  text: 'These lecture notes are based on Yang’s talk at the MATRIX program Geometric
    R-Matrices: from Geometry to Probability, at the University of Melbourne, Dec.
    18–22, 2017, and Zhao’s talk at Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in
    January 2018. We give an introductory survey of the results in Yang and Zhao (Quiver
    varieties and elliptic quantum groups, 2017. arxiv1708.01418). We discuss a sheafified
    elliptic quantum group associated to any symmetric Kac-Moody Lie algebra. The
    sheafification is obtained by applying the equivariant elliptic cohomological
    theory to the moduli space of representations of a preprojective algebra. By construction,
    the elliptic quantum group naturally acts on the equivariant elliptic cohomology
    of Nakajima quiver varieties. As an application, we obtain a relation between
    the sheafified elliptic quantum group and the global affine Grassmannian over
    an elliptic curve.'
acknowledgement: 'Y.Y. would like to thank the organizers of the MATRIX program Geometric
  R-Matrices: from Geometry to Probability for their kind invitation, and many participants
  of the program for useful discussions, including Vassily Gorbounov, Andrei Okounkov,
  Allen Knutson, Hitoshi Konno, Paul Zinn-Justin. Proposition 1 and Sect. 3.3 are
  new, for which we thank Hitoshi Konno for interesting discussions and communications.
  These notes were written when both authors were visiting the Perimeter Institute
  for Theoretical Physics (PI). We are grateful to PI for the hospitality.'
