Their representations have been studied in connection with different subjects, such as symplectic quotient singularities, Hilbert scheme of points in the plane and combinatorics. Let ... SL(2,C) be a finite subgroup, and let Sn be the symmetric group on n letters. We study finite dimensional representations of the wreath product symplectic reflection algebra ... of rank n, attached to the wreath product group ... and to the parameters (k, c), where k is a complex number (occurring only for n > 1), and c a class function on the set of nontrivial elements of ... In particular, we construct, for the first time, families of irreducible finite dimensional modules when ... is not cyclic, n > 1, and (k, c) vary in some linear subspace of the space of parameters. The method is deformation theoretic and uses properties of the Hochschild cohomology of H1,k,c(...), and a Morita equivalence, established by Crawley-Boevey and Holland, between the rank one algebra H1, ... and the deformed preprojective algebra ?Q), where Q is the extended Dynkin quiver attached to ?? via the McKay correspondence. We carry out a similar construction for continuous wreath product symplectic reflection algebras, a generalization to the case when ... SL(2,C) is infinite reductive. This time the main tool is the definition of a continuous analog of the deformed preprojective algebras for the infinite affine Dynkin quivers corresponding to the infinite reductive subgroups of SL(2,C). / by Silvia Montarani. / Ph.D.
