Boij–Söderberg theory characterizes syzygies of graded modules and sheaves on projective space. This paper continues earlier work with Sam, extending the theory to the setting of $\text{GL}_{k}$-equivariant modules and sheaves on Grassmannians. Algebraically, we study modules over a polynomial ring in $kn$ variables, thought of as the entries of a $k\times n$ matrix. We give equivariant analogs of two important features of the ordinary theory: the Herzog–Kühl equations and the pairing between Betti and cohomology tables. As a necessary step, we also extend previous results, concerning the base case of square matrices, to cover complexes other than free resolutions. Our statements specialize to those of ordinary Boij–Söderberg theory when $k=1$. Our proof of the equivariant pairing gives a new proof in the graded setting: it relies on finding perfect matchings on certain graphs associated to Betti tables and to spectral sequences. As an application, we construct three families of extremal rays on the Betti cone for $2\times 3$ matrices.
We use supernatural bundles to build $\mathbf{GL}$-equivariant resolutions supported on the diagonal of $\mathbb{P}^{n}\times \mathbb{P}^{n}$, in a way that extends Beilinson’s resolution of the diagonal. We thus obtain results about supernatural bundles that largely parallel known results about exceptional collections. We apply this construction to Boij–Söderberg decompositions of cohomology tables of vector bundles, yielding a proof of concept for the idea that those positive rational decompositions should admit meaningful categorifications.
A recent result of Eisenbud–Schreyer and Boij–Söderberg proves that the Betti diagram of any graded module decomposes as a positive rational linear combination of pure diagrams. When does this numerical decomposition correspond to an actual filtration of the minimal free resolution? Our main result gives a sufficient condition for this to happen. We apply it to show the non-existence of free resolutions with some plausible-looking Betti diagrams and to study the semigroup of quiver representations of the simplest ‘wild’ quiver.
