Lefschetz exceptional collections in $S_k$-equivariant categories of $(\mathbb{P}^n)^k$

Abstract

We consider the bounded derived category of $S_k$-equivariant coherent sheaves on $(\mathbb{P}^n)^k$. The goal of this paper is to construct in this category a rectangular Lefschetz exceptional collection when this is possible, or a minimal Lefschetz exceptional collection when a rectangular one does not exist. The main results of the paper include the construction of a rectangular Lefschetz exceptional collection in the case $k=3$ and in the case $n=1$ when $\mathrm{gcd}(n+1,k)=1$. We also construct minimal Lefschetz exceptional collection for $n=1$ and even $k$, and for $n=2$ and $k=3$.
