Affine Springer Fibers and Generalized Haiman Ideals (2310.07215v2)

Abstract: We compute the Borel-Moore homology of unramified affine Springer fibers for $\mathrm{GL}_n$ under the assumption that they are equivariantly formal and relate them to certain ideals discussed by Haiman. For $n=3$, we give an explicit description of these ideals, compute their Hilbert series, generators and relations, and compare them to generalized $(q,t)$ Catalan numbers. We also compare the homology to the Khovanov-Rozansky homology of the associated link, and prove a version of a conjecture of Oblomkov, Rasmussen, and Shende in this case.
