Integrating symplectic stacks

Shifted symplectic stacks, introduced by Pantev, Toën, Vaquie, and Vezzosi, are a natural generalization of symplectic manifolds in derived algebraic geometry. The word `shifted' here refers to cohomological shift, which can naturally occur in the derived setting: after all, the tangent space is now not a vector space, but a complex. Several classes of interesting moduli stacks carry shifted simplectic structures.

In my talk (based on a joint project with T.Pantev and B.Toën), I will present a way to generate shifted symplectic stacks. Informally, it involves integration along a (compact oriented) topological manifold X: starting with a family of shifted symplectic stacks over X, we produce a new stack of sections of this family, and equip it with a symplectic structure via an appropriate version of the Poincaré duality.

Degenerations of flag varieties and subdivisions of generalized permutahedra

We study the initial degenerations of the type-A flag varieties, and show how they are related to flag matroid strata and subdivisions of flag matroid polytopes. As applications, we give a complete proof of a conjecture of Keel and Tevelev on log canonical compactifications of moduli spaces of hyperplanes in projective space in general position, and study the Chow quotient of the complete flag variety by the diagonal torus of the projective linear group. This is based on joint work with Olarte and Luber.
