An example of an Sl_2-Hilbert scheme with multiplicities

We determine the invariant Hilbert scheme of the zero fibre of the moment map of an action of Sl_2 on (C^2)^6 as one of the first examples of invariant Hilbert schemes with multiplicities. While doing this, we present a general procedure how to realise the calculation of invariant Hilbert schemes, which have been introduced by Alexeev and Brion. We also consider questions of smoothness and connectedness and thereby show that our Hilbert scheme gives a resolution of singularities of the symplectic reduction of the action.

On the Existence of Symplectic Resolutions of Symplectic Reductions

We compute the symplectic reductions for the action of Sp_2n on several copies of C^2n and for all coregular representations of Sl_2. If it exists we give at least one symplectic resolution for each example. In the case Sl_2 acting on sl_2+C^2 we obtain an explicit description of Fus and Namikawas example of two non-equivalent symplectic resolutions connected by a Mukai flop.
