On Knörrer Periodicity for Quadric Hypersurfaces in Skew Projective Spaces

Abstract

AbstractWe study the structure of the stable category $\text{}\underline{\mathsf{CM}}^{\mathbb{Z}}(S/(f))$ of graded maximal Cohen–Macaulay module over $S/(f)$ where $S$ is a graded ($\pm 1$)-skew polynomial algebra in $n$ variables of degree 1, and $f=x_{1}^{2}+\cdots +x_{n}^{2}$. If $S$ is commutative, then the structure of $\text{}\underline{\mathsf{CM}}^{\mathbb{Z}}(S/(f))$ is well known by Knörrer’s periodicity theorem. In this paper, we prove that if $n\leqslant 5$, then the structure of $\text{}\underline{\mathsf{CM}}^{\mathbb{Z}}(S/(f))$ is determined by the number of irreducible components of the point scheme of $S$ which are isomorphic to $\mathbb{P}^{1}$.
