5. Affine Springer fibers and braid varieties
-
Problem 5.1.
What relationship is there between braid varieties and affine Springer fibers in the affine Grassmannian? -
Let $GCD(k,n)=1$, let $U(k,n)$ be the quotient of the big positroid cell in $G(k,n)$ by $(\mathbb{C}^*)^n$. It has all $H^*$ in even degree.
Problem 5.2.
Why does there exist an affine springer fiber with the same betti numbers and a cell decomposition? Do the rings match?
