Abstract
In this paper we introduce several computational techniques for the study of moduli spaces of McKay quiver representations, making use of Gröbner bases and toric geometry. For a finite abelian group G ⊂ GL(n,k), let Yθ be the coherent component of the moduli space of θ-stable representations of the McKay quiver. Our two main results are as follows: we provide a simple description of the quiver representations corresponding to the torus orbits of Yθ, and, in the case where Yθ equals Nakamura's G-Hilbert scheme, we present explicit equations for a cover by local coordinate charts. The latter theorem corrects the first result from Nakamura [I. Nakamura, Hilbert schemes of abelian group orbits, J. Algebraic Geom. 10 (4) (2001) 757–779]. The techniques introduced here allow experimentation in this subject and give concrete algorithmic tools to tackle further open questions. To illustrate this point, we present an example of a nonnormal G-Hilbert scheme, thereby answering a question raised by Nakamura.
