We study the question when a category of ind-objects is abelian. Our answer allows a further generalization of the notion of weakly Tannakian categories introduced by the author. As an application we show that, under suitable conditions,…
We propose a natural definition of a category of matrix factorizations for nonaffine Landau-Ginzburg models. For any LG-model we construct a fully faithful functor from the category of matrix factorizations defined in this way to the…
Consider a Grothendieck category $\mathcal{G}$ along with a choice of generator $G$, or equivalently a generating set $\{G_i\}$. We introduce the derived category $\mathcal{D}(G)$, which kills all $G$-acyclic complexes, by putting a…
We construct a new model structure on the category of dg presheaves over a topological space $X$, obtained through the right Bousfield localization of the local projective model structure. The motivation for this construction arises from…
We show that the derived category of any singularity over a field of characteristic 0 can be embedded fully and faithfully into a smooth triangulated category which has a semiorthogonal decomposition with components equivalent to derived…
We show that the category of orbits of the bounded derived category of a hereditary category under a well-behaved autoequivalence is canonically triangulated. This answers a question by A. Buan, R. Marsh and I. Reiten which appeared in…
We construct and classify categories of D-branes in orientifolds based on Landau-Ginzburg models and their orbifolds. Consistency of the worldsheet parity action on the matrix factorizations plays the key role. This provides all the…
We study derived categories of coherent sheaves on abelian varieties. We give a criterion for the equivalence of the derived categories on two abelian varieties. We describe the autoequivalence group for the derived category of coherent…
We analyze the "geometric engineering" limit of a type II string on a suitable Calabi-Yau threefold to obtain an N=2 pure SU(2) gauge theory. The derived category picture together with Pi-stability of B-branes beautifully reproduces the…
This is the fourth (and last) prepublication version of a book on derived categories, that will be published by Cambridge University Press. The purpose of the book is to provide solid foundations for the theory of derived categories, and to…
In this paper, we introduce the cofibrant derived category of a group algebra $kG$ and study its relation to the derived category of $kG$. We also define the cofibrant singularity category of $kG$, whose triviality characterizes the…
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…
Let $(\mathcal{G},\otimes)$ be any closed symmetric monoidal Grothendieck category. We show that K-flat covers exist universally in the category of chain complexes and that the Verdier quotient of $K(\mathcal{G})$ by the K-flat complexes is…
In this thesis we study two main topics which culminate in a proof that four distinct definitions of the equivariant derived category of a smooth algebraic group $G$ acting on a variety $X$ are in fact equivalent. In the first part of this…
In this note, I define a notion of a compactly supported object in a triangulated category. I prove a number of propositions relating this to traditional notions of support and give an application to the theory of derived Morita…
We introduce and study the category of twisted modules over a triangular differential graded bocs. We show that in this category idempotents split, that it admits a natural structure of a Frobenius category, that a twisted module is…
It is proved that for projective varieties having Du Bois singularities is equivalent to the condition that the coherent cohomology groups of the structure sheaf coincide with the appropriate Hodge components of the singular cohomology…
Let $\Lambda = \left[\begin{array}{cc} A & 0 \\ M & B \end{array}\right] $ be an Artin algebra and $_BM_A$ a $B$-$A$-bimodule. We prove that there is a triangle equivalence $D_{sg}(\Lambda) \cong D_{sg}(A)\coprod D_{sg}(B)$ between the…
We discuss the structure of the derived category of coherent sheaves on cubic fourfolds of three types: Pfaffian cubics, cubics containing a plane and singular cubics, and discuss its relation to the rationality of these cubics.
Under a mild condition, the perfect derived category and the finite-dimensional derived category of a graded gentle one-cycle algebra are described as twisted root categories of certain infinite quivers of type $\mathbb{A}_\infty^\infty$.…
