Deformations of schemes and derived categories

Samuel Moore
(Oxford)
Abstract

How much does the derived ($\infty$-)category of a scheme remember? In this talk, I will consider this question in the context of deformation theory and make precise the close relationship between the deformation theory of a scheme and its derived category. Along the way, I will also introduce some basics of derived deformation theory and pay special attention to mixed and positive characteristic phenomena. This talk is based on my recent work https://arxiv.org/abs/2512.24347.

You know those annoying social media films where a mic is shoved in front of a bunch of students and they're asked questions that have nothing to do with their studies or their lives, hoping they say something vaguely funny or interesting that might get a billion views on TikTok?
