Understanding the Hilbert scheme of subvarieties of $\mathbb{CP}^n$
EDIT: migrated to MSE.
I am looking to get a more concrete understanding of the Hilbert scheme of projective subvarieties, specifically over $\mathbb{C}$, and to obtain good references on this subject....

irreducibility punctual Hilbert scheme of relative subschemes of length $2$
Let $X$ be an irreducible projective variety over $\mathbb{C}$ (note that I do not assume $X$ smooth) and let $ p : X \longrightarrow S$ be a projective surjective morphism. For any open $U \subset S$,...

Philosophical underpinnings of Grothendieck's construction of the Hilbert scheme
Long ago when I was in grad school I was told that Grothendieck's construction of the Hilbert scheme is rooted in two main technical points: Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity and Mumford flattening ...

References for Hilbert schemes over non-Archimedean valuation
Can you suggest me some suitable references to learn the theory of Hilbert polynomials (or related Hilbert schemes) in the non-Archimedean setting?
Thanks.

Regarding a conjecture Fogarty proposed
In a paper by Fogarty titled "Algebraic Family On An Algebraic Surface,"
he conjectured that $\bf Hilb^n(\mathbb P^N)$ is always variety-- reduced and irreducible.
Is this still a conjecture; any ...

Reference Request for Hilbert Schemes
I'm a physicist working on Fractional Quantum Hall effect. The mathematical subjects of study are symmetric, translational invariant, homogeneous polynomials on $\mathbb{C}$. Very early in my study I ...

Standard techniques on rationally connected varieties
Is there some standard technique or approach to determine when a (irreducible) subvariety of a rationally connected variety is again rationally connected? Any reference/text dealing with this kind of ...

Projective schemes with a fixed hyperplane section
Let $H$ be a hyperplane in $\mathbb P^n$, and $X \subseteq H$ be a subscheme. Let $CX \subseteq \mathbb P^n$ be the cone on $X$ from a point $p \notin H$.
Let $Hilb_{CX}$ be the Hilbert scheme whose ...

Is the universal closed subscheme reduced?
Let $G$ be a finite subgroup of $\text{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ and let $Y=\text{GHilb}(\mathbb{C}^2)$ be the minimal resolution of $X=\mathbb{C}^2/G$ where $\text{GHilb}(\mathbb{C}^2)$ is the Nakamura $G$-...

Reference for combinatorics of cell decomposition of the Hilbert scheme of points in the plane
It is known from either Morse theory or Bialynicki-Birula decomposition that the fixed points of a ${\mathbb{C}}^*$ action on a smooth algebraic variety over $\mathbb{C}$ determine a cell ...

Reference request: is the punctual Hilbert scheme irreducible?
The punctual Hilbert scheme in dimension $d$ parameterizes ideals $I$ of codimension $n$ in $k[x_1,\dots, x_d]$ which are contained in some power of the ideal $(x_1,\dots, x_d)$. In other words, it is ...
