Abstract: Given a quiver (directed graph) embedded in a topological space, one can consider the algebra of directed paths up to homotopy. Conversely, given a certain type of algebra, I will construct a quiver and a topological space which recovers this algebra by the above procedure. These constructions induce an equivalence between the derived category of the algebra and a certain subcategory of the derived category of sheaves on the topological space. As applications, I will recover some examples of homological mirror symmetry for Berglund-Hubsch-Krawitz mirrors and for toric varieties following work of Bondal and Fan-Lui-Treumann-Zaslow.
