| Abstract: |
A quasimap from an algebraic curve to a GIT quotient is a map to the stack quotient that is generically stable. The geometry of Laumon spaces (an open subset of quasimaps from P^1 to the flag variety) is closely related to the representation theory of gl_n. In particular, one can construct an action of gl_n on the cohomology of Laumon spaces via geometric correspondences, and this cohomology can be identified with dual Verma modules of gl_n under this action. The full moduli space of quasimaps provides a natural compactification of Laumon spaces. I will explain how to construct an action of gl_n on the equivariant cohomology of these moduli spaces and explore its relation to tilting modules in Category O.
