Hall algebras of curves, commuting varieties and Langlands duality

Understand

We construct an isomorphism between the (universal) spherical Hall algebra of a smooth projective curve of genus g and a convolution algebra in the (equivariant) K-theory of the genus g commuting varieties C_{{gl}_r}={(x_i, y_i) \in {gl}_r^{2g}; \sum_{i=1}^g [x_i,y_i]=0}.

• We can view this isomorphism as a version of the geometric Langlands duality in the formal neighborhood of the trivial local system, for the group GL_r.
• We extend this to all reductive groups and we compute the image, under our correspondence, of the skyscraper sheaf supported on the trivial local system.
