Asymptotic geometry at infinity of quiver varieties

Abstract

Zoom Link

Using an approach developed by Melrose, we will explain how to show that quiver varieties are quasi-asymptotically conical (QAC) provided some genericity assumption holds.  Relying on  this fine description of the geometry at infinity and a spectral gap for singular 3-Sasakian manifolds,  we will then explain how the reduced L^2 cohomology of a quiver variety can be computed, confirming a prediction made by Vafa and Witten in 1994.  This is a joint work with Panagiotis Dimakis.
