The minimal model program for b-log canonical divisors and applications

We discuss the minimal model program for b-log varieties, which is a pair of a variety and a b-divisor, as a natural generalization of the minimal model program for ordinary log varieties. We show that the main theorems of the log MMP work in the setting of the b-log MMP. If we assume that the log MMP terminates, then so does the b- log MMP. Furthermore, the b-log MMP includes both the log MMP and the equivariant MMP as special cases. There are various interesting b-log varieties arising from different objects, including the Brauer pairs, or "non-commutative algebraic varieties which are finite over their centres". The case of toric Brauer pairs is discussed in further detail.

Homological properties of a certain noncommutative Del Pezzo surface

Recently, de Thanhoffer de Volcsey and Van den Bergh showed that Grothendieck groups of "noncommutative Del Pezzo surfaces" with an exceptional sequence of length 4 are isomorphic to one of three types, the third one not coming from a commutative Del Pezzo surface. In this paper, we adapt the theory of noncommutative $\mathbb{P}^1$-bundles as appearing in the work of Van den Bergh and Nyman to produce a sheaf $\mathbb{Z}$-algebra whose associated Proj has an exceptional sequence of length 4 for which the Gram matrix is of this third type. We show that this noncommutative scheme is noetherian and describe its local structure through the use of our generalized preprojective algebras.

Some generalizations of Preprojective algebras and their properties

In this note we consider a notion of relative Frobenius pairs of commutative rings $S/R$. To such a pair, we associate an $\mathbb{N}$-graded $R$-algebra $Π_R(S)$ which has a simple description and coincides with the preprojective algebra of a quiver with a single central node and several outgoing edges in the split case. If the rank of $S$ over $R$ is 4 and $R$ is noetherian, we prove that $Π_R(S)$ is itself noetherian and finite over its center and that each $Π_R(S)_d$ is finitely generated projective. We also prove that $Π_R(S)$ is of finite global dimension if $R$ and $S$ are regular.

Calabi-Yau Deformations and Negative Cyclic Homology

In this paper we relate the deformation theory of Ginzburg Calabi-Yau algebras to negative cyclic homology. We do this by exhibiting a DG-Lie algebra that controls this deformation theory and whose homology is negative cyclic homology. We show that the bracket induced on negative cyclic homology coincides with Menichi's string topology bracket. We show in addition that the obstructions against deforming Calabi-Yau algebras are annihilated by the map to periodic cyclic homology. In the commutative we show that our DG-Lie algebra is homotopy equivalent to $(T^{\operatorname{poly}}[[u]],-u \operatorname{div})$.

Some new examples of non-degenerate quiver potentials

We prove a technical result which allows us to establish the non-degeneracy of potentials on quivers in some previously unknown or non-obvious cases. Our result applies to certain McKay quivers and also to potentials derived from geometric helices on Del Pezzo surfaces.
