Abstract

 3d mirror symmetry relates the geometry of dual pairs of algebraic symplectic stack and has served in as

a guiding principle for developments in representation theory. However, due to the lack of definitions, thus far only part of the subject has been mathematically accessible. In this talk, I will explain joint work with Ben Gammage and Aaron Mazel-Gee on formulation of abelian 3d mirror symmetry as an equivalence between a pair of 2-categories constructed from the algebraic and symplectic geometry, respectively, of Gale dual toric cotangent stacks.

In the simplest case, our theorem provides a spectral description of the 2-category of spherical functors -- i.e., perverse schobers on the affine line with singularities at the origin. We expect that our results can be extended from toric cotangent stacks to hypertoric varieties, which would provide a categorification of previous results on Koszul duality for hypertoric categories $\mathcal{O}$.
