Abstract

Consider a Grassmannian Gr(2,V)\mathrm{Gr}(2, V) for an even-dimensional vector space VV. Its derived category of coherent sheaves has a Lefschetz exceptional collection with respect to the Pl\"ucker embedding. We consider a variety X1X_1 of pairs consisting of a degenerate 22-form on VV and a line in its kernel. Note that X1X_1 is generically a P1\mathbb{P}^1-fibration over the Pfaffian variety of degenerate 22-forms on VV. We construct an exceptional collection of coherent sheaves on X1X_1 such that the subcategory of Dcohb(X1)D^b_{\mathrm{coh}}(X_1) generated by that collection is conjecturally equivalent to the homologically projectively dual category of the Grassmannian.
