Title: NC-smooth algebroid thickenings for families of vector bundles and quiver representations
In his work on deformation quantization of algebraic varieties Kontsevich introduced the notion of algebroid as a certain generalization of a sheaf of algebras. We construct algebroids which are given locally by NC-smooth thickenings in the sense of Kapranov, over two classes of smooth varieties: the bases of miniversal families of vector bundles on projective curves, and the bases of miniversal families of quiver representations.  more » « less

    Abstract We show that, for any fixed weight, there is a natural system of Hodge sheaves, whose Higgs field has no poles, arising from a flat projective family of varieties parametrized by a regular complex base scheme, extending the analogous classical result for smooth projective families due to Griffiths. As an application, based on positivity of direct image sheaves, we establish a criterion for base spaces of rational Gorenstein families to be of general type. A key component of our arguments is centered around the construction of derived categorical objects generalizing relative logarithmic forms for smooth maps and their functorial properties.

    Chow rings of flag varieties have bases of Schubert cycles \sigma_u, indexed by permutations. A major problem of algebraic combinatorics is to give a positive combinatorial formula for the structure constants of this basis. The celebrated Littlewood-Richardson rules solve this problem for special products \sigma_u \cdot \sigma_v where u and v are p-Grassmannian permutations. Building on work of Wyser, we introduce backstable clans to prove such a rule for the problem of computing the product \sigma_u \cdot \sigma_v when u is p-inverse Grassmannian and v is q-inverse Grassmannian. By establishing several new families of linear relations among structure constants, we further extend this result to obtain a positive combinatorial rule for \sigma_u \cdot \sigma_v in the case that u is covered in weak Bruhat order by a p-inverse Grassmannian permutation and v is a q-inverse Grassmannian permutation.

    Hessenberg varieties H(X,H) form a class of subvarieties of the flag variety G/B, parameterized by an operator X and certain subspaces H of the Lie algebra of G. We identify several families of Hessenberg varieties in type A_{n−1} that are T -stable subvarieties of G/B, as well as families that are invariant under a subtorus K of T. In particular, these varieties are candidates for the use of equivariant methods to study their geometry. Indeed, we are able to show that some of these varieties are unions of Schubert varieties, while others cannot be such unions. Among the T-stable Hessenberg varieties, we identify several that are GKM spaces, meaning T acts with isolated fixed points and a finite number of one-dimensional orbits, though we also show that not all Hessenberg varieties with torus actions and finitely many fixed points are GKM. We conclude with a series of open questions about Hessenberg varieties, both in type A_{n−1} and in general Lie type.

    Abstract We give a simple and uniform proof of a conjecture of Haines–Richarz characterizing the smooth locus of Schubert varieties in twisted affine Grassmannians. Our method is elementary and avoids any representation theoretic techniques, instead relying on a combinatorial analysis of tangent spaces of Schubert varieties.

    Bott proved a strong vanishing theorem for sheaf cohomology on projective space, namely that the higher cohomology of every bundle of differential forms tensored with an ample line bundle is zero. This holds for toric varieties, but not for most other varieties. We classify the smooth Fano threefolds that satisfy Bott vanishing. There are many more than expected.
