Can the Quantum Torus be realized as a Hall Algebra?
Background
The Quantum Torus
Let $q$ be an arbitrary complex number, and define (the algebra of) the quantum torus to be
$$T_q:=\mathbb{C}\langle x^{\pm 1},y^{\pm 1}\rangle/xy-qyx$$
For $q=1$, this is ...

Weil's theorem about maps from a discrete group to a Lie group.
Let K be a group (with discrete topology), G be a Lie group. Let $\operatorname{Hom}(K,G)$ be the space of all group homomorphisms from K to G. This is a closed subvariety of the space of all the maps ...

Is there Grothendieck Riemann Roch for abelian category?
From the answers in noncommutative algebraic geometry, one can take abelian category as a scheme(commutative or noncommutative). So I wonder whether anyone ever developed the Grothendieck Riemann Roch ...

What is the Hirzebruch-Riemann-Roch formula for the flag variety of a Lie algebra?
If we have a finite dimensional Lie algebra g, then the flag variety of g is a projective scheme.
My question is what is Hirzebruch-Riemann-Roch formula for this projective scheme? Are there any ...

Can one calculate Ext's between microlocalized perverse sheaves/D-modules using topology?
So, I know one really good technique for calculating Ext's between perverse sheaves/D-modules using topology: the convolution algebra formalism, worked out in great detail in the book of Chriss and ...

How to understand character sheaves
There's a well-known series of articles by Lusztig about Character Sheaves. They have important connections to many things in (geometric) representation theory, e.g. 0904.1247
How to understand these ...
