Kapranov and Schechtman defined the category FP of factorized perverse sheaves on Sym(C) smooth along the stratification given by multiplicities and with values in a braided monoidal category V. We define for each d\in N the category…

We develop a formalism to address statistical pattern recognition of graph valued data. Of particular interest is the case of all graphs having the same number of uniquely labeled vertices. When the vertex labels are latent, such graphs are…

This paper is the first in a series. The main goal of the series is to present a geometric construction of certain remarkable tensor categories arising from quantum groups coresponding to the value of deformation parameter $q$ equal to a…

We investigate certain categories, associated by Fiebig with the geometric representation of a Coxeter system, via sheaves on Bruhat graphs. We modify Fiebig's definition of translation functors in order to extend it to the singular setting…

We define the graph minor category and prove that the category of contravariant representations of the graph minor category over a Noetherian ring is locally Noetherian. This can be regarded as a categorification of the Robertson--Seymour…

We give a motivated introduction to the theory of perverse sheaves, culminating in the Decomposition Theorem of Beilinson, Bernstein, Deligne and Gabber. A goal of this survey is to show how the theory develops naturally from classical…

Let Q be an affine quiver of type A. Let C be the associated generalized Cartan matrix. Let U^- be the negative part of the quantized enveloping algebra attached to C. In terms of perverse sheaves on the moduli space of representations of a…

Sawin recently gave an axiomatic characterization of multiple Dirichlet series over the function field $\mathbb{F}_{q}(T)$ and proved their existence by exhibiting the coefficients as trace functions of specific perverse sheaves. However,…

Let X be a smooth, complete, geometrically connected curve over a field of characteristic p. The geometric Langlands conjecture states that to each irreducible rank n local system E on X one can attach a perverse sheaf on the moduli stack…

Algebraic structures involving both multiplications and comultiplications (such as, e.g., bialgebras or Hopf algebras) can be encoded using PROPs (categories with PROducts and Permutations) of Adams and MacLane. To encode such structures on…

A classification of spanning surfaces for alternating links is provided up to genus, orientability, and a new invariant that we call aggregate slope. That is, given an alternating link, we determine all possible combinations of genus,…

We study one-parameter conifold degenerations whose central fiber has finitely many ordinary double points. Working within a deliberately minimal finite-node bulk/localized-sector formalism, we identify the first categorical layer suggested…

In this paper we study the derived category of sheaves on the affine Grassmannian of a complex reductive group G, contructible with respect to the stratification by G(C[[x]])-orbits. Following ideas of Ginzburg and…

We give an explicit construction of the stack of microlocal perverse sheaves on the projective cotangent bundle of a complex manifold. Microlocal perverse sheaves will be represented as complexes of analytic ind-sheaves which have recently…

We consider two-dimensional N=(2,2) supersymmetric gauge theory on discretized Riemann surfaces. We find that the discretized theory can be efficiently described by using graph theory, where the bosonic and fermionic fields are regarded as…

We give a complete (global) characterization of complex perverse sheaves on semi-abelian varieties in terms of their cohomology jump loci. Our results generalize Schnell's work on perverse sheaves on complex abelian varieties, as well as…

This survey paper, based on a talk at the International Congress of Basic Science in Beijing in July 2025, summarizes joint work of the authors with M. Kontsevich [1408.2673] establishing the relation between the ``Algebra of the Infrared"…

Twisted diagrams are "diagrams" with components in different categories. Structure maps are defined using auxiliary data which consists of functors relating the various categories to each other. Prime examples of the construction are…

To any moment graph G we assign a subcategory V of the category of sheaves on G together with an exact structure. We show that in the case that the graph is associated to a non-critical block of the equivariant category O over a…

We define a new geometric object--the stack of local systems with restricted variation. We formulate a version of the categorical geometric Langlands conjecture that makes sense for any constructible sheaf theory (such as l-adic sheaves).…
