Some metric properties of spaces of stability conditions
We show that, under mild conditions, the space of numerical Bridgeland
stability conditions Stab(T) on a triangulated category T is complete. In
particular the metric on a full component of Stab(T) for which the central
charges factor through a finite rank quotient of the Grothendieck group K(T) is
complete. As an example, we compute the metric on the space of numerical
stability conditions on a smooth complex projective curve of genus greater than
one, and show that in this case the quotient Stab(T)/C by the natural action of
the complex numbers is isometric to the upper half plane equipped with half the
hyperbolic metric.
We also make two observations about the way in which the heart changes as we
move through the space of stability conditions. Firstly, hearts of stability
conditions in the same component of the space of stability conditions are
related by finite sequences of tilts. Secondly, if each of a convergent
sequence of stability conditions has the same heart then the heart of the
limiting stability condition is obtained from this by a right tilt.Comment: 10 page
Contractible stability spaces and faithful braid group actions
We prove that any `finite-type' component of a stability space of a
triangulated category is contractible. The motivating example of such a
component is the stability space of the Calabi--Yau- category
associated to an ADE Dynkin quiver. In addition to
showing that this is contractible we prove that the braid group
acts freely upon it by spherical twists, in particular
that the spherical twist group is isomorphic to
. This generalises Brav-Thomas' result for the
case. Other classes of triangulated categories with finite-type components in
their stability spaces include locally-finite triangulated categories with
finite rank Grothendieck group and discrete derived categories of finite global
dimension.Comment: Final version, to appear in Geom. Topo
WHEN ARE THERE ENOUGH PROJECTIVE PERVERSE SHEAVES?
AbstractLet X be a topologically stratified space, p be any perversity on X and k be a field. We show that the category of p-perverse sheaves on X, constructible with respect to the stratification and with coefficients in k, is equivalent to the category of finite-dimensional modules over a finite-dimensional algebra if and only if X has finitely many strata and the same holds for the category of local systems on each of these. The main component in the proof is a construction of projective covers for simple perverse sheaves.</jats:p
