Derived categories of principal homogeneous spaces of abelian varieties

Abstract:

I will give a general introduction to derived equivalences between smooth projective varieties. Then, I will describe recent work on the problem of determining when when two principal homogeneous spaces for an abelian variety are derived equivalent, culminating in a precise description of when two smooth projective curves over a field of characteristic zero have equivalent bounded derived categories.
