The derived contraction algebra (1903.12156v2)

Published 28 Mar 2019 in math.AG

Abstract: Using Braun-Chuang-Lazarev's derived quotient, we enhance the contraction algebra of Donovan-Wemyss to an invariant valued in differential graded algebras. Given an isolated contraction $X \to X_\mathrm{con}$ of an irreducible rational curve $C$ to a point $p$, we show that its derived contraction algebra controls the derived noncommutative deformations of $C$. We use dg singularity categories to prove that, when $X$ is smooth, the derived contraction algebra recovers the geometry of $X_\mathrm{con}$ complete locally around $p$, establishing a positive answer to a derived version of a conjecture of Donovan and Wemyss. When $X \to X_\mathrm{con}$ is a simple threefold flopping contraction, it is known that the Bridgeland-Chen flop-flop autoequivalence of $Db(X)$ is a `noncommutative twist' around the contraction algebra. We show that the derived contraction algebra controls an analogous autoequivalence in more general settings, and in particular for partial resolutions of Kleinian singularities.
