Abstract

In this paper we study the tangent spaces of the smooth nested Hilbert scheme Hiln,n1 Hil{n,n-1} of points in the plane, and give a general formula for computing the Euler characteristic of a \TT2\TT^2-equivariant locally free sheaf on \Hiln,n1\Hil{n,n-1}. Applying our result to a particular sheaf, we conjecture that the result is a polynomial in the variables qq and tt with non-negative integer coefficients . We call this conjecturally positive polynomial as \textsl{the nested q,tq,t-Cat alan series}, for it has many conjectural properties similar to that of the q,tq,t -Catalan series.
