On auto-equivalences and complete derived invariants of gentle algebras

Abstract

We study triangulated categories which can be modeled by an oriented marked surface $\mathcal{S}$ and a line field $\eta$ on $\mathcal{S}$. This includes bounded derived categories of gentle algebras and -- conjecturally -- all partially wrapped Fukaya categories introduced by Haiden-Katzarkov-Kontsevich. We show that triangle equivalences between such categories induce diffeomorphisms of the associated surfaces preserving orientation, marked points and line fields up to homotopy. This shows that the pair $(\mathcal{S}, \eta)$ is a triangle invariant of such categories and prove that it is a complete derived invariant for gentle algebras of arbitrary global dimension. We deduce that the group of auto-equivalences of a gentle algebra is an extension of the stabilizer subgroup of $\eta$ in the mapping class group and a group, which we describe explicitely in case of triangular gentle algebras. We show further that diffeomorphisms associated to spherical twists are Dehn twists.

Quasi-Whittaker supermodules over Lie superalgebras

In this paper, we develop a general theory of quasi-Whittaker supermodules over Lie superalgebras induced from an arbitrary ideal. We determine the quasi-Whittaker vectors in universal supermodules, establish an irreducibility criterion, and classify several families of irreducible supermodules. The odd part produces a new irreducibility phenomenon absent from the Lie algebra setting. As applications, we determine all irreducible quasi-Whittaker supermodules over the $N=1$ super Schr\"odinger algebra and the $N=1$ $\frac{3}{2}$-conformal Galilei superalgebra, and over the complete spectrum-generating superalgebra in a special case.

Rankin--Selberg integrals of opposite conductor--one newforms

Let $F$ be a nonarchimedean local field of characteristic zero and let $n\geq2$. For $r=n,n+1$, let $\Pi_r$ be an irreducible tempered representation of ${\rm GL}_r(F)$ of conductor one and with trivial central character. We evaluate the Rankin--Selberg integral of opposite newforms in $\Pi_{n+1}\times \Pi_n$ explicitly and show that its central value is nonzero. As an application, this implies a case of Disegni--Zhang's conjecture on the nonvanishing of local relative characters.

Obstructions to Jacobi-Finiteness of Quivers with Potentials

We show that Jacobi-finite potentials need not exist on finite $2$-acyclic quivers. Our main tool is a matrix-valued Golod--Shafarevich--Vinberg inequality for quotients of completed path algebras by finitely many, possibly nonhomogeneous, topological relations. Applied to cyclic derivatives, it yields a potential-dependent obstruction to the finite-dimensionality of completed Jacobian algebras. We then construct a purely quiver-level criterion excluding every Jacobi-finite potential on a given quiver, and exhibit a family of quivers for which every potential has an infinite-dimensional Jacobian algebra.
