In the present paper we deduce a similar relation between the derived category of the principal block for the {\\em small (reduced) quantum algebra} and the derived category of (non-equivariant) coherent sheaves on the Springer resolution. As an application we get a geometric description of Hochschild cohomology (in particular, the center) of the regular block for the small quantum group, and use it to give an explicit description of a certain subalgebra in the center (obtained previously by another method and under more restrictive assumptions in math.QA/0107098. We also briefly explain the relation of our result to the geometric description math.RT/0407048 of the derived category of modules over the De Concini -- Kac quantum algebra.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2007-01-29T16:46:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "small quantum group", "springer resolution", "derived category", "principal block", "kac quantum algebra" ], "tags": [ "conference paper" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math......9819B" } } }
