Abstract
Let be an elliptic surface with integral fibers and a section. The Hilbert scheme fibers over . We construct a commutative group scheme over the entire base that embeds as an open subscheme of the Hilbert scheme, such that its action on itself extends to the entirety of . We show that the action is -regular in the sense of Ng\^o. Using the derived McKay correspondence, we construct an exact autoequivalence of whose kernel is a maximal Cohen-Macaulay sheaf on the fiber product. We show that this Fourier-Mukai transform intertwines with our group action, i.e. theorem of the square holds. We also discuss the case without a section using the theory of Tate-Shafarevich twists.
