Perverse schobers are categorifications of perverse sheaves. We construct a perverse schober on a partial compactification of the stringy K\"ahler moduli space (SKMS) associated by Halpern-Leistner and Sam to a quasi-symmetric…

We survey recent developments in the study of perverse sheaves on semi-abelian varieties. As concrete applications, we discuss various obstructions on the homotopy type of complex algebraic manifolds (expressed in terms of their cohomology…

Kapranov and schechtman gave quiver description of perverse sheaves on real hyperplane arrangements. We used this description to relate the perverse sheaves on Coxeter hyperplane arrangements of type $\mathcal A_n$ for different values of…

A class of perverse sheaves on framed representation varieties of the Jordan quiver is defined. Its relationship with product of symmetric groups, tensor product of Schur algebras, and tensor product of Fock spaces are addressed.

We propose a point of view on resurgence theory based on the study of perverse sheaves on the complex line carrying an algebraic structure with respect to additive convolution. In particular, we lift the concept of alien derivatives…

Constructible sheaves of abelian groups on a stratified space can be equivalently described in terms of representations of the exit-path category. In this work, we provide a similar presentation of the abelian category of perverse sheaves…

The purpose of these lectures is to introduce the notion of a Stokes-perverse sheaf as a receptacle for the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence for holonomic D-modules. They develop the original idea of P. Deligne in dimension one, and make it…

We explain how to compute simple perverse sheaves on the stack of $G$-zips and do these computations in several examples.

We consider the category of perverse sheaves on a complex vector space smooth with respect to a stratification given by an arrangement of hyperplanes with real equations. As shown in an earlier wotk of two of the authors, this category can…

In recent work, Graham has constructed a variety with a map to the nilpotent cone which is similar in some ways to the Springer resolution. One aspect in which Graham's map differs is that it is not in general an isomorphism over the…

Exotic sheaves are certain complexes of coherent sheaves on the cotangent bundle of the flag variety of a reductive group. They are closely related to perverse-coherent sheaves on the nilpotent cone. This expository article includes the…

A perverse schober is a categorification of a perverse sheaf proposed by Kapranov--Schechtman. In this paper, we construct examples of perverse schobers on the Riemann sphere, which categorify the intersection complexes of natural local…

Let H be an arrangement of hyperplanes in R^n and Perv(C^n,H) be the category of perverse sheaves on C^n smooth with respect to the stratification given by complexified flats of H. We give a description of Perv(C^n,H) in terms of "matrix…

We show that some of the main results in Laurentiu Maxim's paper on this subject can be obtained (even in a slightly more general setting) using the theory of perverse sheaves of finite rank over $\Q$ as described for instance in the…

This paper is an introduction to the use of perverse sheaves with positive characteristic coefficients in modular representation theory. In the first part, we survey results relating singularities in finite and affine Schubert varieties and…

The goal of this paper is to explain how basic properties of perverse sheaves sometimes translate via Riemann-Hilbert correspondences (in both characteristic $0$ and characteristic $p$) to highly non-trivial properties of singularities,…

If $X$ is a variety over a number field, Annette Huber has defined a category of "horizontal" (or "almost everywhere unramified") $\ell$-adic complexes and $\ell$-adic perverse sheaves on $X$. For such objects, the notion of weights makes…

We show that perverse character varieties are (quasi-)affine. We do this in a purely stack-theoretic fashion, by exhibiting enough sections of the structure sheaf.
