The 3-fold cyclic quotient singularity denoted $\tfrac{1}{7}(1,2,4)$ admits a crepant resolution X with three exceptional Hirzebruch surfaces intersecting pairwise along curves. We show that the derived category D(X) carries a faithful…
This paper gives a construction of braid group actions on the derived category of coherent sheaves on a variety $X$. The motivation for this is Kontsevich's homological mirror conjecture, together with the occurrence of certain braid group…
We prove that the action of a generalized braid group on an enhanced triangulated categories, generated by spherical twist functors along an ADE-configuration of $\omega$-spherical objects, is faithful for any integer $\omega \neq 1$.
We introduce the idea of a geometric categorical Lie algebra action on derived categories of coherent sheaves. The main result is that such an action induces an action of the braid group associated to the Lie algebra. The same proof shows…
Using a quiver algebra of a cyclic quiver, we construct a faithful categorical action of the extended braid group of affine type A on its bounded homotopy category of finitely generated projective modules. The algebra is trigraded and we…
For a cyclic group $G$ acting on a smooth variety $X$ with only one character occurring in the $G$-equivariant decomposition of the normal bundle of the fixed point locus, we study the derived categories of the orbifold $[X/G]$ and the…
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…
We show that if $X$ is a smooth quasi-projective $3$-fold admitting a flopping contraction, then the fundamental group of an associated simplicial hyperplane arrangement acts faithfully on the derived category of $X$. The main technical…
Given an action of a finite group on a triangulated category, we investigate under which conditions one can construct a linearised triangulated category using DG-enhancements. In particular, if the group is a finite group of automorphisms…
We unify and generalize several approaches to constructing braid group representations from finite groups, using iterated twisted tensor products. Our results hint at a relationship between the braidings on the $G$-gaugings of a pointed…
We explicitly describe the derived Picard groups of symmetric representation-finite algebras of type $D$. In particular, we prove that these groups are generated by spherical twists along collections of $0$-spherical objects, the shift and…
We prove that any `finite-type' component of a stability space of a triangulated category is contractible. The motivating example of such a component is the stability space of the Calabi--Yau-$N$ category $\mathcal{D}(\Gamma_N Q)$…
Let X be an algebraic variety with an action of an algebraic group G. Suppose X has a full exceptional collection of sheaves, and these sheaves are invariant under the action of the group. We construct a semiorthogonal decomposition of…
Motivated by the enhanced gauge symmetry phenomenon of the physics literature and mirror symmetry, this paper constructs an action of an Artin group on the derived category of coherent sheaves of a smooth quasiprojective threefold…
In this paper we construct and study an action of the affine braid group associated to a semi-simple algebraic group on derived categories of coherent sheaves on various varieties related to the Springer resolution of the nilpotent cone. In…
We construct geometric categorical Lie algebra actions on the derived category of coherent sheaves on Nakajima quiver varieties. These actions categorify Nakajima's construction of Kac-Moody algebra representations on the K-theory of quiver…
We study finite abelian groups acting on three-dimensional rationally connected varieties. We concentrate on the groups of K3 type, that is, abelian extensions by a cyclic group of groups that faithfully act on a K3 surface. In particular,…
Given a quasi-projective 3-fold X with only Gorenstein terminal singularities, we prove that the flop functors beginning at X satisfy higher degree braid relations, with the combinatorics controlled by a real hyperplane arrangement H. This…
This paper classifies spherical objects in various geometric settings in dimensions two and three, including both minimal and partial crepant resolutions of Kleinian singularities, as well as arbitrary flopping 3-fold contractions with only…
We construct a finite dimensional quiver algebra from the non-simply laced type $B$ Dynkin diagram, which we call the type $B$ zigzag algebra. This leads to a faithful categorical action of the type $B$ braid group $\mathcal{A}(B)$, acting…
