Hall algebra approach to Drinfeld's presentation of quantum loop algebras

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

The quantum loop algebra Uv(Lg)U_{v}(\mathcal{L}\mathfrak{g}) was defined as a generalization of the Drinfeld's new realization of the quantum affine algebra to the loop algebra of any Kac-Moody algebra g\mathfrak{g}. It has been shown by Schiffmann that the Hall algebra of the category of coherent sheaves on a weighted projective line is closely related to the quantum loop algebra Uv(Lg)U_{v}(\mathcal{L}\mathfrak{g}), for some g\mathfrak{g} with a star-shaped Dynkin diagram. In this paper we study Drinfeld's presentation of Uv(Lg)U_{v}(\mathcal{L}\mathfrak{g}) in the double Hall algebra setting, based on Schiffmann's work. We explicitly find out a collection of generators of the double composition algebra $\mathbf{DC}(\Coh(\mathbb{X}))$ and verify that they satisfy all the Drinfeld relations.
