Representation Varieties of Stacks and Trace Maps

RESUMO

We define a derived stack $\mathscr{Rep}_n(X)$ which generalizes the assignment $A\leadsto \operatorname{Rep}_n(A)$ to an algebra of its derived $GL_n$-representation variety of arXiv:1112.1449 from algebras $A$ to perfect stacks $X$ over characteristic 0 fields. In the case of a quasi-projective classical scheme $X$, we show that $\mathscr{Rep}_n(X)$ admits a subfunctor $\operatorname{Quot}^{n,\text{fr}}_{\mathscr{O}_X^n}(X)\subset \mathscr{Rep}_n(X)$, which is in fact represented by a derived scheme almost of finite type. We further construct a Fourier-Mukai integral transform between the derived categories of quasi-coherent sheaves on $X$ and $\operatorname{Quot}^{n,\text{fr}}_{\mathscr{O}_X^n}(X)$ which induces a trace map at the level of Hochschild homology generalizing the trace morphism constructed in arXiv:1112.1449 (for finitely presented commutative algebras). We show that the subfunctor $\operatorname{Quot}^{n,\text{fr}}_{\mathscr{O}_X^n}(X)$ is a derived enhancement of the framed locus of the Quot scheme of points and that this derived scheme is a $GL_n$-torsor over the stack of coherent length $n$ torsion sheaves. Hence, this stack is an analog of the derived character stack for quasi-projective schemes, and we show that for smooth, Calabi-Yau $X$, it inherits a shifted symplectic structure in the sense of arXiv:1111.3209 from the one constructed in arXiv:1812.11913 on the moduli stack of perfect complexes with proper support. This structure is shown to give a generalization of the classical symplectic structure on character varieties of surfaces of genus 1 constructed by Goldman \cite{gold}.
