A geometric adjoint ledger for the Fourier--Mukai transform #

KernelCorrespondence.lean assembles a Correspondence on Dᵇ(Coh) from three named contracts, and says in its own docstring that it makes no claim that the derived pushforward is right adjoint to the derived pullback. This file is the ledger for that claim, and for the two others a right adjoint of the transform needs.

FourierMukai/AdjointAssembly.lean says what those three are, abstractly: a right adjoint of pull, a right adjoint of the twist by K, and a right adjoint of push. Here each becomes a named class on Dᵇ(Coh), and geometricConstituentRightAdjoints assembles a ConstituentRightAdjoints (geometricCorrespondence X Y Z p q) K from exactly those and no others.

The three contracts, and what each is classically #

What this ledger produces, and what it still does not #

It produces ConstituentRightAdjoints, hence — by ConstituentRightAdjoints.adj — that the geometric transform is left adjoint to the composite q^! ⋙ (− ⊗ K^∨) ⋙ Rp_*. That composite is a functor Dᵇ(Coh Y) ⥤ Dᵇ(Coh X).

It does not produce a RightAdjointKernelData, because it does not show that composite is again a transform. AdjointAssembly takes that identification as an argument, and supplying it geometrically is the next ledger: it needs q^! decomposed as Lq^*(−) ⊗ ω_q[dim] and the tensor rearranged, which is the projection formula plus a dualizing object. Only then does the classical kernel P^∨ ⊗ p^*ω_X[dim X] appear. See the closing section.

Only the right side #

There is no mirror producing ConstituentLeftAdjoints. The left adjoint of Lp^* is the exceptional p_!, a different and much less standard object than anything above, and nothing in this repository asks for one. Filing a class for it would be a contract with no consumer — the shape this lane's reviews have attacked twice.

What this file does not assert #

Derived pullback is left adjoint to derived pushforward, supplied.

The Lp^* ⊣ Rp_* slot. KernelCorrespondence.lean names both functors as contracts but relates them not at all; this is the relation.

The hypothesis a caller discharging this is really asserting is the derived adjunction on bounded coherent derived categories — which classically needs f proper enough for Rf_* to preserve coherence, already the content of HasDerivedPushforward, plus the derived form of the sheaf-level adjunction.

Instances

    A dual for the kernel, supplied.

    The rigidity slot: (− ⊗^L K) has a right adjoint, and that right adjoint is again a twist by an object of the same category. Classically the object is K^∨ = R𝓗om(K, 𝒪) and the adjunction is tensor-hom together with the identification of the internal Hom out of K with a tensor by its dual — which needs K perfect.

    Asking for the adjoint in the form of a twist rather than as an arbitrary functor is the whole content: an arbitrary right adjoint of − ⊗^L K would be the internal R𝓗om(K, −), and that it is a tensor is exactly what perfectness buys.

    Instances

      A right adjoint of derived pushforward, supplied.

      The Grothendieck duality slot, Rf_* ⊣ f^!. Deliberately opaque: the class names the right adjoint and asserts nothing about its shape. The classical description f^!(−) ≅ Lf^*(−) ⊗ ω_f[dim] for a smooth proper f is a second obligation, and separating them is the point — the existence of the adjoint is what ConstituentRightAdjoints consumes, and the description is what a later ledger would need to turn the composite adjoint back into a transform.

      Instances

        The three constituent right adjoints, assembled from the ledger.

        Given the pullback/pushforward adjunction at p, a dual for the kernel K, and a right adjoint of pushforward along q, this is a genuine ConstituentRightAdjoints for the geometric correspondence — so ConstituentRightAdjoints.adj applies and the geometric transform is a left adjoint.

        This constructs no geometry. Every input is a hypothesis; the content is that these are exactly the inputs ConstituentRightAdjoints needs and there are no others. In particular note the two contracts that the correspondence itself does not ask for: HasDerivedPushforward p — pushforward along the pullback's morphism — and HasDerivedPullbackAdjunction p relating them.

        Instances For

          The geometric transform is a left adjoint, conditional on the ledger.

          The payoff of the assembly, and the first statement in this repository that a geometric Fourier--Mukai transform has an adjoint at all. It is still conditional on three supplied contracts; what it is not is conditional on an opaque adjunction between two transforms.

          The next ledger, and what is in it #

          What this file leaves undone is precisely the step ConstituentRightAdjoints.toRightAdjointKernelData takes as an argument: that the composite right adjoint q^! ⋙ (− ⊗ K^∨) ⋙ Rp_* is again a transform, namely the transform of the reversed correspondence geometricCorrespondence Y X Z q p with some kernel Q.

          Supplying that geometrically needs two things this repository does not have:

          Only once both are named does the classical dual kernel P^∨ ⊗ p^*ω_X[dim X] appear as Q, and only then does a geometric RightAdjointKernelData — and through KernelAutoequivalence.DualKernel.ofRightAdjointKernel, a geometric DualKernel — become available. Neither is stated here.
