-zero Gromov-Witten…
