Halpern-Leistner's spanning conjecture for Fano varieties

Less than 1 year old · traced to

Let XX be a Fano variety, let τ∈H2(X)\tau\in\mathrm{H}^2(X), and let S⊂C∗\mathscr{S}\subset\mathbf{C}^* be a sector. Let σ(\cEτ)\sigma(\cE_\tau) be the spectrum of the Euler operator \cEτ⋆τ(−)\cE_\tau\star_\tau(-), and write ∣σ(\cEτ)∣\lvert\sigma(\cE_\tau)\rvert for its underlying set. For a real number rr, define

FrHalg∙(X):={α∈Halg∙(X):log⁡∣\cZteiφτ(α)∣≤rt−1+o(t−1) as t→0}.F^r\mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{alg}}^\bullet(X):=\left\{\alpha\in\mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{alg}}^\bullet(X):\log\lvert\cZ_{te^{\mathtt{i}\varphi}}^\tau(\alpha)\rvert\leq rt^{-1}+o(t^{-1})\text{ as }t\to0\right\}.

Halpern-Leistner's spanning conjecture. For any Fano variety XX, there exist τ∈H2(X)\tau\in\mathrm{H}^2(X) and a sector S⊂C∗\mathscr{S}\subset\mathbf{C}^* such that, for every τ\tau-admissible phase φ\varphi with R>0eiφ⊂S\mathbf{R}_{>0}e^{\mathtt{i}\varphi}\subset\mathscr{S}, there is a quasi-convergent path σt,φτ\sigma_{t,\varphi}^\tau in Stab⁡(X)\operatorname{Stab}(X) for which, for every r=Re⁡(−λe−iφ)r=\operatorname{Re}(-\lambda e^{-\mathtt{i}\varphi}) with λ∈∣σ(\cEτ)∣\lambda\in\lvert\sigma(\cE_\tau)\rvert, the space FrHalg∙(X)F^r\mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{alg}}^\bullet(X) is spanned by Chern characters of limit semistable objects of σt,φτ\sigma_{t,\varphi}^\tau.

This conjecture is an interpretation of Halpern-Leistner's proposal connecting asymptotic quantum-connection growth with categorical decompositions. The asserted spanning property is open.
