Abstract: Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and let A be a finitely generated k−algebra. The Nori - Hilbert scheme of A, parameterizes left ideals of codimension n in A, and it is well known to be smooth when A is formally smooth. In this paper we will study the Nori - Hilbert scheme for 2−Calabi Yau algebras. The main examples of these are surface group algebras and preprojective algebras. For the former we show that the Nori-Hilbert scheme is smooth for n=1 only, while for the latter we show that the smooth components that contain simple representations are precisely those that only contain simple representation. Under certain conditions we can generalize this last statement to arbitrary 2−Calabi Yau algebras.


Summary: Let \(k\) be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and let \(A\) be a finitely generated \(k\)-algebra. The Nori-Hilbert scheme of \(A\), \(\mathrm{Hilb}^n_A\), parameterizes left ideals of codimension \(n\) in \(A\). It is well known that \(\mathrm{Hilb}^n_A\) is smooth when \(A\) is formally smooth. { }In this paper we will study \(\mathrm{Hilb}^n_A\) for 2-Calabi-Yau algebras. Important examples include the group algebra of the fundamental group of a compact orientable surface of genus \(g\), and preprojective algebras. For the former, we show that the Nori-Hilbert scheme is smooth only for \(n=1\), while for the latter we show that a component of \(\mathrm{Hilb}^n_A\) containing a simple representation is smooth if and only if it only contains simple representations. Under certain conditions, we generalize this last statement to arbitrary 2-Calabi-Yau algebras.
