Abstract

Laumon moduli spaces are certain smooth closures of the moduli spaces of maps from the projective line to the flag variety of GL n . We calculate the equivariant cohomology rings of the Laumon moduli spaces in terms of Gelfand–Tsetlin subalgebra of U(gl n ) and formulate a conjectural answer for the small quantum cohomology rings in terms of certain commutative shift of argument subalgebras of U(gl n ).
