The Harder-Narasimhan system in quantum groups and cohomology of quiver moduli
نویسنده
چکیده
Methods of Harder and Narasimhan from the theory of moduli of vector bundles are applied to moduli of quiver representations. Using the Hall algebra approach to quantum groups, an analog of the Harder-Narasimhan recursion is constructed inside the quantized enveloping algebra of a KacMoody algebra. This leads to a canonical orthogonal system, the HN system, in this algebra. Using a resolution of the recursion, an explicit formula for the HN system is given. As an application, explicit formulas for Betti numbers of the cohomology of quiver moduli are derived, generalizing several results on the cohomology of quotients in ’linear algebra type’ situations.

Framed quiver moduli, cohomology, and quantum groups
Framed quiver moduli parametrize stable pairs consisting of a quiver representation and a map to a fixed graded vector space. Geometric properties and explicit realizations of framed quiver moduli for quivers without oriented cycles are derived, with emphasis on their cohomology. Their use for quantum group constructions is discussed.
متن کاملStratifications for Moduli of Sheaves and Moduli of Quiver Representations
We study the relationship between two stratifications on parameter spaces for coherent sheaves and for quiver representations: a stratification by Harder–Narasimhan types and a stratification arising from the geometric invariant theory construction of the associated moduli spaces of semistable objects. For quiver representations, both stratifications coincide, but this is not quite true for she...
متن کاملNotions of Purity and the cohomology of Quiver-moduli
We explore several variations of the notion of purity for the action of Frobenius on schemes defined over finite fields. In particular, we study how these notions are preserved under certain natural operations like quotients for principal bundles and also geometric quotients for reductive group actions. We then apply these results to study the cohomology of quiver moduli. We prove that a natura...
متن کاملMorse Theory of the Moment Map for Representations of Quivers
The main results of this manuscript concern the Morse theory associated to the norm-square of a Kähler moment map f = ‖Φ − α‖2 on the space of representations Rep(Q,v) of a quiver; these are the first steps in a larger research program concerning the hyperkähler analogue of the well-known Kirwan surjectivity theorem in symplectic geometry. The first main result is that, although ‖Φ − α‖2 is not...
متن کاملCohomology of quiver moduli, functional equations, and integrality of Donaldson-Thomas type invariants
A system of functional equations relating the Euler characteristics of moduli spaces of stable representations of quivers and the Euler characteristics of (Hilbert scheme-type) framed versions of quiver moduli is derived. This is applied to wall-crossing formulas for the Donaldson-Thomas type invariants of M. Kontsevich and Y. Soibelman, in particular confirming their integrality.
