In this paper, we investigate the relationship between twisted and untwisted character varieties, via a specific instance of the Cohomological Hall algebra for moduli of objects in 3-Calabi–Yau categories introduced by Kontsevich and Soibelman. In terms of Donaldson–Thomas theory, this relationship is completely understood via the calculations of Hausel and Villegas of the [Formula: see text] polynomials of twisted character varieties and untwisted character stacks. We present a conjectural lift of this relationship to the cohomological Hall algebra setting.

Abstract In this article, we deal with the structure of the spherical Hall algebra $\mathbf{U}$ of coherent sheaves with parabolic structures on a smooth projective curve $X$ of arbitrary genus $g$. We provide a shuffle-like presentation of the bundle part $\mathbf{U}^>$ and show the existence of generic spherical Hall algebra of genus $g$. We also prove that the algebra $\mathbf{U}$ contains the characteristic functions on all the Harder–Narasimhan strata. These results together imply Schiffmann’s theorem on the existence of Kac polynomials for parabolic vector bundles of fixed rank and multi-degree over $X$. On the other hand, the shuffle structure we obtain is new and we make links to the representations of quantum affine algebras of type $A$.

Abstract Let $A$ be the path algebra of a Dynkin quiver over a finite field, and let $C_1(\mathscr{P})$ be the category of 1-cyclic complexes of projective $A$-modules. In the present paper, we give a PBW-basis and a minimal set of generators for the Hall algebra ${\mathcal{H}}\,(C_1(\mathscr{P}))$ of $C_1(\mathscr{P})$. Using this PBW-basis, we firstly prove the degenerate Hall algebra of $C_1(\mathscr{P})$ is the universal enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra spanned by all indecomposable objects. Secondly, we calculate the relations among the generators in ${\mathcal{H}}\,(C_1(\mathscr{P}))$, and obtain quantum Serre relations in a quotient of certain twisted version of ${\mathcal{H}}\,(C_1(\mathscr{P}))$. Moreover, we establish relations between the degenerate Hall algebra, twisted Hall algebra of $A$ and those of $C_1(\mathscr{P})$, respectively.

AbstractWe compare two associative algebras which encode the “quantum topology” of Legendrian curves in contact threefolds of product type $$S\times {\mathbb {R}}$$ S × R . The first is the skein algebra of graded Legendrian links and the second is the Hall algebra of the Fukaya category of S. We construct a natural homomorphism from the former to the latter, which we show is an isomorphism if S is a disk with marked points and injective if S is the annulus.

Let Hv(An) and Hv(Bn) be the Hall algebras over ℚ(v) of the Dynkin quivers An and Bn (n ≥ 1), respectively, where v is an indeterminate and the quivers have linear orientation. By comparing the quantum Serre relations, we find a natural algebra epimorphism π : Hv(Bn) → Hv2(An). We determine the kernel of π by giving two sets of generators. Let φ be the natural algebra homomorphism from Hv(An) to the quantized Schur algebra Sv(n + 1, r)(r ≥ 1) and write [Formula: see text] for the induced map. We obtain several ideals of Hv(Bn) by lifting the kernel of φ to the kernel of the composition map [Formula: see text].

We study the derived Hall algebra of the partially wrapped Fukaya category of a surface. We give an explicit description of the Hall algebra for the disk with $m$ marked intervals and we give a conjectural description of the Hall algebras of all surfaces with enough marked intervals. Then we use a functoriality result to show that a graded version of the HOMFLY-PT skein relation holds among certain arcs in the Hall algebras of general surfaces.

AbstractWe give an explicit construction of the cusp eigenforms on an elliptic curve defined over a finite field, using the theory of Hall algebras and the Langlands correspondence for function fields and ${\mathrm{GL} }_{n} $. As a consequence we obtain a description of the Hall algebra of an elliptic curve as an infinite tensor product of simpler algebras. We prove that all these algebras are specializations of a universal spherical Hall algebra (as defined and studied by Burban and Schiffmann  [On the Hall algebra of an elliptic curve I, Preprint (2005), arXiv:math/0505148 [math.AG]] and Schiffmann and Vasserot [The elliptic Hall algebra, Cherednik Hecke algebras and Macdonald polynomials, Compositio Math. 147 (2011), 188–234]).

AbstractWe study the cohomological Hall algebra {\operatorname{Y}\nolimits^{\flat}} of a Lagrangian substack {\Lambda^{\flat}} of the moduli stack of representations of the preprojective algebra of an arbitrary quiver Q, and their actions on the cohomology of Nakajima quiver varieties. We prove that {\operatorname{Y}\nolimits^{\flat}} is pure and we compute its Poincaré polynomials in terms of (nilpotent) Kac polynomials. We also provide a family of algebra generators. We conjecture that {\operatorname{Y}\nolimits^{\flat}} is equal, after a suitable extension of scalars, to the Yangian {\mathbb{Y}} introduced by Maulik and Okounkov. As a corollary, we prove a variant of Okounkov’s conjecture, which is a generalization of the Kac conjecture relating the constant term of Kac polynomials to root multiplicities of Kac–Moody algebras.

AbstractWe compare two cohomological Hall algebras (CoHA). The first one is the preprojective CoHA introduced in [19] associated with each quiver Q, and each algebraic oriented cohomology theory A. It is defined as the A-homology of the moduli of representations of the preprojective algebra of Q, generalizing the K-theoretic Hall algebra of commuting varieties of Schiffmann-Vasserot [15]. The other one is the critical CoHA defined by Kontsevich-Soibelman associated with each quiver with potentials. It is defined using the equivariant cohomology with compact support with coefficients in the sheaf of vanishing cycles. In the present paper, we show that the critical CoHA, for the quiver with potential of Ginzburg, is isomorphic to the preprojective CoHA as algebras. As applications, we obtain an algebra homomorphism from the positive part of the Yangian to the critical CoHA.

The aim of this paper is to compare Kapranov's lattice algebra with Toën's derived Hall algebra. We prove that the derived Hall algebra can be identified with the lattice algebra by the “twist and extend” procedure with a suitable subalgebra closely related to the Heisenberg double.

The ability to link IS practice to a sound theoretical and scientific basis has been an ongoing endeavour for both IS practitioners and researchers. This stems from the need of both practitioners and theorists to be able to ensure that the relationship between practical knowledge and experience gained in the workplace can be grounded in theory with due consideration of the converse requirement for theory to be based on practice. This paper provides an example of how Action Research (AR) was successfully applied by a practitioner as method in a South African strategic IS management environment. The paper describes the specifics of the process that was used and highlights various issues that had to be considered in this specific instance of use of AR as method.
