Multiplicative preprojective algebras are 2-Calabi-Yau


Abstract in English

We prove that multiplicative preprojective algebras, defined by Crawley-Boevey and Shaw, are 2-Calabi-Yau algebras, in the case of quivers containing unoriented cycles. If the quiver is not itself a cycle, we show that the center is trivial, and hence the Calabi-Yau structure is unique. If the quiver is a cycle, we show that the algebra is a non-commutative crepant resolution of its center, the ring of functions on the corresponding multiplicative quiver variety with a type A surface singularity. We also prove that the
