Abstract
We construct a full exceptional Lefschetz collection on the spinor 15-fold consisting of a connected component of the space of orthogonal 6-dimensional subspaces of a 12-dimensional complex vector space, isotropic with respect of a fixed non-degenerate quadratic form. The collection is made of 2 twists of a 4-item block and 8 twists of a 3-item block, confirming a conjecture of Kuznetsov and Smirnov. We speculate that a similar collection might work for the Freudenthal E7-variety.
