Twisted wild character varieties

Dynamics on Wild Character Varieties

In the present paper, we will first present briefly a general research program about the study of the "natural dynamics" on character varieties and wild character varieties. Afterwards, we will illustrate this program in the context of the Painlevé differential equations $P_{\rm VI}$ and $P_{\rm V}$.

BPS states, torus links and wild character varieties

A string theoretic framework is constructed relating the cohomology of wild character varieties to refined stable pair theory and torus link invariants. Explicit conjectural formulas are derived for wild character varieties with a unique irregular point on the projective line. For this case the string theoretic construction leads to a conjectural colored generalization of existing results of Hausel, Mereb and Wong as well as Shende, Treumann and Zaslow.

Local curves, wild character varieties, and degenerations

Conjectural results for cohomological invariants of wild character varieties are obtained by counting curves in degenerate Calabi-Yau threefolds. A conjectural formula for E-polynomials is derived from the Gromov-Witten theory of local Calabi-Yau threefolds with normal crossing singularities. A refinement is also conjectured, generalizing existing results of Hausel, Mereb and Wong as well as recent joint work of Donagi, Pantev and the author for weighted Poincaré polynomials of wild character varieties.

Schubert varieties in twisted affine flag varieties and local models

Our concern in this paper is the dimension and inclusion relations of Schubert varieties in twisted partial affine flag varieties. In the end we apply our results to some local models of certain Schubert varieties.

Arithmetic and representation theory of wild character varieties

We count points over a finite field on wild character varieties of Riemann surfaces for singularities with regular semisimple leading term. The new feature in our counting formulas is the appearance of characters of Yokonuma-Hecke algebras. Our result leads to the conjecture that the mixed Hodge polynomials of these character varieties agree with previously conjectured perverse Hodge polynomials of certain twisted parabolic Higgs moduli spaces, indicating the possibility of a P=W conjecture for a suitable wild Hitchin system.

Tilting objects on twisted forms of some relative flag varieties

We prove the existence of tilting objects on generalized Brauer--Severi varieties, some relative flags and some twisted forms of relative flags. As an application we obtain tilting objects on certain homogeneous varieties of classical type and on certain twisted forms of homogeneous varieties of type $A_n$ and $C_n$.

n-dimensional Fano varieties of wild representation type

The aim of this work is to provide the first examples of $n$-dimensional varieties of wild representation type, for arbitrary $n\geq 2$. More precisely, we prove that all Fano blow-ups of $\PP^n$ at a finite number of points are of wild representation type exhibiting families of dimension of order $r^2$ of simple (hence, indecomposable) ACM rank $r$ vector bundles for any $r\geq n$. In the two dimensional case, the vector bundles that we construct are moreover Ulrich bundles and $μ$-stable with respect to certain ample divisor.

A local-global principle for twisted flag varieties

We prove a local-global principle for twisted flag varieties over a semiglobal field.

Frieze varieties : A characterization of the finite-tame-wild trichotomy for acyclic quivers

We introduce a new class of algebraic varieties which we call frieze varieties. Each frieze variety is determined by an acyclic quiver. The frieze variety is defined in an elementary recursive way by constructing a set of points in affine space. From a more conceptual viewpoint, the coordinates of these points are specializations of cluster variables in the cluster algebra associated to the quiver. We give a new characterization of the finite--tame--wild trichotomy for acyclic quivers in terms of their frieze varieties. We show that an acyclic quiver is representation finite, tame, or wild, re…

Twisted holomorphic forms on generalized flag varieties

In this paper we prove some vanishing theorems for the twisted Dolbeault cohomology of the complete flag varieties associated to a simple, simply connected algebraic group.

Nilpotent varieties in symmetric spaces and twisted affine Schubert varieties

We relate the geometry of Schubert varieties in twisted affine Grassmannian and the nilpotent varieties in symmetric spaces. This extends some results of Achar-Henderson in the twisted setting. We also get some applications to the geometry of the order 2 nilpotent varieties in certain classical symmetric spaces.

Shells of twisted flag varieties and the Rost invariant

We introduce two new general methods to compute the Chow motives of twisted flag varieties and settle a 20-year-old conjecture of Markus Rost about the Rost invariant for groups of type E7.

A Derived Equivalence for some Twisted Projective Homogeneous Varieties

In this paper we construct a tilting sheaf for Severi-Brauer Varieties and Involution Varieties. This sheaf relates the derived category of each variety to the derived category of modules over a ring whose semisimple component consists of the Tits algebras of the corresponding linear algebraic group.

Poisson varieties from Riemann surfaces

Short survey based on talk at the Poisson 2012 conference. The main aim is to describe and give some examples of wild character varieties (naturally generalising the character varieties of Riemann surfaces by allowing more complicated behaviour at the boundary), their Poisson/symplectic structures (generalising both the Atiyah-Bott approach and the quasi-Hamiltonian approach), and the wild mapping class groups.

M-regularity of $\mathbb{Q}$-twisted sheaves and its application to linear systems on abelian varieties

G. Pareschi and M. Popa give criterions for global generations and surjectivity of multiplication maps of global sections of coherent sheaves on abelian varieties in the theory of M-regularity. In this paper, we generalize some of their criterions via the M-regularity of $\mathbb{Q}$-twisted sheaves. As an application, we show that the M-regularity of a suitable $\mathbb{Q}$-twisted sheaf implies property $(N_p)$ and jet-ampleness for ample line bundles on abelian varieties.

Twisted Polytope Sheaves and Coherent-Constructible Correspondence for Toric Varieties

Given a smooth projective toric variety $X_Σ$ of complex dimension $n$, Fang-Liu-Treumann-Zaslow \cite{FLTZ} showed that there is a quasi-embedding of the differential graded (dg) derived category of coherent sheaves $Coh(X_Σ)$ into the dg derived category of constructible sheaves on a torus $Sh(T^n, Λ_Σ)$. Recently, Kuwagaki \cite{Ku2} proved that the quasi-embedding is a quasi-equivalence, and generalized the result to toric stacks. Here we give a different proof in the smooth projective case, using non-characteristic deformation of sheaves to find twisted polytope sheaves that co-represent …

Wild character varieties, meromorphic Hitchin systems and Dynkin diagrams

The theory of Hitchin systems is something like a "global theory of Lie groups", where one works over a Riemann surface rather than just at a point. We'll describe how one can take this analogy a few steps further by attempting to make precise the class of rich geometric objects that appear in this story (including the non-compact case), and discuss their classification, outlining a theory of "Dynkin diagrams" as a step towards classifying some examples of such objects.

Hopf-theoretic approach to motives of twisted flag varieties

Let $G$ be a split semisimple algebraic group over a field and let $A^*$ be an oriented cohomology theory in the sense of Levine--Morel. We provide a uniform approach to the $A^*$-motives of geometrically cellular smooth projective $G$-varieties based on the Hopf algebra structure of $A^*(G)$. Using this approach we provide various applications to the structure of motives of twisted flag varieties.

Twisted Deformation Quantization of Algebraic Varieties

Let X be a smooth algebraic variety over a field K containing the real numbers. We introduce the notion of twisted associative (resp. Poisson) deformation of the structure sheaf of X. These are stack-like versions of usual deformations. We prove that there is a twisted quantization operation from twisted Poisson deformations to twisted associative deformations, which is canonical and bijective on gauge equivalence classes. This result extends work of Kontsevich, and our own earlier work, on deformation quantization of algebraic varieties.

Twisted Deformation Quantization of Algebraic Varieties (Survey)

Let X be a smooth algebraic variety over a field of characteristic 0. We introduce the notion of twisted associative (resp. Poisson) deformation of the structure sheaf O_X. These are stack-like versions of usual deformations. We prove that there is a twisted quantization map from twisted Poisson deformations to twisted associative deformations, which is canonical and bijective on equivalence classes.

Twisted loop groups and their affine flag varieties

We develop a theory of affine flag varieties and of their Schubert varieties for reductive groups over a Laurent power series local field k((t)) with k a perfect field. This can be viewed as a generalization of the theory of affine flag varieties for loop groups to a "twisted case"; a consequence of our results is that our construction also includes the flag varieties for Kac-Moody Lie algebras of affine type. We also give a coherence conjecture on the dimensions of the spaces of global sections of the natural ample line bundles on the partial flag varieties attached to a fixed group over k((t…

Algebraic K-theory of varieties $SL_{2n}/Sp_{2n}$, $E_6/F_4$ and their twisted forms

Let $SL_{2n}$, $Sp_{2n}$, $E_6 = G^{sc}(E_6)$, $F_4 = G(F_4)$ be simply connected split algebraic groups over an arbitrary field $F$. Algebraic K-theory of affine homogeneous varieties $SL_{2n}/Sp_{2n}$ and $E_6/F_4$ is computed. Moreover, explicit elements that generate $K_*(SL_{2n}/Sp_{2n})$ and $K_*(E_6/F_4)$ as $K_*(F)$-algebras are provided. For some twisted forms of these varieties K-theory is also computed.

Morava K-theory of twisted flag varieties

In the present article we prove some results about the Morava K-theory. In particular, we construct an operation from the Morava K-theory to the Chow theory analogous to the second Chern class for Grothendieck's K0-theory. Furthermore, we investigate ordinary and equivariant oriented cohomology theories in the sense of Levine-Morel of projective quadrics, and discuss the Rost motives.

Motivic Intersection Complex of Certain Shimura varieties

Using a version of weight conservativity we demonstrate that for certain Shimura varieties (including all Shimura three-folds, most Shimura four-folds and the Siegel sixfold) the construction of the motivic intersection complex due to Wildeshaus compares with a motivic weight truncation in the sense of S. Morel. In particular it is defined up to a unique isomorphism, and satisfies the intrinsic characterization for an intermediate extension due to Wildeshaus.

Newton-Okounkov bodies of Bott-Samelson varieties and Grossberg-Karshon twisted cubes

We describe, under certain conditions, the Newton-Okounkov body of a Bott-Samelson variety as a lattice polytope defined by an explicit list of inequalities. The valuation that we use to define the Newton-Okounkov body is different from that used previously in the literature. The polytope that arises is a special case of the Grossberg-Karshon twisted cubes studied by Grossberg and Karshon in connection to character formulae for irreducible $G$-representations and also studied previously by the authors in relation to certain toric varieties associated to Bott-Samelson varieties.

Wild automorphisms of projective varieties, the maps which have no invariant proper subsets

Let $X$ be a projective variety and $σ$ a wild automorphism on $X$, i.e., whenever $σ(Z) = Z$ for a non-empty Zariski-closed subset $Z$ of $X$, we have $Z = X$. Then $X$ is conjectured to be an abelian variety with $σ$ of zero entropy (and proved to be so when ${\rm dim} \, X \le 2$) by Z. Reichstein, D. Rogalski and J. J. Zhang in their study of projectively simple rings. This conjecture has been generally open for more than a decade. In this note, we confirm this original conjecture when ${\rm dim} \, X \le 3$ and $X$ is not a Calabi-Yau threefold, and also show that $σ$ is of zero entropy w…

Versality of algebraic group actions and rational points on twisted varieties

We formalize and study several competing notions of versality for an action of a linear algebraic group on an algebraic variety X. Our main result is that these notions of versality are equivalent to various statements concerning rational points on twisted forms of X (existence of rational points, existence of a dense set of rational points, etc.) We give applications of this equivalence in both directions, to study versality of group actions and rational points on algebraic varieties. We obtain similar results on p-versality for a prime integer p. An appendix, containing a letter from J.-P. S…

Chow motives of twisted flag varieties

Let G be an adjoint simple algebraic group of inner type. We express the Chow motive (with integral coefficients) of some anisotropic projective G-homogeneous varieties in terms of motives of simpler G-homogeneous varieties, namely, those that correspond to maximal parabolic subgroups of G. We decompose the motive of a generalized Severi-Brauer variety SB_2(A), where A is a division algebra of degree 5, into a direct sum of two indecomposable motives. As an application we provide another counter-example to the uniqueness of a direct sum decomposition in the category of motives with integral co…

Monodromy of rank 2 twisted Hitchin systems and real character varieties

We introduce a new approach for computing the monodromy of the Hitchin map and use this to completely determine the monodromy for the moduli spaces of $L$-twisted $G$-Higgs bundles, for the groups $G = GL(2,\mathbb{C})$, $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$ and $PSL(2,\mathbb{C})$. We also determine the twisted Chern class of the regular locus, which obstructs the existence of a section of the moduli space of $L$-twisted Higgs bundles of rank $2$ and degree $deg(L)+1$. By counting orbits of the monodromy action with $\mathbb{Z}_2$-coefficients, we obtain in a unified manner the number of components of the chara…

A vanishing result for the first twisted cohomology of affine varieties and applications to line arrangements

A general vanishing result for the first cohomology group of affine smooth complex varieties with values in rank one local systems is established. This is applied to the determination of the monodromy action on the first cohomology group of the Milnor fiber of some line arrangements, including the monomial arrangement and the exceptional reflection arrangement of type $G_{31}$.

Twisted orbital integrals and irreducible components of affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties

We analyze the asymptotic behavior of certain twisted orbital integrals arising from the study of affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties. The main tools include the Base Change Fundamental Lemma and $q$-analogues of the Kostant partition functions. As an application we prove a conjecture of Miaofen Chen and Xinwen Zhu, relating the set of irreducible components of an affine Deligne-Lusztig variety modulo the action of the $σ$-centralizer group to the Mirkovic-Vilonen basis of a certain weight space of a representation of the Langlands dual group.

Twisted cyclic quiver varieties on curves

We study the algebraic geometry of twisted Higgs bundles of cyclic type along complex curves. These objects, which generalize ordinary cyclic Higgs bundles, can be identified with representations of a cyclic quiver in a twisted category of coherent sheaves. Referring to the Hitchin fibration, we produce a fibre-wise geometric description of the locus of such representations within the ambient twisted Higgs moduli space. When the genus is 0, we produce a concrete geometric identification of the moduli space as a vector bundle over an associated (twisted) A-type quiver variety; we count the numb…

Additive invariants of toric and twisted projective homogeneous varieties via noncommutative motives

I. Panin proved in the nineties that the algebraic K-theory of twisted projective homogeneous varieties can be expressed in terms of central simple algebras. Later, Merkurjev and Panin described the algebraic K-theory of toric varieties as a direct summand of the algebraic K-theory of separable algebras. In this article, making use of the recent theory of noncommutative motives, we extend Panin and Merkurjev-Panin computations from algebraic K-theory to every additive invariant. As a first application, we fully compute the cyclic homology (and all its variants) of twisted projective homogeneou…

On direct images of twisted pluricanonical sheaves on normal varieties

We study the depth properties of certain direct image sheaves on normal varieties. Let $f: Y\rightarrow X$ be a proper morphism of relative dimension $d$ from a smooth variety onto a normal variety such that the preimage $E$ of the singular locus of $X$ is a divisor. We show that for any integer $m>0$, the higher direct image $R^df_*ω^{\otimes m}_Y(aE)$ modulo the torsion subsheaf is $S_2$, provided that $a$ is sufficiently large. In case $f$ is birational, we give criteria on $a$ for the direct image $f_*ω_Y(aE)$ to coincide with $ω_X$. We also introduce an index measuring the singularities o…

Twisted spectral correspondence and torus knots

Cohomological invariants of twisted wild character varieties as constructed by Boalch and Yamakawa are derived from enumerative Calabi-Yau geometry and refined Chern-Simons invariants of torus knots. Generalizing the untwisted case, the present approach is based on a spectral correspondence for meromorphic Higgs bundles with fixed conjugacy classes at the marked points. This construction is carried out for twisted wild character varieties associated to (l, kl-1) torus knots, providing a colored generalization of existing results of Hausel, Mereb and Wong as well as Shende, Treumann and Zaslow.

Smoothness of Schubert varieties in twisted affine Grassmannians

We give a complete list of smooth and rationally smooth normalized Schubert varieties in the twisted affine Grassmannian associated with a tamely ramified group and a special vertex of its Bruhat-Tits building. The particular case of the quasi-minuscule Schubert variety in the quasi-split but non-split form of ${\rm Spin}_8$ ("ramified triality") provides an input needed in the article by He-Pappas-Rapoport classifying Shimura varieties with good or semi-stable reduction.

Fano varieties of cubic fourfolds containing a plane

We prove that the Fano variety of lines of a generic cubic fourfold containing a plane is isomorphic to a moduli space of twisted stable complexes on a K3 surface. On the other hand, we show that the Fano varieties are always birational to moduli spaces of twisted stable coherent sheaves on a K3 surface. The moduli spaces of complexes and of sheaves are related by wall-crossing in the derived category of twisted sheaves on the corresponding K3 surface.

Non-existence of exceptional collections on twisted flags and categorical representability via noncommutative motives

In this paper we prove that a finite product of Brauer--Severi varieties is categorical representable in dimension zero if and only if it admits a $k$-rational point if and only if it is rational over $k$. The same is true for certain isotropic involution varieties over a field $k$ of characteristic different from two. For finite products of generalized Brauer--Severi varieties, categorical representability in dimension zero is equivalent to the existence of a full exceptional collection. In this case however categorical representability in dimension zero is not equivalent to the existence of …

An algorithm for the classification of twisted forms of toric varieties

Let $K/k$ be a finite Galois extension, $G=\text{Gal}(K/k)$, $Σ$ be a fan in a lattice $N$ and $X_Σ$ be an associated toric variety over $k$. It is well known that the set of $K/k$-forms of $X_Σ$ is in bijection with $H^1(G,\text{Aut}_Σ^T)$, where $\text{Aut}_Σ^T$ is an algebraic group of toric automorphisms of $X_Σ$. In this paper, we suggest an algorithm to compute $H^1(G,\text{Aut}_Σ^T)$ and find that followings can be classified via this algorithm : $K/k$-forms of all toric surfaces, $K/k$-forms of all 3-dimensional affine toric varieties with no torus factor, $K/k$-forms of all 3-dimensio…

Twisted forms of toric varieties

We consider the set of forms of a toric variety over an arbitrary field: those varieties which become isomorphic to a toric variety after base field extension. In contrast to most previous work, we also consider arbitrary isomorphisms rather than just those that respect a torus action. We define an injective map from the set of forms of a toric variety to a non-abelian second cohomology set, which generalizes the usual Brauer class of a Severi-Brauer variety. Additionally, we define a map from the set of forms of a toric variety to the set of forms of a separable algebra along similar lines to…
