- Source: Derived noncommutative algebraic geometry
In mathematics, derived noncommutative algebraic geometry, the derived version of noncommutative algebraic geometry, is the geometric study of derived categories and related constructions of triangulated categories using categorical tools. Some basic examples include the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth variety,
D
b
(
X
)
{\displaystyle D^{b}(X)}
, called its derived category, or the derived category of perfect complexes on an algebraic variety, denoted
D
perf
(
X
)
{\displaystyle D_{\operatorname {perf} }(X)}
. For instance, the derived category of coherent sheaves
D
b
(
X
)
{\displaystyle D^{b}(X)}
on a smooth projective variety can be used as an invariant of the underlying variety for many cases (if
X
{\displaystyle X}
has an ample (anti-)canonical sheaf). Unfortunately, studying derived categories as geometric objects of themselves does not have a standardized name.
Derived category of projective line
The derived category of
P
1
{\displaystyle \mathbb {P} ^{1}}
is one of the motivating examples for derived non-commutative schemes due to its easy categorical structure. Recall that the Euler sequence of
P
1
{\displaystyle \mathbb {P} ^{1}}
is the short exact sequence
0
→
O
(
−
2
)
→
O
(
−
1
)
⊕
2
→
O
→
0
{\displaystyle 0\to {\mathcal {O}}(-2)\to {\mathcal {O}}(-1)^{\oplus 2}\to {\mathcal {O}}\to 0}
if we consider the two terms on the right as a complex, then we get the distinguished triangle
O
(
−
1
)
⊕
2
→
ϕ
O
→
Cone
(
ϕ
)
→
+
1
.
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {O}}(-1)^{\oplus 2}{\overset {\phi }{\rightarrow }}{\mathcal {O}}\to \operatorname {Cone} (\phi ){\overset {+1}{\rightarrow }}.}
Since
Cone
(
ϕ
)
≅
O
(
−
2
)
[
+
1
]
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Cone} (\phi )\cong {\mathcal {O}}(-2)[+1]}
we have constructed this sheaf
O
(
−
2
)
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {O}}(-2)}
using only categorical tools. We could repeat this again by tensoring the Euler sequence by the flat sheaf
O
(
−
1
)
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {O}}(-1)}
, and apply the cone construction again. If we take the duals of the sheaves, then we can construct all of the line bundles in
Coh
(
P
1
)
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Coh} (\mathbb {P} ^{1})}
using only its triangulated structure. It turns out the correct way of studying derived categories from its objects and triangulated structure is with exceptional collections.
Semiorthogonal decompositions and exceptional collections
The technical tools for encoding this construction are semiorthogonal decompositions and exceptional collections. A semiorthogonal decomposition of a triangulated category
T
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {T}}}
is a collection of full triangulated subcategories
T
1
,
…
,
T
n
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {T}}_{1},\ldots ,{\mathcal {T}}_{n}}
such that the following two properties hold
(1) For objects
T
i
∈
Ob
(
T
i
)
{\displaystyle T_{i}\in \operatorname {Ob} ({\mathcal {T}}_{i})}
we have
Hom
(
T
i
,
T
j
)
=
0
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Hom} (T_{i},T_{j})=0}
for
i
>
j
{\displaystyle i>j}
(2) The subcategories
T
i
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {T}}_{i}}
generate
T
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {T}}}
, meaning every object
T
∈
Ob
(
T
)
{\displaystyle T\in \operatorname {Ob} ({\mathcal {T}})}
can be decomposed in to a sequence of
T
i
∈
Ob
(
T
)
{\displaystyle T_{i}\in \operatorname {Ob} ({\mathcal {T}})}
,
0
=
T
n
→
T
n
−
1
→
⋯
→
T
1
→
T
0
=
T
{\displaystyle 0=T_{n}\to T_{n-1}\to \cdots \to T_{1}\to T_{0}=T}
such that
Cone
(
T
i
→
T
i
−
1
)
∈
Ob
(
T
i
)
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Cone} (T_{i}\to T_{i-1})\in \operatorname {Ob} ({\mathcal {T}}_{i})}
. Notice this is analogous to a filtration of an object in an abelian category such that the cokernels live in a specific subcategory.
We can specialize this a little further by considering exceptional collections of objects, which generate their own subcategories. An object
E
{\displaystyle E}
in a triangulated category is called exceptional if the following property holds
Hom
(
E
,
E
[
+
ℓ
]
)
=
{
k
if
ℓ
=
0
0
if
ℓ
≠
0
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Hom} (E,E[+\ell ])={\begin{cases}k&{\text{if }}\ell =0\\0&{\text{if }}\ell \neq 0\end{cases}}}
where
k
{\displaystyle k}
is the underlying field of the vector space of morphisms. A collection of exceptional objects
E
1
,
…
,
E
r
{\displaystyle E_{1},\ldots ,E_{r}}
is an exceptional collection of length
r
{\displaystyle r}
if for any
i
>
j
{\displaystyle i>j}
and any
ℓ
{\displaystyle \ell }
, we have
Hom
(
E
i
,
E
j
[
+
ℓ
]
)
=
0
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Hom} (E_{i},E_{j}[+\ell ])=0}
and is a strong exceptional collection if in addition, for any
ℓ
≠
0
{\displaystyle \ell \neq 0}
and any
i
,
j
{\displaystyle i,j}
, we have
Hom
(
E
i
,
E
j
[
+
ℓ
]
)
=
0
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Hom} (E_{i},E_{j}[+\ell ])=0}
We can then decompose our triangulated category into the semiorthogonal decomposition
T
=
⟨
T
′
,
E
1
,
…
,
E
r
⟩
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {T}}=\langle {\mathcal {T}}',E_{1},\ldots ,E_{r}\rangle }
where
T
′
=
⟨
E
1
,
…
,
E
r
⟩
⊥
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {T}}'=\langle E_{1},\ldots ,E_{r}\rangle ^{\perp }}
, the subcategory of objects in
E
∈
Ob
(
T
)
{\displaystyle E\in \operatorname {Ob} ({\mathcal {T}})}
such that
Hom
(
E
,
E
i
[
+
ℓ
]
)
=
0
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Hom} (E,E_{i}[+\ell ])=0}
. If in addition
T
′
=
0
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {T}}'=0}
then the strong exceptional collection is called full.
Beilinson's theorem
Beilinson provided the first example of a full strong exceptional collection. In the derived category
D
b
(
P
n
)
{\displaystyle D^{b}(\mathbb {P} ^{n})}
the line bundles
O
(
−
n
)
,
O
(
−
n
+
1
)
,
…
,
O
(
−
1
)
,
O
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {O}}(-n),{\mathcal {O}}(-n+1),\ldots ,{\mathcal {O}}(-1),{\mathcal {O}}}
form a full strong exceptional collection. He proves the theorem in two parts. First showing these objects are an exceptional collection and second by showing the diagonal
O
Δ
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {O}}_{\Delta }}
of
P
n
×
P
n
{\displaystyle \mathbb {P} ^{n}\times \mathbb {P} ^{n}}
has a resolution whose compositions are tensors of the pullback of the exceptional objects.

Another way to reformulate this lemma for
X

{\displaystyle X=\mathbb {P} ^{n}}
is by looking at the Koszul complex associated to

where
D

are hyperplane divisors of
P

. This gives the exact complex

which gives a way to construct
O

)
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {O}}(-n-1)}
using the sheaves
O

)
,
…
,
O
(

)
,
O
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {O}}(-n),\ldots ,{\mathcal {O}}(-1),{\mathcal {O}}}
, since they are the sheaves used in all terms in the above exact sequence, except for
O

≅
O
(

{\displaystyle {\mathcal {O}}\left(-\sum _{i=0}^{n}D_{i}\right)\cong {\mathcal {O}}(-n-1)}
which gives a derived equivalence of the rest of the terms of the above complex with
O
(

{\displaystyle {\mathcal {O}}(-n-1)}
. For

Orlov's reconstruction theorem
If
X
{\displaystyle X}
is a smooth projective variety with ample (anti-)canonical sheaf and there is an equivalence of derived categories
F
:
D
b
(
X
)
→
D
b
(
Y
)
{\displaystyle F:D^{b}(X)\to D^{b}(Y)}
, then there is an isomorphism of the underlying varieties.
= Sketch of proof
=The proof starts out by analyzing two induced Serre functors on
D
b
(
Y
)
{\displaystyle D^{b}(Y)}
and finding an isomorphism between them. It particular, it shows there is an object
ω
Y
=
F
(
ω
X
)
{\displaystyle \omega _{Y}=F(\omega _{X})}
which acts like the dualizing sheaf on
Y
{\displaystyle Y}
. The isomorphism between these two functors gives an isomorphism of the set of underlying points of the derived categories. Then, what needs to be check is an ismorphism
F
(
ω
X
⊗
k
)
≅
ω
Y
⊗
k
{\displaystyle F(\omega _{X}^{\otimes k})\cong \omega _{Y}^{\otimes k}}
, for any
k
∈
N
{\displaystyle k\in \mathbb {N} }
, giving an isomorphism of canonical rings
A
(
X
)
=
⨁
k
=
0
∞
H
0
(
X
,
ω
X
⊗
k
)
≅
⨁
k
=
0
∞
H
0
(
Y
,
ω
Y
⊗
k
)
{\displaystyle A(X)=\bigoplus _{k=0}^{\infty }H^{0}(X,\omega _{X}^{\otimes k})\cong \bigoplus _{k=0}^{\infty }H^{0}(Y,\omega _{Y}^{\otimes k})}
If
ω
Y
{\displaystyle \omega _{Y}}
can be shown to be (anti-)ample, then the proj of these rings will give an isomorphism
X
→
Y
{\displaystyle X\to Y}
. All of the details are contained in Dolgachev's notes.
= Failure of reconstruction
=This theorem fails in the case
X
{\displaystyle X}
is Calabi-Yau, since
ω
X
≅
O
X
{\displaystyle \omega _{X}\cong {\mathcal {O}}_{X}}
, or is the product of a variety which is Calabi-Yau. Abelian varieties are a class of examples where a reconstruction theorem could never hold. If
X
{\displaystyle X}
is an abelian variety and
X
^
{\displaystyle {\hat {X}}}
is its dual, the Fourier–Mukai transform with kernel
P
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {P}}}
, the Poincare bundle, gives an equivalence
F
M
P
:
D
b
(
X
)
→
D
b
(
X
^
)
{\displaystyle FM_{\mathcal {P}}:D^{b}(X)\to D^{b}({\hat {X}})}
of derived categories. Since an abelian variety is generally not isomorphic to its dual, there are derived equivalent derived categories without isomorphic underlying varieties. There is an alternative theory of tensor triangulated geometry where we consider not only a triangulated category, but also a monoidal structure, i.e. a tensor product. This geometry has a full reconstruction theorem using the spectrum of categories.
= Equivalences on K3 surfaces
=K3 surfaces are another class of examples where reconstruction fails due to their Calabi-Yau property. There is a criterion for determining whether or not two K3 surfaces are derived equivalent: the derived category of the K3 surface
D
b
(
X
)
{\displaystyle D^{b}(X)}
is derived equivalent to another K3
D
b
(
Y
)
{\displaystyle D^{b}(Y)}
if and only if there is a Hodge isometry
H
2
(
X
,
Z
)
→
H
2
(
Y
,
Z
)
{\displaystyle H^{2}(X,\mathbb {Z} )\to H^{2}(Y,\mathbb {Z} )}
, that is, an isomorphism of Hodge structure. Moreover, this theorem is reflected in the motivic world as well, where the Chow motives are isomorphic if and only if there is an isometry of Hodge structures.
= Autoequivalences
=One nice application of the proof of this theorem is the identification of autoequivalences of the derived category of a smooth projective variety with ample (anti-)canonical sheaf. This is given by
Auteq
(
D
b
(
X
)
)
≅
(
Pic
(
X
)
⋊
Aut
(
X
)
)
×
Z
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Auteq} (D^{b}(X))\cong (\operatorname {Pic} (X)\rtimes \operatorname {Aut} (X))\times \mathbb {Z} }
Where an autoequivalence
F
{\displaystyle F}
is given by an automorphism
f
:
X
→
X
{\displaystyle f:X\to X}
, then tensored by a line bundle
L
∈
Pic
(
X
)
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {L}}\in \operatorname {Pic} (X)}
and finally composed with a shift. Note that
Aut
(
X
)
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Aut} (X)}
acts on
Pic
(
X
)
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Pic} (X)}
via the polarization map,
g
↦
g
∗
(
L
)
⊗
L
−
1
{\displaystyle g\mapsto g^{*}(L)\otimes L^{-1}}
.
Relation with motives
The bounded derived category
D
b
(
X
)
{\displaystyle D^{b}(X)}
was used extensively in SGA6 to construct an intersection theory with
K
(
X
)
{\displaystyle K(X)}
and
G
r
γ
K
(
X
)
⊗
Q
{\displaystyle Gr_{\gamma }K(X)\otimes \mathbb {Q} }
. Since these objects are intimately relative with the Chow ring of
X
{\displaystyle X}
, its chow motive, Orlov asked the following question: given a fully-faithful functor
F
:
D
b
(
X
)
→
D
b
(
Y
)
{\displaystyle F:D^{b}(X)\to D^{b}(Y)}
is there an induced map on the chow motives
f
:
M
(
X
)
→
M
(
Y
)
{\displaystyle f:M(X)\to M(Y)}
such that
M
(
X
)
{\displaystyle M(X)}
is a summand of
M
(
Y
)
{\displaystyle M(Y)}
? In the case of K3 surfaces, a similar result has been confirmed since derived equivalent K3 surfaces have an isometry of Hodge structures, which gives an isomorphism of motives.
Derived category of singularities
On a smooth variety there is an equivalence between the derived category
D
b
(
X
)
{\displaystyle D^{b}(X)}
and the thick full triangulated
D
perf
(
X
)
{\displaystyle D_{\operatorname {perf} }(X)}
of perfect complexes. For separated, Noetherian schemes of finite Krull dimension (called the ELF condition) this is not the case, and Orlov defines the derived category of singularities as their difference using a quotient of categories. For an ELF scheme
X
{\displaystyle X}
its derived category of singularities is defined as
D
s
g
(
X
)
:=
D
b
(
X
)
/
D
perf
(
X
)
{\displaystyle D_{sg}(X):=D^{b}(X)/D_{\text{perf}}(X)}
for a suitable definition of localization of triangulated categories.
= Construction of localization
=Although localization of categories is defined for a class of morphisms
Σ
{\displaystyle \Sigma }
in the category closed under composition, we can construct such a class from a triangulated subcategory. Given a full triangulated subcategory
N
⊂
T
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {N}}\subset {\mathcal {T}}}
the class of morphisms
Σ
(
N
)
{\displaystyle \Sigma ({\mathcal {N}})}
,
s
{\displaystyle s}
in
T
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {T}}}
where
s
{\displaystyle s}
fits into a distinguished triangle
X
→
s
Y
→
N
→
X
[
+
1
]
{\displaystyle X{\xrightarrow {s}}Y\to N\to X[+1]}
with
X
,
Y
∈
T
{\displaystyle X,Y\in {\mathcal {T}}}
and
N
∈
N
{\displaystyle N\in {\mathcal {N}}}
. It can be checked this forms a multiplicative system using the octahedral axiom for distinguished triangles. Given
X

]
{\displaystyle Y{\xrightarrow {s'}}Z\to N'\to Y[+1]}
where
N
,
N

∈
N
{\displaystyle N,N'\in {\mathcal {N}}}
, then there are distinguished triangles

{\displaystyle X\to Z\to M\to X[+1]}
N

M

→
N
[

1
]
{\displaystyle N\to M\to N'\to N[+1]}
where
M
∈
N
{\displaystyle M\in {\mathcal {N}}}
since
N
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {N}}}
is closed under extensions. This new category has the following properties
It is canonically triangulated where a triangle in
T
/
N
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {T}}/{\mathcal {N}}}
is distinguished if it is isomorphic to the image of a triangle in
T
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {T}}}
The category
T
/
N
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {T}}/{\mathcal {N}}}
has the following universal property: any exact functor
F
:
T

T
′
{\displaystyle F:{\mathcal {T}}\to {\mathcal {T}}'}
where
F
(
N
)
≅
0
{\displaystyle F(N)\cong 0}
where
N
∈
N
{\displaystyle N\in {\mathcal {N}}}
, then it factors uniquely through the quotient functor
Q
:
T
→
T
/
N
{\displaystyle Q:{\mathcal {T}}\to {\mathcal {T}}/{\mathcal {N}}}
, so there exists a morphism
F
~

{\displaystyle {\tilde {F}}:{\mathcal {T}}/{\mathcal {N}}\to {\mathcal {T}}'}
such that
F

{\displaystyle {\tilde {F}}\circ Q\simeq F}
.
= Properties of singularity category
=If
X
{\displaystyle X}
is a regular scheme, then every bounded complex of coherent sheaves is perfect. Hence the singularity category is trivial
Any coherent sheaf
F
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {F}}}
which has support away from
Sing
(
X
)
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Sing} (X)}
is perfect. Hence nontrivial coherent sheaves in
D
s
g
(
X
)
{\displaystyle D_{sg}(X)}
have support on
Sing
(
X
)
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Sing} (X)}
.
In particular, objects in
D
s
g
(
X
)
{\displaystyle D_{sg}(X)}
are isomorphic to
F
[

k
]
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {F}}[+k]}
for some coherent sheaf
F
{\displaystyle {\mathcal {F}}}
.
= Landau–Ginzburg models
=Kontsevich proposed a model for Landau–Ginzburg models which was worked out to the following definition: a Landau–Ginzburg model is a smooth variety
X
{\displaystyle X}
together with a morphism
W
:
X
→
A
1
{\displaystyle W:X\to \mathbb {A} ^{1}}
which is flat. There are three associated categories which can be used to analyze the D-branes in a Landau–Ginzburg model using matrix factorizations from commutative algebra.
Associated categories
With this definition, there are three categories which can be associated to any point

{\displaystyle \operatorname {Pair} _{w_{0}}(W)}
, and a triangulated category

There is also a shift functor

D-brane category
Using the construction of
D
B
w
0
(
W
)
{\displaystyle DB_{w_{0}}(W)}
we can define the category of D-branes of type B on
X
{\displaystyle X}
with superpotential
W
{\displaystyle W}
as the product category
D
B
(
W
)
=
∏
w
∈
A
1
D
B
w
0
(
W
)
.
{\displaystyle DB(W)=\prod _{w\in \mathbb {A} _{1}}DB_{w_{0}}(W).}
This is related to the singularity category as follows: Given a superpotential
W
{\displaystyle W}
with isolated singularities only at
0
{\displaystyle 0}
, denote
X
0
=
W
−
1
(
0
)
{\displaystyle X_{0}=W^{-1}(0)}
. Then, there is an exact equivalence of categories
D
B
w

(
W

≅
D
s
g
(
X

)
{\displaystyle DB_{w_{0}}(W)\cong D_{sg}(X_{0})}
given by a functor induced from cokernel functor
Cok
{\displaystyle \operatorname {Cok} }
sending a pair
P
¯
↦
Coker
(
p
1
)
{\displaystyle {\overline {P}}\mapsto \operatorname {Coker} (p_{1})}
. In particular, since
X
{\displaystyle X}
is regular, Bertini's theorem shows
D
B
(
W
)
{\displaystyle DB(W)}
is only a finite product of categories.

=Knörrer periodicity
There is a Fourier-Mukai transform
Φ
Z
{\displaystyle \Phi _{Z}}
on the derived categories of two related varieties giving an equivalence of their singularity categories. This equivalence is called Knörrer periodicity. This can be constructed as follows: given a flat morphism
f
:
X
→
A
1
{\displaystyle f:X\to \mathbb {A} ^{1}}
from a separated regular Noetherian scheme of finite Krull dimension, there is an associated scheme
Y
=
X
×
A
2
{\displaystyle Y=X\times \mathbb {A} ^{2}}
and morphism
g
:
Y
→
A
1
{\displaystyle g:Y\to \mathbb {A} ^{1}}
such that
g
=
f
+
x
y
{\displaystyle g=f+xy}
where
x
y
{\displaystyle xy}
are the coordinates of the
A
2
{\displaystyle \mathbb {A} ^{2}}
-factor. Consider the fibers
X
0
=
f
−
1
(
0
)
{\displaystyle X_{0}=f^{-1}(0)}
,
Y
0
=
g
−
1
(
0
)
{\displaystyle Y_{0}=g^{-1}(0)}
, and the induced morphism
x
:
Y
0
→
A
1
{\displaystyle x:Y_{0}\to \mathbb {A} ^{1}}
. And the fiber
Z
=
x
−
1
(
0
)
{\displaystyle Z=x^{-1}(0)}
. Then, there is an injection
i
:
Z
→
Y
0
{\displaystyle i:Z\to Y_{0}}
and a projection
q
:
Z
→
X
0
{\displaystyle q:Z\to X_{0}}
forming an
A
1
{\displaystyle \mathbb {A} ^{1}}
-bundle. The Fourier-Mukai transform
Φ

(
⋅

=
R
i
∗
q
∗
(

{\displaystyle \Phi _{Z}(\cdot )=\mathbf {R} i_{*}q^{*}(\cdot )}
induces an equivalence of categories
D
s
g
(
X
0
)
→
D
s
g
(
Y
0
)
{\displaystyle D_{sg}(X_{0})\to D_{sg}(Y_{0})}
called Knörrer periodicity. There is another form of this periodicity where
x
y
{\displaystyle xy}
is replaced by the polynomial
x
2
+
y
2
{\displaystyle x^{2}+y^{2}}
. These periodicity theorems are the main computational techniques because it allows for a reduction in the analysis of the singularity categories.

{\displaystyle W=z_{0}^{n}+z_{1}^{2}+\cdots +z_{2k}^{2}}
, then the only fiber singular fiber of

{\displaystyle W}

. Over the algebra
A

{\displaystyle A=\mathbb {C} [z]/(z^{n})}
there are indecomposable objects

=
A

z
i
{\displaystyle V_{i}=\operatorname {Coker} (A{\xrightarrow {z^{i}}}A)=A/z^{i}}
whose morphisms can be completely understood. For any pair
i
,
j
{\displaystyle i,j}
there are morphisms
α
j
i
:
V
i
→
V
j
{\displaystyle \alpha _{j}^{i}:V_{i}\to V_{j}}
where
for
i
≥
j
{\displaystyle i\geq j}
these are the natural projections
for
i
<
j
{\displaystyle i
these are multiplication by
z
j
−
i
{\displaystyle z^{j-i}}
where every other morphism is a composition and linear combination of these morphisms. There are many other cases which can be explicitly computed, using the table of singularities found in Knörrer's original paper.
