Algebraic study of quantum configuration spaces of decorated flags

Abstract

Let $G$ be a connected, simply connected complex simple algebraic group and $\mathscr{A}_G=G/U^+$ its base affine space, whose elements are called decorated flags. We introduce the quantum configuration space of decorated flags $\mathcal{O}_q(\mathrm{Conf}_K \mathscr{A}_G)$ and initiate its algebraic study, based on the representation theory of quantized enveloping algebras. Our algebra $\mathcal{O}_q(\mathrm{Conf}_K \mathscr{A}_G)$ gives a quantum analogue of the configuration space $\mathrm{Conf}_K \mathscr{A}_G$ of $K$ decorated flags, which provides local building blocks for the Fock--Goncharov moduli space $\mathscr{A}_{G,Σ}$ of decorated twisted $G$-local systems on a marked surface $Σ$. We establish basic algebraic properties of $\mathcal{O}_q(\mathrm{Conf}_K \mathscr{A}_G)$ such as quantum normalization of representatives, the quantum cyclic shifts, the quantum Wilson lines, whose classical counterparts have been fundamental in the study of $\mathscr{A}_{G,Σ}$. Moreover, we construct quantum seeds for $\mathcal{O}_q(\mathrm{Conf}_4 \mathscr{A}_G)$ by transporting the Berenstein--Zelevinsky quantum cluster structure on $\mathcal{O}_q(G)$ via quantum Wilson lines, and prove that $\mathcal{O}_q(\mathrm{Conf}_4 \mathscr{A}_G)$ coincides with the corresponding quantum cluster algebra and its upper counterpart after the localization at frozen variables. The exchange matrices for our quantum seeds agree with the Goncharov--Shen exchange matrices. We also show that quantum seeds for $\mathcal{O}_q(\mathrm{Conf}_4 \mathscr{A}_G)$ restrict to those for $\mathcal{O}_q(\mathrm{Conf}_3 \mathscr{A}_G)$. Finally, up to a natural conjecture, we construct quantum seeds for $\mathcal{O}_q(\mathrm{Conf}_K \mathscr{A}_G)$, $K\geq 5$, and prove that the corresponding quantum cluster algebras contain the quantum configuration space $\mathcal{O}_q(\mathrm{Conf}_K \mathscr{A}_G)$.

A local relative trace formula for F*\SL(2,F)

In this note, we derive explicitly the local relative trace formula for the symmetric space F*\SL(2,F) at the level of Lie algebras, where F is a p-adic field of residue characteristic greater than two and F* is the set of invertible elements in F. This is perhaps one of the simplest non-trivial analogs of the trace formula, and also a motivating example for the author's work (in preparation) on the relative trace formula.

Semi-infinite parabolic IC-sheaf

Let G be a connected reductive group, P its parabolic subgroup. We consider the parabolic semi-infinite category of sheaves on the affine Grassmanian of G and construct the parabolic version of the semi-infinite IC-sheaf of each orbit. We establish some of its properties and relate it to sheaves on the Drinfeld compactification of the moduli stack Bun_P of P-torsors on a curve. We also relate the parabolic semi-infinite IC-sheaf with the dual baby Verma object on the spectral side.

The Grothendieck group of an extriangulated category

In this paper, we investigate the split Grothendieck group $K^{\rm sp}_{0}(\mathcal{M})$ of a $d$-rigid subcategory $\mathcal{M}$ in an extriangulated category $\mathscr{C}$. As applications, we prove the following results: (1) If $\mathcal{M}$ is a silting subcategory, then the Grothendieck group $K_{0}(\mathscr{C})$ is isomorphic to $K_{0}^{\rm sp}(\mathcal{M})$; (2) If $\mathcal{M}$ is a $d$-cluster tilting subcategory, then $K_{0}(\mathscr{C})$ is isomorphic to the index Grothendieck group $K_{0}^{\rm in}(\mathcal{M})$; (3) Let $\mathcal{C}_{A_{n}}^{d}$ be the $d$-cluster category of type $A_n$. If $d$ is even, then $K_0(\mathcal{C}_{A_{n}}^{d})\cong \mathbb{Z}/(n+1)\mathbb{Z}$. If $d$ is odd, then $K_0(\mathcal{C}_{A_{n}}^{d})\cong \mathbb{Z}$ if $n$ is odd; $K_0(\mathcal{C}_{A_{n}}^{d})\cong 0$ if $n$ is even.
