Daniel Nakano: Tensor Triangular Geometry and Applications

Tensor triangular geometry as introduced by Balmer is a powerful idea which can be used to extract the ambient geometry from a given tensor triangulated category. In this talk I will present a general setting for a compactly generated tensor triangulated category which enables one to classify thick tensor ideals and the spectrum Spc. Several examples will be presented where we show how to construct a Zariski spaces and demonstrate how these topological spaces governs the tensor triangulated geometry for various categories. These results represent joint work with B. Boe and J. Kujawa.
