Parabolic Hilbert schemes via the Dunkl-Opdam subalgebra
In this note we explicitly construct an action of the rational Cherednik algebra $H_{1,m/n}(S_n,\mathbb{C}^n)$ corresponding to the permutation representation of $S_n$ on the $\mathbb{C}^{*}$-equivariant homology of parabolic Hilbert schemes of points on the plane curve singularity $\{x^{m} = y^{n}\}$ for coprime $m$ and $n$. We use this to construct actions of quantized Gieseker algebras on parabolic Hilbert schemes on the same plane curve singularity, and actions of the Cherednik algebra at $t = 0$ on the equivariant homology of parabolic Hilbert schemes on the non-reduced curve $\{y^{n} = 0\}.$ Our main tool is the study of the combinatorial representation theory of the rational Cherednik algebra via the subalgebra generated by Dunkl-Opdam elements.
