In the case thar Y is S^n for a surface S with trivial canonical class we prove that (a small modification of) the orbifold cohomology of X is naturally isomorphic to the cohomology ring of the Hilbert scheme of n points on S computed in math.AG/0012166 by Lehn and Sorger.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2001-04-30T14:42:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "orbifold cohomology", "global quotients", "hilbert scheme", "invariant part", "finite group" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2001math......4207F" } } }
