The nilpotent-orbit chart conjecture for generalized punctual Hilbert schemes

At least 6 years old · documented by

Let g\mathfrak{g} be a semisimple Lie algebra, and suppose a smooth version of Hilb⁡(g)\operatorname{Hilb}(\mathfrak{g}) exists. For classical g\mathfrak{g}, let mm be the dimension of its standard representation and let WW be the relevant Weyl-group action on C[x,y]\mathbb{C}[x,y]. Nilpotent-orbit chart conjecture. The smooth version of Hilb⁡(g)\operatorname{Hilb}(\mathfrak{g}) is covered by charts parametrized by nilpotent orbits and all these charts are necessary. In particular, for classical g\mathfrak{g}, the modified version of Hilb⁡0(g)\operatorname{Hilb}_0(\mathfrak{g}) is isomorphic to the space of ideals of C[x,y]\mathbb{C}[x,y] which are of codimension mm, WW-invariant, supported at 00, and which lie in a chart associated to a partition of type g\mathfrak{g}. The paper motivates these charts using the parametrization of nilpotent orbits, but does not prove the conjectural description.
