The crepant resolution conjecture for quotient singularities

Let VV) be a complex vector space and let ΓSU(m/2)\Gamma\subset\operatorname{SU}(m/2) be finite. Let (M,ρ)(M,\rho) be a crepant resolution of V/ΓV/\Gamma, and let the age of a conjugacy class of Γ\Gamma be the grading appearing in the conjecture. The crepant resolution conjecture. There exists a basis of H(M,Q)H^\bullet(M,\mathbb{Q}) consisting of algebraic cycles in correspondence with the conjugacy classes of Γ\Gamma, with a conjugacy class of age kk corresponding to a cycle in H2k(M,Q)H^{2k}(M,\mathbb{Q}). In particular, H(M;Q)H^\bullet(M;\mathbb{Q}) is concentrated in even degrees and χ(M)\chi(M) equals the number of conjugacy classes of Γ\Gamma. This is the string-theoretic prediction relating the topology of a crepant resolution to the representation theory of the quotient group; its general status is not resolved by the source.
