Abstract: In the physicist's language, a brane in a hyperkahler manifold is a submanifold which is either complex or lagrangian with respect to three Kahler structures of the ambient manifold. By considering the fixed loci of certain involutions, we describe branes in Nakajima quiver varieties of all possible types. We then focus on the moduli space of framed torsion free sheaves on the projective plane, showing how the involutions considered act on sheaves, and proving the existence of branes in some cases.

Review text

Branes in the moduli space of Higgs bundles provide a connection between the geometric Langland program and mirror symmetry. In this work the authors contribute to the study of branes in other types of varieties, namely, they present a systematic study of the existence of branes in Nakajima quiver varieties. In section 2 is presented an overview of the construction of Nakajima quiver varieties, fixing the terminology and objects that will be needed further in the work. In section 3, a systematic method to construct branes of all possible types on Nakajima quiver varieties is obtained, by describing several types of involutions on these varieties. Finally, in section 4, the methods presented in section 3 are used to produce examples of non-empty branes in the moduli spaces of framed torsion free sheaves on the projective plane, which are particular cases of Nakajima quiver varieties.
