Geometric realizations of Ringel-Hall algebras of continuous quivers of type $A$

Minghui Zhao

TL;DR

The paper extends Lusztig’s geometric realization of Ringel–Hall algebras from finite quivers to continuous quivers of type A by approximating with finite quivers Q_I and taking direct limits to form K_{A_R}, together with a sheaf–function correspondence χ_{A_R}. It constructs the geometric Ringel–Hall algebra F_{A_R} and proves a surjective map from the limit algebra K_{A_R}, establishing a canonical basis for a completion bar{K}_{A_R} via IC-sheaves. Key contributions include the direct-limit framework linking continuous and finite-type realizations, and the canonical-basis structure for the completed continuum Ringel–Hall algebra. This work connects continuous quivers to continuum quantum groups and provides tools potentially useful in persistent homology and related data-analytic contexts.

Abstract

Lusztig introduced the geometric realizations of quantum groups associated to finite quivers and defined their canonical bases. Sala and Schiffmann introduced the Ringel-Hall algebra of line and realized it as the direct limit of Ringel-Hall algebras of finite quivers of type $A$. In this paper, we shall give geometric realizations of Ringel-Hall algebras of continuous quivers of type $A$ via the geometric realizations of Lusztig by using the method of approximation given by Sala and Schiffmann.
