Brane transport provides a way to realize functors between the categories of B-branes of different phases in gauged linear sigma model (GLSM). When appropriately designed, these functors induce derived equivalence between Calabi–Yau manifolds. In some cases, brane transport can also be used to extract the homological projective dual (HPD) of certain projective embeddings. We describe the GLSMs realizing derived equivalence between different geometries via brane transport with emphasis on the nonabelian models, and how to construct the GLSMs where brane transport gives rise to the embedding of HPD category into the derived category of universal hyperplane section. The latter gives rise to an explanation of the relationship between GLSM and HPD, and also a noncommutative geometric interpretation to HPD.
