We study moduli spaces of twisted quasimaps to a hypertoric variety $X$, arising as the Higgs branch of an abelian supersymmetric gauge theory in three dimensions. These parametrise general quiver representations whose building blocks are maps between rank one sheaves on $mathbb{P}^1$, subject to a stability condition, associated to the quiver, involving both the sheaves and the maps. We show that the singular cohomology of these moduli spaces is naturally identified with the Ext group of a pair of holonomic modules over the `quantized loop space of $X$, which we view as a Higgs branch for a related theory with infinitely many matter fields. We construct the coulomb branch of this theory, and find that it is a periodic analogue of the coulomb branch associated to $X$. Using the formalism of symplectic duality, we derive an expression for the generating function of twisted quasimap invariants in terms of the character of a certain tilting module on the periodic coulomb branch. We give a closed formula for this generating function when $X$ arises as the abelianisation of the $N$-step flag quiver.

This paper relates the elliptic stable envelopes of a hypertoric variety $X$ with the K-theoretic stable envelopes of the loop hypertoric space, $widetilde{mathscr{L}}X$. It thus points to a possible categorification of elliptic stable envelopes.
In this paper, we study the algebraic symplectic geometry of the singular moduli spaces of Higgs bundles of degree $0$ and rank $n$ on a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g$. In particular, we prove that such moduli spaces are symplectic singularities, in the sense of Beauville [Bea00], and admit a projective symplectic resolution if and only if $g=1$ or $(g, n)=(2,2)$. These results are an application of a recent paper by Bellamy and Schedler [BS16] via the so-called Isosingularity Theorem.
We provide a definition of Tanaka-Thomass Vafa-Witten invariants for etale gerbes over smooth projective surfaces using the moduli spaces of $mu_r$-gerbe twisted sheaves and Higgs sheaves. Twisted sheaves and their moduli are naturally used to study the period-index theorem for the corresponding $mu_r$-gerbe in the Brauer group of the surfaces. Deformation and obstruction theory of the twisted sheaves and Higgs sheaves behave like general sheaves and Higgs sheaves. We define virtual fundamental classes on the moduli spaces and define the twisted Vafa-Witten invariants using virtual localization and the Behrend function on the moduli spaces. As applications for the Langlands dual group $SU(r)/zz_r$ of $SU(r)$, we define the $SU(r)/zz_r$-Vafa-Witten invariants using the twisted invariants for etale gerbes, and prove the S-duality conjecture of Vafa-Witten for the projective plane in rank two and for K3 surfaces in prime ranks. We also conjecture for other surfaces.
We study the algebraic symplectic geometry of multiplicative quiver varieties, which are moduli spaces of representations of certain quiver algebras, introduced by Crawley-Boevey and Shaw, called multiplicative preprojective algebras. They are multiplicative analogues of Nakajima quiver varieties. They include character varieties of (open) Riemann surfaces fixing conjugacy class closures of the monodromies around punctures, when the quiver is crab-shaped. We prove that, under suitable hypotheses on the dimension vector of the representations, or the conjugacy classes of monodromies in the character variety case, the normalisations of such moduli spaces are symplectic singularities and that the existence of a symplectic resolution depends on a combinatorial condition on the quiver and the dimension vector. These results are analogous to those obtained by Bellamy and the first author in the ordinary quiver variety case, and for character varieties of closed Riemann surfaces. At the end of the paper, we outline some conjectural generalisations to moduli spaces of objects in 2-Calabi--Yau categories.
We work on a projective threefold $X$ which satisfies the Bogomolov-Gieseker conjecture of Bayer-Macr`i-Toda, such as $mathbb P^3$ or the quintic threefold. We prove certain moduli spaces of 2-dimensional torsion sheaves on $X$ are smooth bundles over Hilbert schemes of ideal sheaves of curves and points in $X$. When $X$ is Calabi-Yau this gives a simple wall crossing formula expressing curve counts (and so ultimately Gromov-Witten invariants) in terms of counts of D4-D2-D0 branes. These latter invariants are predicted to have modular properties which we discuss from the point of view of S-duality and Noether-Lefschetz theory.
