Crepant resolutions and A-Hilbert schemes in dimension four

The aim of this thesis is to improve our understanding of when crepant resolutions exist in dimension four. In three dimensions [BKR01] proved that for any finite subgroup G ⊂ SL(3,C) the G-Hilbert scheme G-Hilb(C3) gives a crepant resolution of the quotient singularity C3/G. In four dimensions very...
