چکیده

The geometric small property (Borho-MacPherson [BM]) of projective morphisms implies a description of their singularities in terms of intersection homology. In this paper we solve the smallness problem raised by Nakajima [N8, N6] for certain resolutions of quiver varieties [N8] (analogs of the Springer resolution) : for Kirillov-Reshetikhin modules of simply-laced quantum affine algebras, we characterize explicitly the Drinfeld polynomials corresponding to the small resolutions. We use an elimination theorem for monomials of Frenkel-Reshetikhin q-characters that we establish for non necessarily simply-laced quantum affine algebras. We also refine results of [He4] and extend the main result to general simply-laced quantum affinizations, in particular to quantum toröıdal algebras (double affine quantum algebras). 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary 17B37, Secondary 14L30, 81R50, 82B23, 17B67. PROBLÈME DE PETITESSE POUR LES ALGÈBRES AFFINES QUANTIQUES ET LES VARIÉTÉS CARQUOIS RÉSUMÉ. La propriété géométrique de petitesse (Borho-MacPherson [BM]) des morphismes projectifs implique une description de leurs singularités en termes d’homologie d’intersection. Dans cet article nous résolvons le problème de petitesse posé par Nakajima [N8, N6] pour certaines résolutions de variétés carquois [N8] (analogues de la résolution de Springer) : pour les modules de Kirillov-Reshetikhin des algèbres affines quantiques simplement lacées, nous caractérisons explicitement les polynômes de Drinfeld correspondant aux résolutions petites. Nous utilisons un théorème d’élimination pour les monômes des q-caractères de Frenkel-Reshetikhin, que nous établissons pour les algèbres affines quantiques non nécessairement simplement lacées. Nous raffinons également des résultats de [He4] et étendons le résultat principal aux affinisées quantiques générales simplement lacées, en particulier aux algèbres toröıdales quantiques (algèbres quantiques doublement affines).

t–ANALOGS OF q–CHARACTERS OF QUANTUM AFFINE ALGEBRAS OF TYPE

We compute t–analogs of q–characters of all l–fundamental representations of the quantum affine algebras of type E (1) 6 , E (1) 7 , E (1) 8 by a supercomputer. In particular, we prove the fermionic formula for Kirillov-Reshetikhin modules conjectured by Hatayama et al. [6] for these classes of representations. We also give explicitly the monomial realization of the crystal of the corresponding...

QUIVER VARIETIES AND t–ANALOGS OF q–CHARACTERS OF QUANTUM AFFINE ALGEBRAS

Let us consider a specialization of an untwisted quantum affine algebra of type ADE at a nonzero complex number, which may or may not be a root of unity. The Grothendieck ring of its finite dimensional representations has two bases, simple modules and standard modules. We identify entries of the transition matrix with special values of “computable” polynomials, similar to Kazhdan-Lusztig polyno...

Non-commutative Symplectic Geometry, Quiver Varieties, and Operads

Quiver varieties have recently appeared in various different areas of Mathematics such as representation theory of Kac-Moody algebras and quantum groups, instantons on 4-manifolds, and resolutions Kleinian singularities. In this paper, we show that many important affine quiver varieties, e.g., the Calogero-Moser space, can be imbedded as coadjoint orbits in the dual of an appropriate infinite d...
