Abstract

We first prove that the K-theoretic Hall algebra of a preprojective algebra of affine type is isomorphic to the positive half of a quantum toroidal quantum group. An essential step consists to deform the K-theoretic Hall algebra so that the deformation is torsion free over some polynomial subalgebra. Next, we compare super toroidal quantum groups of type A with K-theoretic Hall algebras of quivers with potential, which are defined using the Grothendieck groups of categories of singularities of some Landau-Ginzburg models.
