Partial Desingularizations Arising from Non-Commutative Algebras

Let X be a singular affine normal variety with coordinate ring R and assume that there is an R-order admitting a stability structure such that the scheme of relevant semistable representations is smooth, then we construct a partial desingularization of X with classifiable remaining singularities. In dimension 3 this explains the omnipresence of conifold singularities in partial desingularizations of quotient singularities. In higher dimensions we have a small list of singularity types generalizing the role of the conifold singularity.

First Steps towards Hyper-desingularization through Brauer-Severi Varieties

Given a Cayley-Hamilton smooth order A in a central simple algebra $Σ$, we determine the flat locus of the Brauer-Severi fibration of the smooth order. Moreover, we give a classification of all (reduced) central singularities where the flat locus differs from the Azumaya locus and show that the fibers over the flat, non-Azumaya points near these central singularities can be described as fibered products of graphs of projection maps, thus generalizing an old result of Artin on the fibers of the Brauer-Severi fibration over a ramified point. Finally, we show these fibers are also toric quiver varieties and use this fact to compute their cohomology.

Isolated singularities, smooth orders and Auslander regularity

In this note we prove that a smooth order satisfying the reverse geometric engineering of singularities conditions in stringtheory (in any compactifying dimension) is Auslander regular. Moreover, we classify the etale local structure of smooth orders over an isolated central singularity.
