Derived symmetries for crepant resolutions of hypersurfaces

Will Donovan – 22 May 2024

Given a singularity with a crepant resolution, a symmetry of the derived category of coherent sheaves on the resolution may often be constructed using the formalism of spherical functors. I will introduce this, and discuss work in progress on general constructions of such symmetries for hypersurface singularities. This builds on previous results with Segal, and is inspired by work of Bodzenta-Bondal.
