TL;DR
This work analyzes the fibers of the Procesi bundle over the Γ-fixed points of the Hilbert scheme of n points in the plane, proving a Reduction Theorem that expresses each fiber as an induced image from a fiber over a zero-dimensional component in a smaller Hilbert scheme. The main tool is an explicit isomorphism $S_p\cong S_{g_Γ}\times Γ$ that reduces the $(\mathfrak{S}_n\times Γ)$-module structure to a smaller setting, enabling concrete decompositions and combinatorial consequences. In type A, this yields explicit decompositions of fibers over monomial ideals in terms of ℓ-core data and induced representations, with two edge-case proofs using symmetric function theory and representation theory. In type D, the paper describes how fibers decompose under the binary dihedral group, relating the $BD_{ℓ}$-modules to smaller cores and showing symmetry phenomena among characters, thereby linking Hilbert schemes, McKay correspondence, and symmetric function methods.
Abstract
For $Γ$ a finite subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ and $n \geq 1$, we study the fibers of the Procesi bundle over the $Γ$-fixed points of the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points in the plane. For each irreducible component of this fixed point locus, our approach reduces the study of the fibers of the Procesi bundle, as an $(\mathfrak{S}_n \times Γ)$-module, to the study of the fibers of the Procesi bundle over an irreducible component of dimension zero in a smaller Hilbert scheme. When $Γ$ is of type $A$, our main result shows, as a corollary, that the fiber of the Procesi bundle over the monomial ideal associated with a partition $λ$ is induced, as an $(\mathfrak{S}_n \times Γ)$-module, from the fiber of the Procesi bundle over the monomial ideal associated with the core of $λ$. We give different proofs of this corollary in two edge cases, using only representation theory and symmetric functions.
