Title
Singularity categories via the derived quotient
Author
Abstract
Given a noncommutative partial resolution A = End(R)(R circle plus M) of a Gorenstein singularity R, we show that the relative singularity category Delta(R) (A) of Kalck-Yang is controlled by a certain connective dga A/(L)AeA, the derived quotient of Braun-Chuang-Lazarev. We think of A/ (L)AeA as a kind of `derived exceptional locus' of the partial resolution A, as we show that it can be thought of as the universal dga fitting into a suitable recollement. This theoretical result has geometric consequences. When R is an isolated hypersurface singularity, it follows that the singularity category Dsg (R) is determined completely by A/(L)AeA, even when A has infinite global dimension. Thus our derived contraction algebra classifies threefold flops, even those X -> Spec(R) where X has only terminal singularities. This gives a solution to the strongest form of the derived Donovan-Wemyss conjecture, which we further show is the best possible classification result in this singular setting. (C) 2021 Elsevier Inc.
