Algebraic structures behind Hilbert schemes and wreath products

Abstract: Abstract. In this paper we review various strikingly parallel algebraic structures behind Hilbert schemes of points on surfaces and certain finite groups called the wreath products. We explain connections among Hilbert schemes, wreath products, infinite-dimensional Lie algebras, and vertex algebras. As an application we further describe the cohomology ring structure of the Hilbert schemes. We organize this paper around several general principles which have been supported by various works on these subjects.

“…This fact is well known, see e.g. [13], [12]; we include a proof only for the sake of completeness. We also prove that for ζ R ∈ C − (n) the quiver variety M (0,ζ R ) (nv 0 , w 0 ) is isomorphic to the Hilbert scheme of points on X Γ .…”
