To do this, we use the Kac conjecture for indivisible roots and a relation between the Poincare polynomials of quiver varieties and the Kac polynomials, counting the number of absolutely irreducible representations of the quiver over finite fields. As a corollary of this relation, we get an explicit formula for the Poincare polynomials of quiver varieties, which is equivalent to the formula of Hausel.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2006-10-02T18:47:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "16G20", "17B67" ], "keywords": [ "kac-moody algebra", "poincare polynomials", "quiver varieties", "integrable irreducible highest weight module", "root multiplicities" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math......9349M" } } }
