On the semi-stable CoHa and its modules arising from smooth models

Abstract

We study a variant of the semi-stable Cohomological Hall algebra which we construct using equivariant Chow groups. This algebra, we call it the semi-stable ChowHa, arises as a quotient of the CoHa. Smooth models of quiver moduli give rise to modules over the semi-stable ChowHa. We prove that these modules are cyclic and we compute a presentation using Harder–Narasimhan methods.
