Nilpotent orbits and Hilbert schemes

Publication date: 31 January 2007

Abstract: We construct embeddings

m a t h c a l Y_{n, a u} o {H i l b}^{n} (S i g m a_{a u})

for each of the classical Lie algebras

g e r {s p}_{2 m} (C c)

,

g e r {s o}_{2 m} (C c)

, and

g e r {s o}_{2 m + 1} (C c)

. The space

m a t h c a l Y_{n, a u}

is the fiber over a point

a u i n g e r h / W

of the restriction of the adjoint quotient map

c h i : g e r g o g e r h / W

to a suitably chosen transverse slice of a nilpotent orbit. These embeddings were discovered for

g e r {s l}_{2 m} (C c)

by Ciprian Manolescu. They are related to the symplectic link homology of Seidel and Smith.
