Abstract

For a complex reductive Lie group G with Lie algebra g, Cartan subalgebra h and Weyl group W, we describe the category of perverse sheaves on h/W smooth w.r.t the natural stratification. The answer is given in terms of mixed Bruhat sheaves, which are certain mixed sheaf-cosheaf data on cells of a natural cell decomposition of h/W. Using the parabolic Bruhat decomposition, we relate mixed Bruhat sheaves with the properties of various procedures of parabolic induction and restriction that connect different Levi subgroups in G.
