Recall that the Springer correspondence relates representations of the Weyl group to perverse sheaves on the nilpotent cone. We explain how to extend this to an equivalence between the triangulated category generated by the Springer…

In this paper we define some new labellings for trees, called the in-improper and out-improper odd-graceful labellings such that some trees labelled with the new labellings can induce graceful graphs having at least a cycle. We, next, apply…
We introduce and develop the theory of metric sheaves. A metric sheaf $\A$ is defined on a topological space $X$ such that each fiber is a metric model. We describe the construction of the generic model as the quotient space of the sheaf…
We study the full set of solutions to the ADHM equation as an affine algebraic set, the ADHM variety. We gather the points of the ADHM variety into subvarieties according to the dimension of the stabilizing subspace. We compute dimension,…
This paper is the first in a series of papers in which we define and study a category of "sheaves of $\mathcal Z$-modules on the set of alcoves" that carries important information on the category of representations of semisimple Lie…
Spurious ambiguity is the phenomenon whereby distinct derivations in grammar may assign the same structural reading, resulting in redundancy in the parse search space and inefficiency in parsing. Understanding the problem depends on…
Discussed is the structure of non-trivial counterterms that occur in the systematic gauge-invariant perturbation theory with unstable fields introduced in [hep-ph/9802307].
We introduce a notion of a sheaf of vector spaces on a graph, and develop the foundations of homology theories for such sheaves. One sheaf invariant, its "maximum excess," has a number of remarkable properties. It has a simple definition,…
The near universal condemnation of proxy discrimination hides a disagreement over what it is. This work surveys various notions of proxy and proxy discrimination found in prior work and represents them in a common framework. These notions…
This article is preface to the SIGMA special issue "Tensor Models, Formalism and Applications", http://www.emis.de/journals/SIGMA/Tensor_Models.html. The issue is a collection of eight excellent, up to date reviews on random tensor models.…
After discussing two senses in which the notion of undecidability is used, we present a survey of undecidable decision problems arising in various branches of mathematics.
I present a quick overview of the current status of Chiral perturbation theory in the meson sector. To illustrate the successes and some problems in the description of the phenomenology, I focus on a few selected examples that are relevant…
In this paper, we carry out several computations involving graded (or $\mathbb{G}_{\mathrm{m}}$-equivariant) perverse-coherent sheaves on the nilpotent cone of a reductive group in good characteristic. In the first part of the paper, we…
The apparently trifling unexpected hanging paradox has generated an enormous philosophical literature. We introduce the mathematician to this literature, paying special attention to aspects that involve nontrivial mathematics. This xxx…
We give a Tannakian description for categories of l-adic perverse sheaves on semiabelian varieties which combines a construction of Gabber and Loeser for algebraic tori with a generic vanishing theorem for the cohomology of constructible…
In this paper, we study deformations of nonsingular Poisson varieties, deformations of Poisson invertible sheaves and simultaneous deformations of nonsingular Poisson varieties and Poisson invertible sheaves, which extend flat deformation…
A fairly general procedure is studied to perturbate a multivariate density satisfying a weak form of multivariate symmetry, and to generate a whole set of non-symmetric densities. The approach is general enough to encompass a number of…
When $W$ is a finite Coxeter group acting by its reflection representation on $E$, we describe the category ${\mathsf{Perv}}_W(E_{\mathbb C}, {\mathcal{H}}_{\mathbb C})$ of $W$-equivariant perverse sheaves on $E_{\mathbb C}$, smooth with…
We define a new perverse t-exact pullback operation on derived categories of constructible sheaves which generalizes most perverse t-exact functors in sheaf theory, such as microlocalization, the Fourier-Sato transform and vanishing cycles.…
