Let $D$ be a smooth divisor on a non singular surface $S$. We compute Betti numbers of the relative Hilbert scheme of points of $S$ relative to $D$. In the case of $\PP^2$ and a line in it, we give an explicit set of generators and…

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety over $k$ such that $\bar X=X\otimes_k\bar k$ is cellular. We study torsion elements in the Chow ring $CH^*(X)$ which corresponds to $v_iy$ in the algebraic cobordism $\Omega^*(\bar X)$ where $0\not=y\in…

By using vector field techniques, we compute the ordinary and equivariant cohomology rings of Hilbert scheme of points in the projective plane in relation with that of a Grassmann variety.

We describe, for a few small examples, the Kauffman bracket skein algebra of a surface crossed with an interval. If the surface is a punctured torus the result is a quantization of the symmetric algebra in three variables (and an algebra…

We state several questions, and prove some partial results, about the Chow ring $A^\ast(X)$ of complete intersections in projective space. For one thing, we prove that if $X$ is a general Calabi-Yau hypersurface, the intersection product…

Let $k$ be a field and $x,y$ indeterminates over $k$. Let $R=k[x^a,x^{p_1}y^{s_1},\ldots,x^{p_t}y^{s_t},y^b] \subseteq k[x,y]$. We calculate the Hilbert polynomial of $(x^a,y^b)$. The multiplicity of this ideal provides part of a criterion…

We determine the Chow rings of the complex algebraic groups of the exceptional type E_6, E_7, and E_8, giving the explicit generators represented by the pull-back images of Schubert varieties of the corresponding flag varieties. This is a…

We compute rational equivariant Chow rings with respect to a torus of quiver moduli spaces. We derive a presentation in terms of generators and relations, use torus localization to identify it as a subring of the Chow ring of the fixed…

Consider a component of the Hilbert scheme whose general point corresponds to a degree d genus g smooth irreducible and nondegenerate curve in a projective variety X. We give lower bounds for the dimension of such a component when X is P^3,…

Hilbert schemes of suitable smooth, projective manifolds of low degree which are 3-fold scrolls over the Hirzebruch surface F_1 are studied. An irreducible component of the Hilbert scheme parametrizing such varieties is shown to be…

Let X be an algebraic projective variety in {\bf P}^n. Denote by {\cal C}_{\lambda} the space of all effective cycles on X whose homology class is \lambda \in H_{2p} (X,{\bf Z}). It is easy to show that {\cal C}_{\lambda} is an algebraic…

We investigate algebraicity properties of quotients of complex spaces by complex reductive Lie groups G. We obtain a projectivity result for compact momentum map quotients of algebraic G-varieties. Furthermore, we prove equivariant versions…

Closed subschemes in projective space with a fixed Hilbert polynomial are parametrized by a Hilbert scheme. We classify the smooth ones. We identify numerical conditions on a polynomial that completely determine when the Hilbert scheme is…

Let X be a smooth projective surface of irregularity 0. The Hilbert scheme of n points on X parameterizes zero-dimensional subschemes of X of length n. In this paper, we discuss general methods for studying the cone of ample divisors on the…

We compute the completion of the local ring of the Hilbert scheme of degree $n+1$ subschemes of $\mathbb{A}^n$ at the point corresponding to the ideal $\langle x_1,\ldots,x_n\rangle^2$, and describe the completion of the universal family.…

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…

The purpose of this short note is to study dominant rational maps from punctual Hilbert schemes of length $k>1$ of projective K3 surfaces $S$ containing infinitely many rational curves. Precisely, we prove that their image is necessarily…

The equivariant and ordinary cohomology rings of Hilbert schemes of points on the minimal resolution C^2//G for cyclic G are studied using vertex operator technique, and connections between these rings and the class algebras of wreath…
