Abstract: Let C be a smooth projective curve of genus 0. Let CB be the variety of complete flags in an n-dimensional vector space V. Given an (n1)-tuple alphainBN[I] of positive integers one can consider the space CQalpha of algebraic maps of degree alpha from C to CB. This space admits some remarkable compactifications CQaDlpha (Quasimaps), CQaLlpha (Quasiflags), CQaKlpha (Stable Maps) of CQalpha constructed by Drinfeld, Laumon and Kontsevich respectively. It has been proved that the natural map pi:CQaLlphaoCQaDlpha is a small resolution of singularities. The aim of the present note is to study the cohomology of Laumon's spaces or, equivalently, the Intersection Cohomology of Drinfeld's Quasimaps' spaces. We calculate the generating function PG(t) (``Poincar'e polynomial) of the direct sum and construct a natural action of the Lie algebra fraksln on this direct sum by some middle-dimensional correspondences between Quasiflags' spaces. We conjecture that this module is isomorphic to distributions on nilpotent cone supported at nilpotent subalgebra.
