Description:
In this paper, we give a geometric construction of the quantum group $U_t({\mathcal G})$ using Nakajima categories, which were developed in Scherotzke (‘Quiver varieties and self-injective algebras’, Preprint, 2014, arxiv.org/abs/1405.4729). Our methods allow us to establish a direct connection between the algebraic realization of the quantum group as Hall algebra by Bridgeland (‘Quantum groups via Hall algebras of complexes’, Annals of Maths. 177 (2013) 739–759) and its geometric counterpart by Qin (‘Quantum groups via cyclic quiver varieties I’, Compos. Math. , Preprint, 2013, arxiv.org/abs/1312.1101).
