A smooth compactification of spaces of stability conditions: the case of the $A_{n}$ -quiver

We propose a notion of multi-scale stability conditions with the goal of providing a smooth compactification of the quotient of the space of projectivized Bridgeland stability conditions by the group of autoequivalence. For the case of the 3CY category associated with the 𝐴𝑛-quiver, this goal is achieved by defining a topology and complex structure that relies on a plumbing construction. We compare this compactification to the multi-scale compactification of quadratic differentials and briefly indicate why even for the Kronecker quiver, this notion needs refinement to provide a full compactification.
