Automorphisms of the Quantum Cohomology of the Springer Resolution and Applications

In this paper, we introduce quantum Demazure–Lusztig operators acting by ring automorphisms on the equivariant quantum cohomology of the Springer resolution. Our main application is a presentation of the torus-equivariant quantum cohomology in terms of generators and relations. We provide explicit descriptions for the classical types. We also recover Kim’s earlier results for the complete flag varieties by taking the Toda limit.
