 "Semi-orthogonal decompositions of moduli spaces"

Abstract: Let C be a smooth projective curve of genus at least 2 and let N be the moduli space of stable rank 2 vector bundles on C of with fixed odd determinant. We construct a semi-orthogonal decomposition of the bounded derived category of N conjectured by Narasimhan and by Belmans, Galkin and Mukhopadhyay. It has two blocks for each i-th symmetric power of C for i = 0,...,g−2 and one block for the (g − 1)-st symmetric power. 

The proof contains two parts. Semi-orthogonality, proved jointly with Sebastian Torres, relies on hard vanishing theorems for vector bundles on the moduli space of stable pairs. The second part, elimination of the phantom, requires analysis of ``weaving patterns'’ in derived categories.
