We start developing a notion of reciprocity sheaves, generalizing Voevodsky's homotopy invariant presheaves with transfers which were used in the construction of his triangulated categories of motives. We hope reciprocity sheaves will eventually lead to the definition of a larger triangulated category of motivic nature, encompassing non homotopy invariant phenomena.
We study multilinear symbols on fields taking values in reciprocity sheaves. We prove that any such symbol satisfying natural axioms automatically has Steinberg-type relations, which is a manifestation of the geometry of modulus pairs lying behind.
We prove cancellation theorems for reciprocity sheaves and cube-invariant modulus sheaves with transfers of Kahn--Saito--Yamazaki, generalizing Voevodsky's cancellation theorem for $\mathbf{A}^1$-invariant sheaves with transfers. As an application, we get some new formulas for internal hom's of the sheaves $Ω^i$ of absolute Kähler differentials.
We exhibit an intimate relationship between "reciprocity sheaves" from arXiv:1402.4201 [math.AG] and "modulus sheaves with transfers" from arXiv:1908.02975 [math.AG] and arXiv:1910.14534 [math.AG].
We give a new geometric characterization of the motivic ramification filtration of reciprocity sheaves, by imitating a method used by Abbes and (Takeshi) Saito to study the ramification of torsors under finite étale groups. This new characterization is used to define characteristic forms for reciprocity sheaves. We obtain applications on pseudo-rational singularities and on questions regarding the representability of certain cohomology groups of reciprocity sheaves in the triangulated category of motives with modulus introduced by Kahn-Miyazaki-Saito-Yamazaki.
These are the notes accompanying three lectures given by the second author at the Motivic Geometry program at CAS, which aim to give an introduction and an overview of some recent developments in the field of reciprocity sheaves.
We connect two developments aiming at extending Voevodsky's theory of motives over a field in such a way to encompass non-$\mathbf{A}^1$-invariant phenomina. One is theory of reciprocity sheaves introduced by Kahn-Saito-Yamazaki. Another is theory of the triangulated category $\operatorname{\mathbf{logDM}}^{\operatorname{eff}}$ of logarithmic motives launched by Binda, Park and Østvær. We prove that the Nisnevich cohomology of reciprocity sheaves is representable in $\operatorname{\mathbf{logDM}}^{\operatorname{eff}}$.
The purpose of this paper is to prove a conjecture on reciprocity sheaves by Kahn-Saito-Yamazaki. This is accomplished by extending Voevodsky's fundamental results on homotopy invariant (pre)sheaves with transfers to its generalizations, reciprocity sheaves and cube-invariant sheaves in the context of theory of modulus (pre)sheave with transfers. The main results of this paper is expected to play a crucial role in deducing the main properties of the triangulated category of motives with modulus, which is a new triangulated category enlarging Voevodsky's triangulated category of motives to enco…
We prove a Zariski-Nagata purity theorem for the motivic ramification filtration of a reciprocity sheaf. An important tool in the proof is a generalization of the Kato-Saito reciprocity map from geometric global class field theory to all reciprocity sheaves. As a corollary we obtain cut-by-curves and cut-by-surfaces criteria for various ramification filtrations. In some cases this reproves known theorems, in some cases we obtain new results.
In this paper we show the existence of an action of Chow correspondences on the cohomology of reciprocity sheaves. In order to do so, we prove a number of structural results, such as a projective bundle formula, a blow-up formula, a Gysin sequence, and the existence of proper pushforward. In this way we recover and generalize analogous statements for the cohomology of Hodge sheaves and Hodge-Witt sheaves. We give several applications of the general theory to problems which have been classically studied. Among these applications, we construct new birational invariants of smooth projective varie…
In this work we introduce reciprocity functors, construct the associated K-group of a family of reciprocity functors, which itself is a reciprocity functor, and compute it in several different cases. It may be seen as a first attempt to get close to the notion of reciprocity sheaves imagined by B. Kahn. Commutative algebraic groups, homotopy invariant Nisnevich sheaves with transfers, cycle modules or Kähler differentials are examples of reciprocity functors. As commutative algebraic groups do, reciprocity functors are equipped with symbols and satisfy a reciprocity law for curves.
We introduce the notion of a "baric structure" on a triangulated category, as an abstraction of S. Morel's weight truncation formalism for mixed l-adic sheaves. We study these structures on the derived category D_G(X) of G-equivariant coherent sheaves on a G-scheme X. Our main result shows how to endow this derived category with a family of nontrivial baric structures when G acts on X with finitely many orbits. We also describe a general construction for producing a new t-structure on a triangulated category equipped with given t- and baric structures, and we prove that the staggered t-structu…
Recently, Rizzardo and Van den Bergh constructed an example of a triangulated functor between the derived categories of coherent sheaves on smooth projective varieties over a field $k$ of characteristic $0$ which is not of the Fourier-Mukai type. The purpose of this note is to show that if $char \, k =p$ then there are very simple examples of such functors. Namely, for a smooth projective $Y$ over $\mathbb Z_p$ with the special fiber $i: X\hookrightarrow Y$, we consider the functor $L i^* \circ i_*: D^b(X) \to D^b(X)$ from the derived categories of coherent sheaves on $X$ to itself. We show th…
In this paper we establish an equivalence between the category of graded D-branes of type B in Landau-Ginzburg models with homogeneous superpotential W and the triangulated category of singularities of the fiber of W over zero. The main result is a theorem that shows that the graded triangulated category of singularities of the cone over a projective variety is connected via a fully faithful functor to the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on the base of the cone. This implies that the category of graded D-branes of type B in Landau-Ginzburg models with homogeneous superpotential W …
The paper contains general results on the uniqueness of a DG enhancement for triangulated categories. As a consequence we obtain such uniqueness for the unbounded categories of quasi-coherent sheaves, for the triangulated categories of perfect complexes, and for the bounded derived categories of coherent sheaves on quasi-projective schemes. If a scheme is projective then we also prove a strong uniqueness for the triangulated category of perfect complexes and for the bounded derived categories of coherent sheaves. These results directly imply that fully faithful functors from the bounded derive…
We give a description of the tensor product of SC-reciprocity presheaves with transfers in terms of $K$-group of geometric type, and we study a structure of the tensor product of $\mathbb{G}_a$ and $\mathbb{G}_a$. We apply our description to give a description of Chow group of 0-cycles with modulus of products of curves. We also show that the tensor product of $\mathbb{G}_a$ and $\mathbb{G}_m$ is isomorphic to the sheaf $Ω^1$ of Kähler differential forms as reciprocity sheaves over characteristic zero.
We introduce the notion of a quasi DG category, generalizing that of a DG category. To a quasi DG category satisfying certain additional conditions, we associate another quasi DG category, the quasi DG category of $C$-diagrams. We then show the homotopy category of the quasi DG category of $C$-diagrams has the structure of a triangulated category. This procedure is then applied to produce a triangulated category of mixed motives over a base variety.
Let $X$ be a finite connected simplicial complex, and let $δ$ be a perversity (i.e., some function from integers to integers). One can consider two categories: (1) the category of perverse sheaves cohomologically constructible with respect to the triangulation, and (2) the category of sheaves constant along the perverse simplices ($δ$-sheaves). We interpret the categories (1) and (2) as categories of modules over certain quadratic (and even Koszul) algebras $A(X,δ)$ and $B(X,δ)$ respectively, and we prove that $A(X,δ)$ and $B(X,δ)$ are Koszul dual to each other. We define the $δ$-perverse topo…
A. D'Agnolo and M. Kashiwara proved that their enhanced solution functor induces a fully faithful embedding of the triangulated category of holonomic D-modules into the one of R-constructible enhanced ind-sheaves. In this paper, we define C-constructible enhanced ind-sheaves and show that the triangulated category of them is equivalent to its essential image. Moreover we show that there exists a t-structure on it whose heart is equivalent to the abelian category of holonomic D-modules.
The notion of modulus is a striking feature of Rosenlicht-Serre's theory of generalized Jacobian varieties of curves. It was carried over to algebraic cycles on general varieties by Bloch-Esnault, Park, Rülling, Krishna-Levine. Recently, Kerz-Saito introduced a notion of Chow group of $0$-cycles with modulus in connection with geometric class field theory with wild ramification for varieties over finite fields. We study the non-homotopy invariant part of the Chow group of $0$-cycles with modulus and show their torsion and divisibility properties. Modulus is being brought to sheaf theory by Kah…
This is a survey of author's results on weight structures and Voevodsky's motives. Weight structures are natural counterparts of t-structures (for triangulated categories) introduced by the author. They allow to construct weight complexes, weight filtrations, and weight spectral sequences for various cohomology theories. Partial cases of the latter are: 'classical' weight spectral sequences (for singular and etale cohomology), coniveau spectral sequences, and Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequences. All of those are mentioned in the current paper. The details, proofs, and several more results cou…
We define a motivic conductor for any presheaf with transfers $F$ using the categorical framework developed for the theory of motives with modulus by Kahn-Miyazaki-Saito-Yamazaki. If $F$ is a reciprocity sheaf this conductor yields an increasing and exhaustive filtration on $F(L)$, where $L$ is any henselian discrete valuation field of geometric type over the perfect ground field. We show if $F$ is a smooth group scheme, then the motivic conductor extends the Rosenlicht-Serre conductor; if $F$ assigns to $X$ the group of finite characters on the abelianized étale fundamental group of $X$, then…
Let $X_N$ be the second infinitesimal neighborhood of a closed point in $N$-dimensional affine space. In this note we study $D^b(coh\, X_N)$, the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on $X_N$. We show that for $N\geq 2$ the lattice of triangulated subcategories in $D^b(coh\, X_N)$ has a rich structure (which is probably wild), in contrast to the case of zero-dimensional complete intersections. We also establish a relation between triangulated subcategories in $D^b(coh\, X_N)$ and universal localizations of a free graded associative algebra in $N$ variables. Our homological methods prod…
In this paper we prove that the dimension of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth quasi-projective curve is equal to one. We also discuss dimension spectrums of these categories.
We present a novel notion of stable objects in a triangulated category. This Postnikov-stability is preserved by equivalences. We show that for the derived category of a projective variety this notion includes the case of semistable sheaves. As one application we compactify a moduli space of stable bundles using genuine complexes via Fourier-Mukai transforms.
We propose the notion of stability on a triangulated category that is a generalization of the T.Bridgeland's stability data. We establish connections between stabilities and t-structures on a category and as application we get the classification of bounded t-structures on the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a line.
We prove a theorem relating torus-equivariant coherent sheaves on toric varieties to polyhedrally-constructible sheaves on a vector space. At the level of K-theory, the theorem recovers Morelli's description of the K-theory of a smooth projective toric variety. Specifically, let $X$ be a proper toric variety of dimension $n$ and let $M_\bR = \mathrm{Lie}(T_\bR^\vee)\cong \bR^n$ be the Lie algebra of the compact dual (real) torus $T_\bR^\vee\cong U(1)^n$. Then there is a corresponding conical Lagrangian $Λ\subset T^*M_\bR$ and an equivalence of triangulated dg categories $\Perf_T(X) \cong \Sh_{…
For noetherian schemes of finite dimension over a field of characteristic exponent $p$, we study the triangulated categories of $\mathbf{Z}[1/p]$-linear mixed motives obtained from cdh-sheaves with transfers. We prove that these have many of the expected properties. In particular, the formalism of the six operations holds in this context. When we restrict ourselves to regular schemes, we also prove that these categories of motives are equivalent to the more classical triangulated categories of mixed motives constructed in terms of Nisnevich sheaves with transfers. Such a program is achieved by…
We develop a theory of residues for arithmetic surfaces, establish the reciprocity law around a point, and use the residue maps to explicitly construct the dualizing sheaf of the surface. These are generalisations of known results for surfaces over a perfect field. In an appendix, explicit local ramification theory is used to recover the fact that in the case of a local complete intersection the dualizing and canonical sheaves coincide.
The tensor product of $\mathbb{A}^1$-invariant sheaves with transfers introduced by Voevodsky is generalized to reciprocity sheaves via the theory of modulus presheaves with transfers. We prove several general properties of this construction and compute it in some cases. In particular we obtain new (motivic) presentations of the absolute Kähler differentials and the first infinitesimal neighborhood of the diagonal.
Perverse schobers are categorifications of perverse sheaves. We construct a perverse schober on a partial compactification of the stringy Kähler moduli space (SKMS) associated by Halpern-Leistner and Sam to a quasi-symmetric representation X of a reductive group G, extending the local system of triangulated categories established by them. The triangulated categories appearing in our perverse schober are subcategories of the derived category of the quotient stack X/G.
The goal of this paper is to extend the work of Voevodsky and Morel on the homotopy $t$-structure on the category of motivic complexes to the context of motives for logarithmic schemes. To do so, we prove an analogue of Morel's connectivity theorem and show a purity statement for $(\mathbf{P}^1, \infty)$-local complexes of sheaves with log transfers. The homotopy $t$-structure on $\mathbf{logDM}^{\textrm{eff}}(k)$ is proved to be compatible with Voevodsky's $t$-structure i.e. we show that the comparison functor $R^{\overline{\square}}ω^*\colon \mathbf{DM}^{\textrm{eff}}(k)\to \mathbf{logDM}^{\…
The strictly homotopy invariance of the associated Nisnevish sheave $\widetilde{\mathcal F}_{Nis}$ of a homotopy invariant presheave $\mathcal F$ with GW-transfers (or Witt-transfers) on the category of smooth varieties over a prefect field $k$, $char\,k \neq 2$, is proved, i.e. the isomorphism $$H^i_{Nis}(\mathbb A^1\times X,\widetilde{\mathcal F}_{Nis})\simeq H^i_{Nis}(X,\widetilde{\mathcal F}_{Nis})$$ for any $X\in Sm_k$ is obtained. This theorem is necessary for the construction of the triangulated category of GW-motives $\mathbf{DM}^{GW}(k)$ and Witt-motives $\mathbf{DM}^W(k)$ by the Voev…
T. Bridgeland defined the notion of a stability manifold for a triangulated category, motivated by Douglas's work on Π-stability for D-branes. We show that the stability manifold of the bounded derived category of the coherent sheaves on P^1 is C^2. This is the first complete picture of a stability manifold for a non-Calabi-Yau manifold.
We construct semi-orthogonal decompositions on triangulated categories of parabolic sheaves on certain kinds of logarithmic schemes. This provides a categorification of the decomposition theorems in Kummer flat K-theory due to Hagihara and Nizioł. Our techniques allow us to generalize Hagihara and Nizioł's results to a much larger class of invariants in addition to K-theory, and also to extend them to more general logarithmic stacks.
In this paper, we prove a form of purity property for the $(\mathbb{P}^1, \infty)$-invariant replacement $h_0^{\overline{\square}}(\mathfrak{X})$ of the Yoneda object $\mathbb{Z}_{\rm tr} (\mathfrak{X})$ for a modulus pair $\mathfrak{X}=(\overline{X}, X_\infty)$ over a field $k$, consisting of a smooth projective $k$-scheme and an effective Cartier divisor on it. As application, we prove the analogue in the modulus setting of Voevodsky's fundamental theorem on the homotopy invariance of the cohomology of homotopy invariant sheaves with transfers, based on a main result of "Purity of reciprocit…
For any cohomology theory $H$ that can be factorized through (the Morel-Voevodsky's triangulated motivic homotopy category) $SH^{S^1}(k)$ we establish the $SH^{S^1}(k)$-functoriality of coniveau spectral sequences for $H$. We also prove: for any affine essentially smooth semi-local $S$ the Cousin complex for $H^*(S)$ splits; if $H$ also factorizes through $SH^+(k)$ or $DM(k)$, then this is also true for any primitive $S$. Moreover, the cohomology of such an $S$ is a direct summand of the cohomology of any its open dense subscheme. This is a vast generalization of the results of a previous pape…
