Canonical basis in equivariant K-theory of the Springer resolution

In Definition 15.0.2 of the notes from a course by Bezrukavnikov there is a characterization of canonical basis in K-theory of a Springer fiber which is due to Lusztig. This characterization is in ...

Smoothness of some varieties related to the Slodowy slice

Let $G$ be a complex algebraic group with simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g} = \operatorname{Lie} G$. Let $\mathcal{B}$ be the flag variety consisting of all the Borel subalgebras of $\mathfrak{g}$. Let ...

Understanding the proof of the Springer correspondence

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field $k$ with Weyl group $W$. Let $$ \mathcal{S} = R\pi_*\mathbb{Q}_\ell[\dim \mathcal{N}] $$ be the Springer sheaf, where $\...

Counting points of parabolic Springer fibers

Let $G$ be a reductive group over an (algebraically closed ) field. To each parabolic subgroup $P \subseteq G$ and $x \in G$ we can consider two types of partial Springer fibers associated to it : $$1)...

Geometric meaning of inducing a representation from a parabolic subgroup of a Weyl group

What is the geometric meaning of inducing a representation from a parabolic subgroup of a Weyl group? Could Springer theory of Weyl group representations be used to obtain such a geometric meaning?

Are there cases in which the Weyl group _does_ act on the flag variety/springer fiber?

In nearly every reference on the classical springer correspondence (for example Chriss/Ginzburg's book on Complex Geometry) it is stated that the action of the Weyl Group on the homology of the ...

Intersection of components in Springer fibre of type A

From the standard results on Springer fibers of type A, we know that given a Springer fiber, say $\mathcal{B}_\lambda,$ its irreducible components are all equidimensional and parametrized by standard ...

How should I think about the Grothendieck-Springer alteration?

Given a simple complex Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, recall the Springer resolution of its nilpotent cone $\widetilde{\mathcal{N}}\to \mathcal{N}$. Several times I have seen someone explaining Springer ...

Is it possible to describe the action of the Weyl group on the cohomology of the fibers of the Grothendieck-Springer resolution?

I am confused about the following: can one describe the action of the Weyl group on the cohomology of each fiber of the Grothendieck-Springer resolution? I only need the case of ${\mathfrak sl}_n$. ...
