Kuznetsov–Shinder conjecture that D-equivalence implies L-equivalence
Kuznetsov–Shinder conjecture that D-equivalence implies L-equivalence
Let and be smooth projective simply connected varieties. Two varieties are -equivalent when there is a -linear exact equivalence of their bounded derived categories of coherent sheaves, and -equivalent when in for some positive integer , where .
Kuznetsov–Shinder conjecture. If and are -equivalent, then they are -equivalent:
The conjecture connects derived categories with motivic equivalence. It is refuted by the paper from which this statement is taken, which constructs a counterexample using moduli spaces of sheaves on K3 surfaces.
