On window theorem for categorical Donaldson-Thomas theories on local surfaces and its applications

Abstract

In this paper, we prove a window theorem for categorical Donaldson-Thomas theories on local surfaces as an analogue of window theorem for GIT quotient stacks. We give two applications of our main result. The first one is a proof of wall-crossing equivalences of DT categories for one dimensional stable sheave on local surfaces, under some technical condition on strictly semistable sheaves. The second one is to show the existence of fully-faithful functors from categorical PT theories to categorical MNOP theories, when the curve class is reduced. These results indicate categorifications of wall-crossing formulas of numerical DT invariants, and also regarded as d-critical analogue of D/K conjecture in birational geometry.
