Derived categories of Burniat surfaces and exceptional collections

We construct an exceptional collection $\Upsilon$ of maximal possible length 6 on any of the Burniat surfaces with $K_X^2=6$, a 4-dimensional family of surfaces of general type with $p_g=q=0$. We also calculate the DG algebra of endomorphisms of this collection and show that the subcategory generated by this collection is the same for all Burniat surfaces. The semiorthogonal complement $\mathcal A$ of $\Upsilon$ is an "almost phantom" category: it has trivial Hochschild homology, and K_0(\mathcal A)=\bZ_2^6.Comment: 15 pages, 1 figure; further remarks expande

Fermionic construction of partition functions for two-matrix models and perturbative Schur function expansions

A new representation of the 2N fold integrals appearing in various two-matrix models that admit reductions to integrals over their eigenvalues is given in terms of vacuum state expectation values of operator products formed from two-component free fermions. This is used to derive the perturbation series for these integrals under deformations induced by exponential weight factors in the measure, expressed as double and quadruple Schur function expansions, generalizing results obtained earlier for certain two-matrix models. Links with the coupled two-component KP hierarchy and the two-component Toda lattice hierarchy are also derived.Comment: Submitted to: "Random Matrices, Random Processes and Integrable Systems", Special Issue of J.

Change in stability of solid solution at radiation influence

Stability of solid solution at radiation influence has been investigated. Expressions for diffusion streams of binary alloy components, which specify the existence of temperature interval in which the phenomenon of ascending diffusion of elements is observed, were received. Vacancy characters of diffusion, configuration entropy, and potential energy of atomic bonds were considered at derivation. The ascending diffusion testifies to stability infringement of homogeneous solid solution - stratification. Influence of radiation is connected with increase in concentration of vacancies which changes the energy of atomic bonds and, simultaneously, accelerates diffusion processes. The condition of alloy stability with regard to stratification at radiating influence was obtaine

Fermionic construction of partition function for multi-matrix models and multi-component TL hierarchy

We use $p$-component fermions $(p=2,3,...)$ to present $(2p-2)N$-fold integrals as a fermionic expectation value. This yields fermionic representation for various $(2p-2)$-matrix models. Links with the $p$-component KP hierarchy and also with the $p$-component TL hierarchy are discussed. We show that the set of all (but two) flows of $p$-component TL changes standard matrix models to new ones.Comment: 16 pages, submitted to a special issue of Theoretical and Mathematical Physic

Geometric Phantom Categories

In this paper we give a construction of phantom categories, i.e. admissible triangulated subcategories in bounded derived categories of coherent sheaves on smooth projective varieties that have trivial Hochschild homology and trivial Grothendieck group. We also prove that these phantom categories are phantoms in a stronger sense, namely, they have trivial K-motives and, hence, all their higher K-groups are trivial too.Comment: LaTeX, 18 page

Bound, virtual and resonance SS-matrix poles from the Schr\"odinger equation

A general method, which we call the potential $S$-matrix pole method, is developed for obtaining the $S$-matrix pole parameters for bound, virtual and resonant states based on numerical solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation. This method is well-known for bound states. In this work we generalize it for resonant and virtual states, although the corresponding solutions increase exponentially when $r\to\infty$. Concrete calculations are performed for the $1^+$ ground and the $0^+$ first excited states of $^{14}\rm{N}$, the resonance $^{15}\rm{F}$ states ($1/2^+$, $5/2^+$), low-lying states of $^{11}\rm{Be}$ and $^{11}\rm{N}$, and the subthreshold resonances in the proton-proton system. We also demonstrate that in the case the broad resonances their energy and width can be found from the fitting of the experimental phase shifts using the analytical expression for the elastic scattering $S$-matrix. We compare the $S$-matrix pole and the $R$-matrix for broad $s_{1/2}$ resonance in ${}^{15}{\rm F}$Comment: 14 pages, 5 figures (figures 3 and 4 consist of two figures each) and 4 table

Derived Categories of Coherent Sheaves and Triangulated Categories of Singularities

In this paper we establish an equivalence between the category of graded D-branes of type B in Landau-Ginzburg models with homogeneous superpotential W and the triangulated category of singularities of the fiber of W over zero. The main result is a theorem that shows that the graded triangulated category of singularities of the cone over a projective variety is connected via a fully faithful functor to the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on the base of the cone. This implies that the category of graded D-branes of type B in Landau-Ginzburg models with homogeneous superpotential W is connected via a fully faithful functor to the derived category of coherent sheaves on the projective variety defined by the equation W=0.Comment: 26 pp., LaTe

Semiorthogonal decompositions of derived categories of equivariant coherent sheaves

Let X be an algebraic variety with an action of an algebraic group G. Suppose X has a full exceptional collection of sheaves, and these sheaves are invariant under the action of the group. We construct a semiorthogonal decomposition of bounded derived category of G-equivariant coherent sheaves on X into components, equivalent to derived categories of twisted representations of the group. If the group is finite or reductive over the algebraically closed field of zero characteristic, this gives a full exceptional collection in the derived equivariant category. We apply our results to particular varieties such as projective spaces, quadrics, Grassmanians and Del Pezzo surfaces.Comment: 28 pages, uses XY-pi
