Extension of a type A Springer fibre
Given a decomposition $p=(p_1,\dots,p_n)$ of $n$, one can associate its corresponding
partial flag variety $$\mathcal{B}_p=\{F=(0=F_0\subset F_1\subset \dots \subset F_n=\mathbb{C}^n) \mid \dim F_i/F_{...

Equivalence between $\mathcal{D}_\lambda$ modules and $\mathcal{D}_{0}$ modules
Fix $G$ a finite dimensional reductive group and $\lambda$ a weight. Apparently the category of $\mathcal{D}_\lambda$ modules on $G/B$ is equivalent to the category of $\mathcal{D}_0$ modules on $G'/B'...

Nakajima reflection functors and the flavour/framing group action
Nakajima has constructed so-called reflection functors that are isomorphisms between different quiver varieties that have the same framing $\mathbf{w}:$
$$\Phi_{\sigma}:\mathfrak{M}_\zeta(Q,\mathbf{v}...

Is $\mathbb{P}^1$ the only smooth projective curve with a locally split tangent lie algebroid?
Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve over an algebraically closed field $k$.
The tangent lie algeborid $\mathcal{T}_C$ of $C$ is just sheaf of vector fields on $C$ equipped with the usual lie ...
