Title: Stability conditions in families
Abstract We develop a theory of Bridgeland stability conditions and moduli spaces of semistable objects for a family of varieties. Our approach is based on and generalizes previous work by Abramovich–Polishchuk, Kuznetsov, Lieblich, and Piyaratne–Toda. Our notion includes openness of stability, semistable reduction, a support property uniformly across the family, and boundedness of semistable objects. We show that such a structure exists whenever stability conditions are known to exist on the fibers. Our main application is the generalization of Mukai’s theory for moduli spaces of semistable sheaves on K3 surfaces to moduli spaces of Bridgeland semistable objects in the Kuznetsov component associated to a cubic fourfold. This leads to the extension of theorems by Addington–Thomas and Huybrechts on the derived category of special cubic fourfolds, to a new proof of the integral Hodge conjecture, and to the construction of an infinite series of unirational locally complete families of polarized hyperkähler manifolds of K3 type. Other applications include the deformation-invariance of Donaldson–Thomas invariants counting Bridgeland stable objects on Calabi–Yau threefolds, and a method for constructing stability conditions on threefolds via degeneration.  more » « less

    Abstract Using the algebraic criterion proved by Bandiera, Manetti and Meazzini, we show the formality conjecture for universally gluable objects with linearly reductive automorphism groups in the bounded derived category of a K3 surface. As an application, we prove the formality conjecture for polystable objects in the Kuznetsov components of Gushel–Mukai threefolds and quartic double solids.

    We develop a new method for analyzing moduli problems related to the stack of pure coherent sheaves on a polarized family of projective schemes. It is an infinite-dimensional analogue of Geometric Invariant Theory. We apply this to two familiar moduli problems: the stack of Λ-modules and the stack of pairs. In both examples, we construct a Θ-stratification of the stack, defined in terms of a polynomial numerical invariant, and we construct good moduli spaces for the open substacks of semistable points. One of the essential ingredients is the construction of higher-dimensional analogues of the affine Grassmannian for the moduli problems considered.

    Abstract Deligne [9] showed that every K3 surface over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic admits a lift to characteristic 0. We show the same is true for a twisted K3 surface. To do this, we study the versal deformation spaces of twisted K3 surfaces, which are particularly interesting when the characteristic divides the order of the Brauer class. We also give an algebraic construction of certain moduli spaces of twisted K3 surfaces over $${\operatorname {Spec}}\ \textbf {Z}$$ and apply our deformation theory to study their geometry. As an application of our results, we show that every derived equivalence between twisted K3 surfaces in positive characteristic is orientation preserving.

    Motivated by the study of the growth rate of the number of geodesics in flat surfaces with bounded lengths, we study generalizations of such problems for K3 surfaces. In one gener- alization, we give a result regarding the upper bound on the asymptotics of the number of classes of irreducible special Lagrangians in K3 surfaces with bounded period integrals. In another generalization, we give the exact leading term in the asymptotics of the number of Mukai vectors of semistable coherent sheaves on algebraic K3 surfaces with bounded central charges, with respect to generic Bridgeland stability conditions.

    Abstract We construct singular quartic double fivefolds whose Kuznetsov component admits a crepant categorical resolution of singularities by a twisted Calabi–Yau threefold. We also construct rational specializations of these fivefolds where such a resolution exists without a twist. This confirms an instance of a higher-dimensional version of Kuznetsov’s rationality conjecture and of a noncommutative version of Reid’s fantasy on the connectedness of the moduli of Calabi–Yau threefolds.
