The quantum double $D(G)=\Bbb C(G)\rtimes \Bbb C G$ of a finite group plays an important role in the Kitaev model for quantum computing, as well as in associated TQFT's, as a kind of Poincar\'e group. We interpret the known construction of…

A super-modular category is a unitary pre-modular category with M\"uger center equivalent to the symmetric unitary category of super-vector spaces. Super-modular categories are important alternatives to modular categories as any unitary…

Whittaker sheaves are ubiquitous in geometric representation theory; however, their definition requires one to restrict the sheaf-theoretic setting to either \'etale sheaves or $D$-modules. Gaitsgory and Lysenko proposed a solution to this…

Braverman and Finkelberg recently proposed the geometric Satake correspondence for the affine Kac-Moody group $G_\aff$ [Braverman A., Finkelberg M., arXiv:0711.2083]. They conjecture that intersection cohomology sheaves on the Uhlenbeck…

We construct modular categories from Hecke algebras at roots of unity. For a special choice of the framing parameter, we recover the Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants of closed 3-manifolds constructed from the quantum groups U_q sl(N) by…

For a connected reductive group $ G $ defined over a number field $ k $, we construct the Schwartz space $ \mathcal{S}(G(k)\backslash G(\mathbb{A})) $. This space is an adelic version of Casselman's Schwartz space $…

Let G be a complex algebraic semi-simple adjoint group and X a smooth complete symmetric G-variety. Let L_i be the irreducible G-equivariant intersection cohomology complexes on X, and L the direct sum of the L_i. Let E= Ext(L,L) be the…

We introduce and study kernel algebras, i.e., algebras in the category of sheaves on a square of a scheme, where the latter category is equipped with a monoidal structure via a natural convolution operation. We show that many interesting…

Let $L$ be the function field of a projective space ${\mathbb P}^n_k$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic zero, and $H$ be the group of projective transformations. An $H$-sheaf ${\mathcal V}$ on ${\mathbb P}^n_k$ is a…

This thesis provides a partial answer to a question posed by Greg Kuperberg in q-alg/9712003 and again by Justin Roberts as problem 12.18 in "Problems on invariants of knots and 3-manifolds", math.GT/0406190, essentially: "Can one describe…

We compute the convolution product on the equivariant K-groups of the cyclic quiver variety. We get a q-analogue of double-loop algebras, closely related to the toroidal quantum groups previously studied by the authors. We also give a…

We construct the geometric Satake equivalence for quasi-split reductive groups over nonarchimedean local fields, using \'etale Artin-Tate motives with $\mathbb{Z}[\frac{1}{p}]$-coefficients. We consider local fields of both equal and mixed…

We consider homological mirror symmetry in the context of hypertoric varieties, showing that appropriate categories of B-branes (that is, coherent sheaves) on an additive hypertoric variety match a category of A-branes on a Dolbeault…

We consider the joint system of equivariant quantum differential equations (qDE) and qKZ difference equations for the Grassmannian $G(k,n)$, which parametrizes $k$-dimensional subspaces of $\mathbb{C}^n$. First, we establish a connection…

For a Grothendieck category C which, via a Z-generating sequence (O(n))_{n in Z}, is equivalent to the category of "quasi-coherent modules" over an associated Z-algebra A, we show that under suitable cohomological conditions "taking…

Let $G$ be a connected semisimple group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic 0. Let $Y=G/H$ be a spherical homogeneous space of $G$, and let $Y'$ be a spherical embedding of $Y$. Let $k_0$ be a subfield of $k$. Let $G_0$…

In this paper, we translate the Springer theory of Weyl group representations into the language of symplectic topology. Given a semisimple complex group G, we describe a Lagrangian brane in the cotangent bundle of the adjoint quotient g/G…

A key tool for the study of an affine Hecke algebra $\mathcal{H}$ is provided by Springer theory of the Langlands dual group via the realization of $\mathcal{H}$ as equivariant $K$-theory of the Steinberg variety. We prove a similar…

In this thesis we study two main topics which culminate in a proof that four distinct definitions of the equivariant derived category of a smooth algebraic group $G$ acting on a variety $X$ are in fact equivalent. In the first part of this…

Let $\Gamma$ be a lattice in a locally compact group $G$. In earlier work, we used $KK$-theory to equip the $K$-groups of any $\Gamma$-$C^{*}$-algebra on which the commensurator of $\Gamma$ acts with Hecke operators. When $\Gamma$ is…
