Linear differential equations on the Riemann sphere and representations of quivers (1307.7438v4)
Published 29 Jul 2013 in math.CA, math.AG, and math.RT
Abstract: Our interest in this paper is a generalization of the additive Deligne-Simpson problem which is originally defined for Fuchsian differential equations on the Riemann sphere. We shall extend this problem to differential equations having an arbitrary number of unramified irregular singular points and determine the existence of solutions of the generalized additive Deligne-Simpson problems. Moreover we apply this result to the geometry of the moduli spaces of stable meromorphic connections of trivial bundles on the Riemann sphere. Namely, open embedding of the moduli spaces into quiver varieties is given and the non-emptiness condition of the moduli spaces is determined. Furthermore the connectedness of the moduli spaces is shown.
