Title: On noncommutative cubic surfaces and their moduli

Abstract:

This is based on joint work with Shinnosuke Okawa and Kazushi Ueda. The 
zero loci of a cubic equations in three dimensional projective space are 
pretty cool! As varieties, they may be deformed in four directions. 
However, they may also be deformed as "noncommutative" spaces in an 
extra four dimensions. Here we realise these noncommutative deformations 
as certain quiver algebras. We then go on to study their moduli and 
compare them to existing theories of noncommutative cubic surfaces. Time 
permitting we will discuss generalisations of these ideas to other del 
Pezzo surfaces.
