Matrix factorizations of some discriminants

In this talk, we consider discriminants of complex reflection groups. We identify certain matrix factorizations, whose corresponding Cohen-Macaulay modules give a noncommutative resolution of the discriminant. We will in particular consider the family of pseudo-reflection groups G(r,p,n), for which one can explicitly determine these matrix factorizations that are indexed by partitions, using higher Specht polynomials (work in progress with Colin Ingalls, Simon May, and Marco Talarico).

The Gamma and SYZ conjectures

I will give some background on the Gamma Conjecture, which says that mirror symmetry does *not* respect integral cycles: rather, the integral cycles on a complex manifold correspond to integral cycles on the symplectic mirror, multiplied by a certain transcendental characteristic class called the Gamma class. In the second part of the talk I will explain a new geometric approach to the Gamma Conjecture, which is based on the SYZ viewpoint on mirror symmetry. We find that the appearance of zeta(k) in the asymptotics of period integrals arises from the codimension-k singular locus of the SYZ fibration. This is based on joint work with Abouzaid, Ganatra, and Iritani.

Gentle algebras arising from surfaces with orbifold points

Some years ago, Diego Velasco and I associated a gentle algebra to each triangulation of a polygon with one orbifold point of order three, and showed that the \tau-tilting combinatorics of this gentle algebra coincides with the combinatorics of flips of triangulations.

Moreover, we showed that whenever one mutates support \tau-tilting pairs, the corresponding Caldero-Chapoton functions obey a generalized cluster exchange formula, which means that the Caldero-Chapoton algebra is isomorphic to a generalized cluster algebra of Chekhov-Shapiro.

 

Generalizing the aforementioned work, in ongoing collaboration Lang Mou and I associate a gentle algebra to each triangulation of any unpunctured surface with orbifold points of order three. We are able to define generalized reflection functors and DWZ-like mutations of representations. This is somewhat surprising, since the quivers we consider are allowed to have loops, and the matrix-mutation classes of their skew-symmetrizable matrices may fail to have acyclic representatives.

Enhanced n-angulated categories

These categories were introduced by Geiss, Keller, and Oppermann in order to encode the behaviour of n-cluster tilting subcategories of triangulated categories. In this talk I will define differential graded enhancements for these categories, analogous to those of Bondal and Kapranov for triangulated categories. I will present an existence and uniqueness theorem for n-angulated enhancements which holds, for instance, for the additivization of an n-cluster tilting object. As a corollary, I will deduce that a triangulated category with a (higher) cluster tilting object has a unique triangulated enhancement. This is joint work with Gustavo Jasso (Lund).

The sphere of spherical objects

Consider the 2-Calabi--Yau triangulated category arising from the zigzag algebra of the An quiver. The braid group acts on this category by twists in spherical objects. Given a Bridgeland stability condition, we describe how to realise the spherical objects as a dense subset of a piecewise-linear manifold. This manifold is canonically associated to the category, and the braid group acts on it piecewise-linearly. We also describe how the manifold transforms under wall-crossings of the stability condition. The talk is based on joint work with Anand Deopurkar and Anthony M. Licata.

Euler structures and noncommutative volume forms

Calabi-Yau structures on dg categories provide a noncommutative analog of symplectic structures. In this talk I will introduce a noncommutative analog of volume forms called noncommutative Euler structures. I will give some examples of these and relate noncommutative Euler structures to string topology-type operations. An application of these ideas is the proof that the Goresky--Hingston string coproduct on the homology of free loop space is not homotopy invariant. If I have time, I will also discuss how Euler structures give rise to volume forms on derived mapping stacks. This is a report on work in progress joint with Florian Naef.
