King's Conjecture and Birational Geometry

Abstract: We state and prove a birational realization of King's Conjecture for a category glued from the derived categories of all birational models in the GKZ fan of a toric variety. Our perspective extends ideas of Beilinson and Bondal to all semiprojective toric varieties. As a result, we obtain new and birationally-uniform applications to resolutions of the diagonal, categorical and noncommutative resolutions, monads, Frobenius generation, and window categories.
