Ekedahl's Equivalence Explained

Abstract

Ekedahl's theory relates diagonal complexes to \(F\)-gauges, but turning this equivalence into explicit calculations requires careful control of its constructions. These notes explain the equivalence and clarify the generators-and-relations definition of \(\rmt\). At each finite level, we construct bounded projective resolutions of bounded coherent gauge complexes by finite sums of the standard generators. Morita equivalence expresses \(\rmt\) as a tensor product functor. Comparing the constructions across levels yields an exact fully faithful embedding of the diagonal heart into \(\Ch(R)\). Finally, we compute three distinct domino types arising from abelian threefolds that are all supergeneral.

The canonical class and Chern character operators on Hilbert schemes of points

Let $X$ be a smooth projective complex surface. We obtain explicit formulas for the Chern character operators on the Hilbert schemes of points $X^{[n]}$ in terms of Nakajima operators, determining in particular the coefficients of the terms involving the canonical class $K_X$ and its square. Consequently, the cohomology ring structure of the Hilbert scheme is determined. As an application, we give an alternative proof of the action of the affine Yangian $Y_{t_1,t_2}(\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}}_1)$ on the cohomological Fock space $\mathbb{H}_X = \bigoplus_{n\geq 0} H^*(X^{[n]},\mathbb{Q})$.

Characterization of $\mathbb{A}^1$-Milnor numbers of small rank

The $\mathbb{A}^1$-Milnor number of a polynomial map is a quadratic enrichment of the classical Milnor number, defined as the local $\mathbb{A}^1$-Brouwer degree of the gradient. We study which elements of the Grothendieck-Witt ring of nondegenerate symmetric bilinear forms arise as $\mathbb{A}^1$-Milnor numbers. Over fields of characteristic not $2$, $3$, or $5$, we show that every element of the Grothendieck-Witt ring of rank at most $7$ that is a local $\mathbb{A}^1$-Brouwer degree is also an $\mathbb{A}^1$-Milnor number. Unlike for local $\mathbb{A}^1$-Brouwer degrees, however, in general not all $\mathbb{A}^1$-Milnor numbers can be obtained from two-variable polynomials. Over an arbitrary field of characteristic not $2$, $3$, $5$, or $7$, we characterize the elements of the Grothendieck-Witt ring of rank at most $8$ that are $\mathbb{A}^1$-Milnor numbers of two-variable polynomials. Over subfields of $\mathbb{R}$, this implies that there are local $\mathbb{A}^1$-Brouwer degrees of ranks $4$, $6$, and $8$ that are not the $\mathbb{A}^1$-Milnor number of a two-variable polynomial. We also prove that under a mild hypothesis one can reduce the number of variables of a polynomial while preserving the $\mathbb{A}^1$-Milnor number up to multiplication by a unit.

A degree-linear upper bound for the Pólya exponent of forms with fixed arity

Let $P = \sum_ω a_ωx^ω$ be a degree $d$ homogeneous polynomial in $x_0, \dots, x_n$ with real coefficients. Pólya showed that, if $P$ is strictly positive on the standard $n$-simplex, then $(x_0 + \cdots + x_n)^M P$ has strictly positive coefficients for all $M \gg 0$. The least such $M$ is known as the \emph{Pólya exponent} of $P$. de Klerk-Laurent-Parrilo showed that the Pólya exponent is $O(d^2) P^{(0)}_{\max}/λ(P)$, where $P^{(0)}_{\max} := \max_ωa_ω/\binom{d}ω$ and $λ(P)$ is the infimum of $P$ on the standard simplex. Pólya's Positivstellensatz is a consequence of the classical approximation of the multivariate hypergeometric distribution by the multinomial distribution, as was already implicitly known to de Klerk-Laurent-Sun. By applying known estimates of this approximation from probability theory, we obtain a different $O_n(d) L(P)/λ(P)$ upper bound of the Pólya exponent, where $L(P) := \max |a_ω|/\binom{d}ω$. An example shows that $O_n(d)$ is tight.
