Title: The BGG correspondence for toric varieties

Abstract: The Bernstein-Gel'fand-Gel'fand (BGG) correspondence gives an equivalence between the derived category of projective space and the singularity category of an exterior algebra. Recent work of mine with Daniel Erman ("Tate resolutions on toric varieties") suggested what a generalization of this theorem for toric varieties might look like. I will talk about ongoing work toward proving such a generalization.
