A category of kernels for equivariant factorizations. II: Further implications (Q741492)

The authors develop the categorical framework of Morita products of differential graded categories and their relation with semi--orthogonal decompositions, with the aim to apply them to two particular examples of differential graded categories of factorizations: those constructed from - bounded above complexes of finitely generated projective left modules over a smooth, commutative finitely-generated algebra graded over a finitely generated Abelian group with bounded cohomology, and - bounded below complexes of injective, quasicoherent, G-equivariant sheaves with bounded and coherent cohomology. The main target is to combine the Morita description of categories of factorizations with a generalization of Orlov's theorem [\textit{D. Orlov}, Prog. Math. 270, 503--531 (2009; Zbl 1200.18007)] after \textit{A. Căldăraru} and \textit{J. Tu} [New York J. Math. 19, 305--342 (2013; Zbl 1278.18022)] and \textit{V. A. Lunts} and \textit{D. O. Orlov} [J. Am. Math. Soc. 23, No. 3, 853--908 (2010; Zbl 1197.14014)] improvement, to obtain new semi-orthogonal decompositions and exceptional collections for derived categories of coherent sheaves. As an illustration of these ideas, the examples of weighted Fermat hypersurfaces are analyzed in detail. These examples pop up again concluding the paper, where the authors relate the previously described categorical background to the generation time of differential graded categories and their Rouquier dimension, and prove several conjectures of Orlov about it.
