La correspondance de McKay

In this paper we show that for any affine complete rational surface singularity there is a correspondence between the dual graph of the minimal resolution and the quiver of the endomorphism ring of the special CM modules. We thus call such an algebra the reconstruction algebra. As a consequence the derived category of the minimal resolution is equivalent to the derived category of an algebra whose quiver is determined by the dual graph. Also, for any finite subgroup G of GL(2...

Various algebraic structures have recently appeared in a parallel way in the framework of Hilbert schemes of points on a surface and respectively in the framework of equivariant K-theory [N1,Gr,S2,W], but direct connections are yet to be clarified to explain such a coincidence. We provide several non-trivial steps toward establishing our main conjecture on the isomorphism between the Hilbert quotient of the affine space $\C^{2n}$ by the wreath product $\G ~ S_n$ and Hilbert s...

We formulate a conjecture on the motivic McKay correspondence for the group scheme $ \alpha_{p}$ in characteristic $p>0$ and give a few evidences. The conjecture especially claims that there would be a close relation between quotient varieties by $\alpha_{p}$ and ones by the cyclic group of order $p$.

The classical McKay correspondence establishes an explicit link from the representation theory of a finite subgroup G of SU(2) and the geometry of the minimal resolution of the quotient of the affine plane by G. In this paper we discuss a possible generalization of the McKay correspondence to the case when G is replaced with a cocompact discrete subgroup of the universal cover of SU(1,1) such that its image in PSU(1,1) is a cocompact fuchsian group with quotient of genus 0. W...

We study the McKay correspondence for representations of the cyclic group of order $p$ in characteristic $p$. The main tool is the motivic integration generalized to quotient stacks associated to representations. Our version of the change of variables formula leads to an explicit computation of the stringy invariant of the quotient variety. A consequence is that a crepant resolution of the quotient variety (if any) has topological Euler characteristic $p$ like in the tame cas...

The familiar Fourier-Mukai technique can be extended to an equivariant setting where a finite group $G$ acts on a smooth projective variety $X$. In this paper we compare the group of invariant autoequivalences $\Aut(D(X))^G$ with the group of autoequivalences of $D^G(X)$. We apply this method in three cases: Hilbert schemes on K3 surfaces, Kummer surfaces and canonical quotients.

The quotient of a finite-dimensional vector space by the action of a finite subgroup of automorphisms is usually a singular variety. Under appropriate assumptions, the McKay correspondence relates the geometry of nice resolutions of singularities and the representations of the group. For the Hilbert scheme of points on the affine plane, we study how different correspondences (McKay, dual McKay and multiplicative McKay) are related to each other.

Let G be a finite subgroup of SL(n,C). If a quotient variety C^n/G has a crepant resolution, then its Euler number equals to the number of conjugacy classes of G, which is a weak version of the McKay correspondence. In this paper, we generalize this correspondence to a finite cyclic group of GL(n,C). We construct this correspondence using certain toric resolutions obtained through continued fractions.

We propose an arithmetic McKay correspondence which relates suitably defined zeta functions of some Deligne-Mumford stacks to the zeta functions of their crepant resolutions. Some examples are discussed.

We prove the generalised McKay correspondence for isolated singularities using Floer theory. Given an isolated singularity \C^n/G for a finite subgroup G in SL(n,\C) and any crepant resolution Y, we prove that the rank of positive symplectic cohomology SH_+(Y) is the number of conjugacy classes of G, and that twice the age grading on conjugacy classes is the \Z-grading on SH_+(Y) by the Conley-Zehnder index. The generalised McKay correspondence follows as SH_+(Y) is naturally...
