Homological projective duality conjecture for the Pfaffian-Grassmannian pair

At least 19 years old · documented by

Let G\mathbf{G} be the Grassmannian in its Plücker embedding, let Pf\mathbf{Pf} be its projective-dual Pfaffian variety, and write P∗\mathbf{P}^* for the dual projective space. A Lefschetz decomposition is a semi-orthogonal decomposition of the derived category into blocks with successive twists. Homological projective duality conjecture. There exists a Lefschetz decomposition of Dcohb(G)\mathbf{D}_{\mathsf{coh}}^b(\mathbf{G}) and a smooth variety Pf‾→P∗\overline{\mathbf{Pf}}\to\mathbf{P}^*, possibly understood in an extended sense such as a non-commutative scheme, mapping to Pf\mathbf{Pf} and homologically projectively dual to G\mathbf{G} with respect to this decomposition. Furthermore, Theorem~ is a direct application of the main result of~. The conjecture proposes the homological-projective-dual geometric object needed to explain the derived equivalences between smooth linear sections of the Grassmannian and Pfaffian varieties; the supplied text gives no evidence that this formulation has been resolved.
