Abstract

We study the dualizability of sheaves on manifolds with isotropic singular supports ShΛ(M)\operatorname{Sh}_\Lambda(M) and microsheaves with isotropic supports μshΛ(Λ)\operatorname{\mu sh}_\Lambda(\Lambda) and obtain a classification result of colimit-preserving functors by convolutions of sheaf kernels. Moreover, for sheaves with isotropic singular supports and compact supports ShΛb(M)0\operatorname{Sh}_\Lambda^b(M)_0, the standard categorical duality and Verdier duality are related by the wrap-once functor, which is the inverse Serre functor in proper objects, and we thus show that the Verdier duality extends naturally to all compact objects ShΛc(M)0\operatorname{Sh}_\Lambda^c(M)_0 when the wrap-once functor is an equivalence, for instance, when Λ\Lambda is a full Legendrian stop or a swappable Legendrian stop.
