Combinatorial and geometric methods in representation theory

Descripción del proyecto

Una novedosa investigación sobre la teoría de la representación de las álgebras y el álgebra homológica

Con frecuencia, la investigación de temas o procesos complejos y difíciles de medir y analizar se lleva a cabo mediante indicadores, la observación indirecta o la extrapolación representativa de la señal en cuestión. En el campo de las matemáticas, la teoría de la representación permite descifrar estructuras algebraicas complejas a través de sus acciones sobre otras más simples. Con la ayuda de las Acciones Marie Skłodowska-Curie, los investigadores del proyecto COMBGEOREP están desarrollando métodos homológicos y geométricos para estudiar las representaciones de las álgebras mediante la creación de vínculos con la combinatoria, la teoría de la representación de grupos y la geometría algebraica y simpléctica.

Objetivo

Representation theory is the study of complex algebraic structures such as groups and rings via their actions on simpler algebraic structures, such as vector spaces. The naturality of this idea of studying complex problems by ‘linearisation’ means that representation theory has strong interactions with many areas of mathematics. This project lies in the area of representation theory of algebras and homological algebra. The overall goal is to develop homological and geometric methods to study representations of algebras creating links with combinatorics, group representation theory, algebraic and symplectic geometry. The principal research objectives are: 1) Use the geometry of Riemann surfaces to study skewed-gentle algebras and their tau-tilting theory. 2) Develop cluster-theoretic techniques in negative Calabi-Yau (CY) triangulated categories by: a) constructing negative CY cluster categories; b) developing the theory of simple-minded systems in stable module categories. The geometry of surfaces provides equivalences between derived categories of gentle algebras and Fukaya categories in symplectic and algebraic geometry. The extension of these methods to skewed-gentle algebras should significantly broaden the scope of this interaction between algebra and geometry. The theory of negative CY categories is considerably underdeveloped despite their occurrence in important contexts such as stable module categories in group representation theory. Cluster theory provides powerful combinatorial methods for positive CY categories which initial work by Coelho Simões suggests is amenable to development in the negative CY setting. The project will be carried out by Raquel Coelho Simões under the supervision of Jan Grabowski at Lancaster University. It will serve to establish Coelho Simões as a research leader in her field through work in a highly active research area at an institution sitting in a broad network of universities with major strength in the field.
