By a result of Haiman, the Cech cohomology groups $H^i(E)$ vanish for all $i>0$. It follows that the equivariant Euler characteristic with respect to the standard two-dimensional torus action has nonnegative coefficients in the torus variables $z_1,z_2$, because they count the dimensions of the weight spaces of $H^0(E)$. We derive a very explicit asymmetric formula for this Euler characteristic which has this property, by expanding known contour integral formulas for the Euler characteristic stemming from the quiver description in $z_2$, and calculating the coefficients using Jing's Hall-Littlewood vertex operator with parameter $z_1$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-12-28T08:55:19.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14C05", "05E05", "05E10" ], "keywords": [ "hilbert scheme", "hall-littlewood polynomials", "vector bundles", "jings hall-littlewood vertex operator", "standard two-dimensional torus action" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1212.6487C" } } }
