CoHAs of Torsion Sheaves on Weighted Projective Curves

TL;DR
This work computes the cohomological Hall algebra $CoHA$ of torsion sheaves on weighted projective lines with weights $(2,\dots,2)$ by presenting it as the algebra $\mathscr{P}_n$ generated by explicit elements and relations. It leverages the derived equivalence between weighted projective lines and canonical algebras to identify $CoHA(\mathrm{Tor}(\mathbb{P}^1(\boldsymbol{\lambda};2^n)))$ with the regular-representation CoHA of the canonical algebra and employs stratifications to prove ChowHA$=$CoHA on these stacks. The paper builds a functorial framework relating Hall algebras across weight data, constructs the PBW-type algebra $\mathscr{P}_n$, and verifies it for small cases $n=0,1,2$, culminating in an explicit isomorphism $CoHA(\mathbb{P}^1(2^n))\cong\mathscr{P}_n$ and a closed-form Poincaré series. These results provide a concrete, generator–relation description of CoHAs for these geometric settings, enabling explicit computations of DT-type invariants and their graded structures in this family. The approach highlights the role of tilting equivalences, affine stratifications, and stability in controlling the algebraic structure of CoHAs.
Abstract
We describe the cohomological Hall algebra of torsion sheaves on a weighted projective line with weights $(2, \dots, 2)$ in terms of generators and relations.
