The Hikita conjecture for symplectically dual resolutions

About 5 years old · traced to

Let XX and X!X^! be symplectically dual, and let YY be the affinization of XX. Let YTY^T denote the scheme-theoretic fixed locus of YY under the TT-action, with grading induced by the scaling Gm\mathbb{G}_m-action. Hikita conjecture. There exists an isomorphism of graded algebras

O(YT)≅H∗(X!;k).\mathcal{O}(Y^T) \cong H^*(X^!;k).

The conjecture identifies the cohomology of the dual resolution with the coordinate ring of the fixed locus; it is the classical precursor of the Hikita--Nakajima and quantum Hikita conjectures. The source gives no resolution status.

The manuscript claims the equivariant cohomological Hikita comparison for finite-quiver gauge theories with regular stability and free gauge action on the semistable locus. Trivial flavor torus gives the ordinary complex-coefficient fixed-scheme comparison in this target, including nilpotents. It does not treat every symplectically dual pair.See full solutionHide full solution
