Abstract

Let VV be a complex vector space on which a finite group GG acts by linear transformations. Let W=VVW = V \oplus V^* be the sum of VV with its dual VV^*. We prove that if the quotient W/GW/G admits a smooth crepant resolution, then the subgroup GAutVG \subset Aut V is generated by complex reflections. We also obtain some results on the structure of smooth crepant resolutions of the quotients W/GW/G, where WW is a symplectic vector space, and GAutWG \subset Aut W is a finite group of symplectic linear transformations of the vector space WW.
