Abstract:
I will explain (1) that stability conditions for general
Gorenstein terminal 3-fold flops can be described as a covering map
over something reasonable, and (2) the autoequivalence group is much
larger than you might naively expect! Basically, part of the
description of stability conditions comes from the movable cone, and
its image under tensoring by line bundles. Alas, there is much
more. This extra stuff is not immediately "birational" information,
and it is a bit mysterious, but it does have a very natural
noncommutative interpretation. In the process of this, I'll
describe some of the new hyperplane arrangements that arise, which
visually are very beautiful. I will also explain some applications
including: autoequivalences, a description of monodromy on the SKMS,
and some applications to curve counting. This is a summary of
various joint work with Will Donovan, Yuki Hirano, and Osamu Iyama.
