We prove that certain quiver varieties are irreducible and therefore are isomorphic to Hilbert schemes of points of the total spaces of the bundles $\mathcal O_{\mathbb P^1}(-n)$ for $n \ge 1$.
We study the Ext modules in the category of left modules over a twisted algebra of a finite quiver over a ringed space $(X,\mathcal O_X)$, allowing for the presence of relations. We introduce a spectral sequence which relates the Ext modules in that category with the Ext modules in the category of $\mathcal O_X$-modules. Contrary to what happens in the absence of relations, this spectral sequence in general does not degenerate at the second page. We also consider local Ext sheaves. Under suitable hypotheses, the Ext modules are represented as hypercohomology groups
In a previous paper, a realization of the moduli space of framed torsion-free sheaves on Hirzebruch surfaces in terms of monads was given. We build upon that result to construct ADHM data for the Hilbert scheme of points of the total space of the line bundles $\mathcal O(-n)$ on $\mathbb P^1$, for $n \ge 1$, i.e., the resolutions of the singularities of type $\frac1n(1,1)$. Basically by implementing a version of the special McKay correspondence, this ADHM description is in turn used to realize these Hilbert schemes as irreducible connected components of quiver varieties. We obtain in this way new examples of quiver varieties which are not of the Nakajima type.
In the first part of this paper we provide a survey of some fundamental results about moduli spaces of framed sheaves on smooth projective surfaces. In particular, we outline a result by Bruzzo and Markushevich, and discuss a few significant examples. The moduli spaces of framed sheaves on $\mathbb{P}^2$, on multiple blowup of $\mathbb{P}^2$ are described in terms of ADHM data and, when this characterization is available, as quiver varieties. The second part is devoted to a detailed study of framed sheaves on the Hirzebruch surface $Σ_n$ in the case when the invariant expressing the necessary and sufficient condition for the nonemptiness of moduli spaces attains its minimum (what we call the "minimal case"). Our main result is that, under this assumption, the corresponding moduli space is isomorphic to a Grassmannian (when $n=1$), or to the direct sum of $n-1$ copies of the cotangent bundle of a Grassmannian (when $n\geq 2$). Finally, by slightly generalizing a construction due to Nakajima, we prove that these moduli spaces admit a description as quiver varieties.
We define monads for framed torsion-free sheaves on Hirzebruch surfaces and use them to construct moduli spaces for these objects. These moduli spaces are smooth algebraic varieties, and we show that they are fine by constructing a universal monad.
Relying on a monadic description of the moduli space of framed sheaves on Hirzebruch surfaces, we construct ADHM data for the Hilbert scheme of points of the total space of the line bundle $\mathcal O(-n)$ on $\mathbb P^1$.
