Knörrer type equivalences for cyclic quotient surface singularities

Continuous K-theory and cohomology of rigid spaces
Freitag, 17.5.19, 10:30-11:30, Raum 404, Ernst-Zermelo-Str. 1
Continuous K-theory is a variant of algebraic K-theory for rigid spaces (nonarchimedean analytic spaces). In this talk, I will relate the bottom K-theory group of a rigid space with its top cohomology group with integral coefficients. I will begin with some recollections about algebraic K-theory for schemes and then introduce continuous K-theory for rigid spaces, as defined by Morrow and further studied by Kerz-Saito-Tamme. Afterwards, I will present an easy proof of my result in the regular case assuming resolution of singularities. This will be done in terms of Berkovich spaces and their skeleta (which will be used as a black box). The general result avoids the assumption of resolution of singularities and works with Zariski-Riemann type spaces instead which are defined as the limit over all models. Despite not a scheme anymore, these Zariski-Riemann type spaces behave, due to a result by Kerz-Strunk, from the K-theoretic point of view similar as a regular model does. The content of this talk is based on my PhD thesis advised by Moritz Kerz and Georg Tamme.
Grothendieck groups of isolated quotient singularities
Freitag, 24.5.19, 10:30-11:30, Raum 404, Ernst-Zermelo-Str. 1
We study the Grothendieck group of the Buchweitz-Orlov singularity category for quasi-projective algebraic schemes. Particularly, we show for isolated quotient singularities that the Grothendieck group of its singularity category is finite torsion and that rational Poincare duality is satisfied on the level of Grothendieck groups. We consider also consequences for the resolution of singularities of such quotient singularities. More concretely we prove a conjecture of Bondal and Orlov on the derived category of rational singularities in the case of quotient singularities.
Gorensteinness and iteration of Cox rings
Freitag, 31.5.19, 10:30-11:30, Raum 404, Ernst-Zermelo-Str. 1
We show that finitely generated Cox rings have trivial canonical class. This leads to a refined characterization of varieties of Fano type: they are exactly those projective varieties with Gorenstein canonical quasicone Cox ring. We then show that for varieties of Fano type and Kawamata log terminal quasicones, iteration of Cox rings is finite with factorial master Cox ring.\n
Tame topology and algebraic geometry
Freitag, 7.6.19, 10:30-11:30, Raum 404, Ernst-Zermelo-Str. 1
In the 80's Grothendieck argued that general topology, which was developed for the needs of analysis, should be replaced by a "tame topology" if one wants to study the topological properties of natural geometric forms. Such a tame topology was developed by model theorists under the name "o-minimal structures". In this talk I will review the notion of o-minimal structure, and some of its applications to complex algebraic geometry, in particular for studying periods of algebraic varieties.\n\n
Motives
Freitag, 21.6.19, 10:30-11:30, Raum 404, Ernst-Zermelo-Str. 1
I am going to give an informal survey of the different theories of motives and how they relate.
Constructible sheaves
Freitag, 28.6.19, 10:30-11:30, Raum 404, Ernst-Zermelo-Str. 1
Given a stratified topological space, we answer the question whether the functor from the derived category of constructible sheaves to the derived category of sheaves with constructible cohomology is an equivalence.\nBasic facts on locally constant sheaves and constructible sheaves will be explained. This is joint work with Valery Lunts and Jörg Schürmann.
One-sided exact categories and glider representations.
Donnerstag, 4.7.19, 10:30-11:30, Raum 403, Ernst-Zermelo-Str. 1
Quillen exact categories provide an excellent framework to do homological algebra and algebraic K-theory. A Quillen exact category is an additive category together with a chosen class of kernel-cokernel pairs (called conflations) satisfying 8 axioms. These 8 axioms can be partitioned into two dual sets of axioms referring to either the kernel-part of a conflation (called an inflation) or the cokernel-part of a conflation (called a deflation). However, 2 of the axioms were quickly found to be redundant. These two dual axioms are known as Quillen's obscure axioms.\n\nA one-sided exact category is defined by keeping either the set of axioms referring to inflation or deflations, however, one might wonder whether the obscure axiom needs to be included. In this talk, we will provide several homological interpretations of the obscure axiom. Moreover, any one-sided exact category can naturally be closed under the obscure axiom and is derived equivalent to this obscure closure. As such, we conclude that the obscure axiom may just as well be included into the definition. \n\nWe apply the theory of one-sided exact categories to obtain a categorical framework for glider representations. Glider representations are a type of filtered representations of a filtered ring. We end by concluding that glider representations remember more information on the original ring than ordinary representation theory.
Localizing (one-sided) exact categories
Freitag, 5.7.19, 10:30-11:30, Raum 404, Ernst-Zermelo-Str. 1
One-sided exact categories are a generalization of Quillen exact categories; they satisfy many desirable homological properties and provide a comparable framework for K-theory. Similar to the exact setting, one can consider the derived category of a one-sided exact category by taking the Verdier quotient of the homotopy category by the subcategory of acyclic complexes.\n\nMimicking the setting of a Serre subcategory of an abelian category, we introduce percolating subcategories of exact categories. One can show that the corresponding localization is, in general, not exact, but merely one-sided exact.\n\nIn this talk, we will discuss these localizations and the corresponding Verdier localizations on the bounded derived categories.\n(Based on joint work with Ruben Henrard.)
Zero cycles on moduli spaces of curves
Freitag, 12.7.19, 10:30-11:30, Raum 404, Ernst-Zermelo-Str. 1
Tautological zero cycles form a one-dimensional subspace of\nthe set of all algebraic zero-cycles on the moduli space of stable curves. The full group of zero cycles can in general be infinite-dimensional, so not all points of the moduli space will represent a tautological class. In the\ntalk, I will present geometric conditions ensuring that a pointed curve does define a tautological point. On the other hand, given any point Q in the moduli space we can find other points P1, ..., Pm such that Q+P1+ ... +\nPm is tautological. The necessary number m is uniformly bounded in terms of g,n, but the question of its minimal value is open. This is joint work with R. Pandharipande.
Wall crossing morphisms for moduli of stable pairs
Freitag, 19.7.19, 10:30-11:30, Raum 404, Ernst-Zermelo-Str. 1
Consider a moduli space M parametrizing stable pairs of the form (X, \bsum ai Di) with ai n positive rational numbers. Consider n positive rational numbers bi with bi \ble ai, and assume that the objects on the interior of M are pairs with KX +\bsum bi Di big. Then on the interior of M one can send a pair (X, \bsum ai Di) to the canonical model of (X, \bsum bi Di). If N is a moduli space of stable pairs with coefficients bi this gives a set theoretic map from an open substack of M to N. We investigate when such a map can be extended to the whole M. Our main result is if the interior of M parameterizes klt pairs we can extend the map, up to replacing M and N with their normalizations. The extension does not exist if above we replace the word normalization with seminormalizaton instead. This is joint with Kenny Ascher, Dori Bejleri and Zsolt Patakfalvi.
