We construct irrational irreducible components of the Hilbert scheme of points of affine n-dimensional space, for n at least 12. We start with irrational components of the Hilbert scheme of curves in P^3 and use methods developed by…
The usual Laurent expansion of the analytic tensors on the complex plane is generalized to any closed and orientable Riemann surface represented as an affine algebraic curve. As an application, the operator formalism for the $b-c$ systems…
We prove a closed formula expressing any multiplicative characteristic class evaluated on the tangent bundle of the Hilbert schemes of points on a non-compact simply-connected surface. As a corollary, we deduce a closed formula for the…
We give a simple direct proof (for the case of Hamiltonian circle actions with isolated fixed points) that Tolman and Weitsman's description of the kernel of the Kirwan map (in other words the sum of those equivariant cohomology classes…
We construct Sugawara operators for the quantum affine algebra of type $A$ in an explicit form. The operators are associated with primitive idempotents of the Hecke algebra and parameterized by Young diagrams. This generalizes a previous…
For a line bundle $L$ on a smooth projective surface $X$ and nonnegative integers $k_1, \ldots, k_N$, Okounkov \cite{Oko} introduced the reduced generating series $\big \langle {\rm ch}_{k_1}^{L} \cdots {\rm ch}_{k_N}^{L} \big \rangle'$ for…
Let $X$ be the projective plane, a Hirzebruch surface, or a general $K3$ surface. In this paper, we study the birational geometry of various nested Hilbert schemes of points parameterizing pairs of zero-dimensional subschemes on $X$. We…
For a finite subgroup $\Gamma\subset \mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ and $n\geq 1$, we construct the (reduced scheme underlying the) Hilbert scheme of $n$ points on the Kleinian singularity $\mathbb{C}^2/\Gamma$ as a Nakajima quiver variety for…
We consider the K-theory of the Hilbert scheme of points in the complex plane, which under McKay correspondence is isomorphic to the space of symmetric functions $\Lambda^n$. We prove a formula conjectured by Boissi\`ere for the…
When the quotient of a symplectic vector space by the action of a finite subgroup of symplectic automorphisms admits as a crepant projective resolution of singularities the Hilbert scheme of regular orbits of Nakamura, then there is a…
We study the geometry and topology of Hilbert schemes of points on the orbifold surface [C^2/G], respectively the singular quotient surface C^2/G, where G is a finite subgroup of SL(2,C) of type A or D. We give a decomposition of the…
We study a class of group actions on hyperk\"ahler manifolds which we call actions of linear type. If $M$ is a hyperk\"ahler manifold possessing such a $G$-action, the hyperk\"ahler Kirwan map is surjective if and only if the natural…
We describe points on Nakajima varieties and Weyl group actions on them via complexes of semisimple and projective modules over certain finite-dimensional algebras.
We investigate the Hilbert scheme of points on curves with n-fold singularities, that is curves that look locally around their singular points as the axis in an affine space. We describe the structure and number of its irreducible…
Using obstruction bundles, composition law and the localization formula, we compute certain 3-point genus-0 Gromov-Witten invariants of the Hilbert scheme of 3-points on the complex projective plane. Our results partially verify Ruan's…
We work out details of the extrinsic geometry for two Hilbert schemes of some contemporary interest: the Hilbert scheme of two points on the projective plane and the dense open set parametrizing non-planar clusters in the punctual Hilbert…
We construct Nakajima's quiver varieties of type A in terms of affine Grassmannians of type A. This gives a compactification of quiver varieties and a decomposition of affine Grassmannians into a disjoint union of quiver varieties.…
A W-algebra action is constructed on the equivariant Borel-Moore homology of the Hilbert scheme of points on a nonreduced plane in three dimensional affine space, identifying it to the vacuum W-module. This is based on a generalization of…
We show that the cohomology ring of Hilbert scheme of $n$-points in the affine plane is isomorphic to the coordinate ring of $\mathbb{G}_{m}$-fixed point scheme of the $n$-th symmetric product of $\mathbb{C}^{2}$ for a natural…
We develop the theory of integrable operators $\mathcal{K}$ acting on a domain of the complex plane with smooth boundary in analogy with the theory of integrable operators acting on contours of the complex plane. We show how the resolvent…
