AbstractWe introduce the idea of a geometric categorical Lie algebra action on derived categories of coherent sheaves. The main result is that such an action induces an action of the braid group associated to the Lie algebra. The same proof shows that strong categorical actions in the sense of Khovanov–Lauda and Rouquier also lead to braid group actions. As an example, we construct an action of Artin’s braid group on derived categories of coherent sheaves on cotangent bundles to partial flag varieties.

Original Motivation

AbstractRickard complexes in the context of categorified quantum groups can be used to construct braid group actions. We define and study certain natural deformations of these complexes which we call curved Rickard complexes. One application is to obtain deformations of link homologies which generalize those of Batson–Seed [3] [J. Batson and C. Seed, A link-splitting spectral sequence in Khovanov homology, Duke Math. J. 164 2015, 5, 801–841] and Gorsky–Hogancamp [E. Gorsky and M. Hogancamp, Hilbert schemes and y-ification of Khovanov–Rozansky homology, preprint 2017] to arbitrary representations/partitions. Another is to relate the deformed homology defined algebro-geometrically in [S. Cautis and J. Kamnitzer, Knot homology via derived categories of coherent sheaves IV, colored links, Quantum Topol. 8 2017, 2, 381–411] to categorified quantum groups (this was the original motivation for this paper).

Affine Type

We study stability conditions on the Calabi–Yau-[Formula: see text] categories associated to an affine type [Formula: see text] quiver which can be constructed from certain meromorphic quadratic differentials with zeroes of order [Formula: see text]. We follow Ikeda’s work to show that this moduli space of quadratic differentials is isomorphic to the space of stability conditions quotient by the spherical subgroup of the autoequivalence group. We show that the spherical subgroup is isomorphic to the braid group of affine type [Formula: see text] based on the Khovanov–Seidel–Thomas method.

AbstractWe construct categorical braid group actions from 2-representations of a Heisenberg algebra. These actions are induced by certain complexes which generalize spherical (Seidel–Thomas) twists and are reminiscent of the Rickard complexes defined by Chuang–Rouquier. Conjecturally, one can relate our complexes to Rickard complexes using categorical vertex operators.

Sufficient And Necessary Condition

We focus on a class of filtered quantum algebras [Formula: see text] which are both coideal subalgebras of quantum groups and Poincaré–Birkhoff–Witt (PBW)-deformations of their negative parts. In [Y. Xu and S. Yang, PBW-deformations of quantum groups, J. Algebra 408 (2014) 222–249], Xu and Yang proved that braid group actions on [Formula: see text] introduced by Kolb and Pellegrini can be used to define root vectors and construct PBW bases for [Formula: see text]. In this present paper, for each element [Formula: see text] in the Weyl group of [Formula: see text] we first introduce a subspace [Formula: see text] and a subalgebra [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] can be considered as an analogue of quantum Schubert cell algebra. Then a sufficient and necessary condition on [Formula: see text] is given for [Formula: see text]. Moreover, we prove that [Formula: see text] if and only if [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] can be generated by the same simple reflections. Finally, we characterize the algebra [Formula: see text] which can be obtained via an iterated Ore extension. Our results show that quantum groups and their PBW-deformations really have some different properties.
