We give a new and intrinsic proof of the transitivity of the braid group action on the set of full exceptional sequences of coherent sheaves on a weighted projective line. We do not use here the corresponding result of Crawley-Boevey for modules over hereditary algebras. As an application we prove that the strongest global dimension of the category of coherent sheaves on a weighted projective line $\XX$ does not depend on the parameters of $\XX$. Finally we prove that the determinant of the matrix obtained by taking the values of $n$ $\ZZ$-linear functions defined on the Grothendieck group $K_0(\XX) \simeq \ZZ^n $ of the elements of a full exceptional sequence is an invariant, up to sign.
We define a family of the braid group representations via the action of the $R$-matrix (of the quasitriangular extension) of the restricted quantum $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ on a tensor power of a simple projective module. This family is an extension of the Lawrence representation specialized at roots of unity. Although the center of the braid group has finite order on the specialized Laurence representations, this action is faithful for our extension.
We construct an action of a braid group associated to a complete graph on the derived category of a certain symmetric Nakayama algebra which is also a Brauer star algebra with no exceptional vertex. We connect this action with the affine braid group action on Brauer star algebras defined by Schaps and Zakay-Illouz. We show that for Brauer star algebras with no exceptional vertex, the action is faithful.
We classify the blocks, compute the Verma flags of tilting and projective modules in the BGG category $\mathcal O$ for the exceptional Lie superalgebra $G(3)$. The projective injective modules in $\mathcal O$ are classified. We also compute the Jordan-Hölder multiplicities of the Verma modules in $\mathcal O$.
Let $\cP=G/P$ be a homogeneous projective variety with $G$ a reductive group and $P$ a parabolic subgroup. In positive characteristic we exhibit for $G$ of low rank a Karoubian complete strongly exceptional poset of locally free sheaves appearing in the Frobenius direct image of the structure sheaf of $G/P$. These sheaves are all defined over $\bbZ$, so by base change provide a Karoubian complete strongly exceptional poset on $\cP$ over $\bbC$, adding to the list of classical results by Beilinson and Kapranov on the Grassmannians and the quadrics over $\bbC$.
The present paper focuses on the study of t-stabilities on a triangulated category in the sense of Gorodentsev, Kuleshov and Rudakov. We give an equivalent description for the finest t-stability on a piecewise hereditary triangulated category and, describe the semistable subcategories and final HN triangles for (exceptional) coherent sheaves in $D^b(\rm{coh}\mathbb{X})$, which is the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on the weighted projective line $\mathbb{X}$ of weight type (2). Furthermore, we show the existence of a t-exceptional triple for $D^b(\rm{coh}\mathbb{X})$. As an appli…
Ng and Schauenburg proved that the kernel of a $(2+1)$-dimensional topological quantum field theory representation of $\mathrm{SL}(2, \mathbb{Z})$ is a congruence subgroup. Motivated by their result, we explore when the kernel of an irreducible representation of the braid group $B_3$ with finite image enjoys a congruence subgroup property. In particular, we show that in dimensions two and three, when the projective order of the image of the braid generator $σ_1$ is between 2 and 5 the kernel projects onto a congruence subgroup of $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$ and compute its level. However, we …
In this paper, we construct recollements and ladders for exceptional curves by using reduction/insertion functors due to $p$-cycle construction. As applications to weighted projective lines, we classify recollements for the category of coherent sheaves over a weighted projective line, and give an explicit description of ladders in two different levels: the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves and the stable category of vector bundles.
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 identify the trigraded dimensions of the space of morphisms of this category with intersection numbers coming from the topological origin of the group.
We classify spherical modules and full exceptional sequences of modules over the Auslander algebra of $k[x]/(x^t)$. We categorify the left and right symmetric group actions on these exceptional sequences to two braid group actions: of spherical twists along simple modules, and of right mutations. In particular, every such exceptional sequence is obtained by spherical twists from a standard sequence, and likewise for right mutations.
In an unpublished preprint, A. King conjectured that there are tilting bundles over projective varieties which are obtained as invariant quotients of affine spaces for linear actions of reductive groups. The goal of this paper is to give further examples of strong exceptional sequences of vector bundles on certain projective varieties. These are obtained as geometric invariant quotients of affine spaces by linear actions of reductive groups, as in King's conjecture.
As part of a protocol, we braid in a certain way six anyons of topological charges $222211$ in the Kauffman-Jones version of $SU(2)$ Chern-Simons theory at level $4$. The gate we obtain is a braid for the usual qutrit $2222$ but with respect to a different basis. With respect to that basis, the Freedman group of \cite{LEV} is identical to the $D$-group $D(18,1,1;2,1,1)$. We give a physical interpretation for each Blichfeld generator of the group $D(18,1,1;2,1,1)$. Inspired by these new techniques for the qutrit, we are able to make new ancillas, namely $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(|1>\,+|3>)$ and $\fra…
We introduce the class of projective reflection groups which includes all complex reflection groups. We show that several aspects involving the combinatorics and the representation theory of all non exceptional irreducible complex reflection groups find a natural description in this wider setting.
In this paper we describe the structure of a group of conjugating automorphisms $C_n$ of free group and prove that this structure is similar to the structure of a braid group $B_n$ with $n>1$ strings. We find the linear representation of group $C_n$. Also we prove that the braid group $B_n(S^2)$ of 2--sphere, mapping class group M(0,n) of the $n$--punctured 2--sphere and the braid group $B_3(P^2)$ of the projective plane are linear. Using result of J. Dyer, E. Formanek, E. Grossman and the faithful linear representation of Lawrence--Krammer of $B_4$ we construct faithful linear representation …
In the appendix of the famous book "Commutative Algebra with a View Towards Algebraic Geometry" one can find an infinite family of complexes indexed by integers. This family includes Eagon-Northcott and Buschsbaum-Rim complexes. The objective of this paper is to study this family, and, in particular, refine the knowledge of its cohomology. First, we obtain these complexes from the derived images of twists of the Koszul complex on the projective space. This idea apparently goes back to Kempf [1970]. Taking this "geometric" point of view, we interpret the cohomology of these complexes as the coh…
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 on the homotopy category of its projective modules. This categorical action is also closely related to the topological action of $\mathcal{A}(B)$, viewed as mapping class group of the punctured disc -- hence our exposition can be seen as a type $B$ analogue of Khovanov-Seidel's work in arXiv:math/0006056v2. Moreover, we show that certain category of bimodule…
In this paper, using the correspondence of gentle algebras and dissections of marked surfaces, we study full exceptional sequences in the perfect derived category $\mathsf{K^b(A)}$ of a gentle algebra $\mathsf{A}$. We show that full exceptional sequences in $\mathsf{K^b(A)}$ exist if and only if the associated marked surface has no punctures and has at least two marked points on the boundary. Furthermore, by using induction on cuts of surfaces, we characterise when an exceptional sequence can be completed to a full exceptional sequence. If the genus of the associated surface is zero then we sh…
We give a complete classification of simple representations of the braid group B_3 with dimension $\leq 5$ over any algebraically closed f ield. In particular, we prove that a simple d-dimensional representation $ρ: B_3 \to GL(V)$ is determined up to isomorphism by the eigenvalues $λ_1, λ_2, ..., λ_d$ of the image of the generators for d=2,3 and a choice of a $δ=\sqrt{\det ρ(σ_1)}$ for d=4 or a choice of $δ=\sqrt[5]{\det ρ(σ_1)}$ for d=5. We also s howed that such representations exist whenever the eigenvalues and $δ$ are not roots of certain polynomials $Q_{ij}^{(d)}$, which are explicitly gi…
