Modules over affine lie algebras at critical level and quantum groups by Qian Lin.

There are two algebras associated to a reductive Lie algebra g: the De Concini- Kac quantum algebra and the Kac-Moody Lie algebra. Recent results show that the principle block of De Concini -Kac quantum algebra at an odd root of unity with (some) fixed central character is equivalent to the core of a certain t-structure on the derived category of coherent sheaves on certain Springer Fiber. Meanwhile, a certain category of representation of Kac-Moody Lie algebra at critical level with (some) fixed central character is also equivalent to a core of certain t-structure on the same triangulated category. Based on several geometric results developed by Bezurkvanikov et al. these two abelian categories turn out to be equivalent. i.e. the two t-structures coincide.
