Local-system conjecture for derived categories of GLSM phases

Let XβX_{\beta} be the phase associated with a VGIT parameter βLR\beta \in L^{\vee}_{\mathbb{R}}, and let FIPS denote the Fayet–Iliopoulos parameter space of the corresponding gauged linear sigma model. The derived category of the phase is Db(Xβ)D^b(X_{\beta}). GLSM local-system conjecture. There is an action of π1(FIPS)\pi_1(\operatorname{FIPS}) on Db(Xβ)D^b(X_{\beta}) for any phase XβX_{\beta}. This predicts the mathematically testable existence of the physicists' local system of categories over the FIPS, despite the fact that D-brane transport and the GLSM itself are not yet rigorous in general.
