Virtual Fundamental Classes of the Vanishing Loci of Cosections
摘要
Let X be a Deligne-Mumford stack equipped with a perfect obstruction theory \(\phi :\mathbb {E} \to \mathbb {L}_X\) . By Kiem and Li (J. Am. Math. Soc. 26(4), 1025–1050 (2013)), if the obstruction sheaf \(Ob_X=h^1(\mathbb {E} ^\vee )\) admits a cosection \(\sigma :Ob_X\to {\mathcal O}_X\) , the virtual fundamental class \([X]^{\mathrm {vir}} \) of X is localized to a class \([X]^{\mathrm {vir}} _\sigma \) supported in the zero locus \(X(\sigma )\) of \(\sigma ^\vee \) . In many natural examples, \(X(\sigma )\) is an interesting space on its own and we may ask if there is a natural induced perfect obstruction theory of \(X(\sigma )\) whose virtual fundamental class equals \([X]^{\mathrm {vir}} _\sigma \) . In this expository article, we discuss two possible approaches, by global complex Kuranishi chart and by derived algebraic geometry.
