Stability conditions on a non-compact Calabi-Yau threefold (Q881648): Difference between revisions

The author describes an open subset of the stability manifold of the non-compact Calabi-Yau threefold which is the total space of the canonical bundle of \({\mathbb P}^2\). Let \(X\) be the total space of the canonical bundle \({\mathcal O}_{{\mathbb P}^2}(-3)\) of the projective plane. The definition of the stability condition was given by \textit{T. Bridgeland} [Ann. Math. (2) 166, No. 2, 317--345 (2007; Zbl 1137.18008); preprint \url{arXiv:math/0212237}] and it was shown there that the set of stability conditions Stab\((D)\) of a triangulated category \(D\) is a manifold. The author considers the affine braid group \(G\) with presentation \[ G = \langle t_0, t_1, t_2 | \;t_i t_j t_i = t_j t_i t_j \;\forall \;i,j\rangle \] and associates to every \(g\) in \(G\) a region \(D(g)\) in the stability manifold. Moreover there exists a connected open subset \(\text{Stab}^0(X)\) of the stability manifold which can be written as the disjoint union of the regions \(D(g)\) for \(g\) varying in \(G\). The stability conditions in \(D(g)\) for a given \(g\) all have the same heart, which is equivalent to a category of nilpotent representations of a quiver. On the other hand, the author considers the semisimple Frobenius structure arising from quantum cohomology of \({\mathbb P}^2\) as studied by \textit{B. Dubrovin} [in: The Painlevé property. One century later. CRM Series in Mathematical Physics. 287--412 (1999; Zbl 1026.34095)] and finds that some matrices arising from the quiver description of the hearts coincide with the ones given by monodromy transformations arising from the Frobenius structure. This leads the author to conjecture a correspondence between a connected submanifold of \(\text{Stab}^0(X)\) and a manifold arising from the Frobenius structure, which should be an equivalence on a dense open subset. Some evidence is given to this conjecture.
