In this note, we consider perverse sheaves on the nilpotent cone. We prove orthogonality relations for the equivariant category of sheaves on the nilpotent cone in a method similar to Lusztig's for character sheaves. We also consider…

Given a quantized enveloping algebra $U_q(\mathfrak g)$ and a pair of dominant weights ($\lambda$, $\mu$), we extend a conjecture raised by Lusztig in \cite{Lusztig:1992}to a more general form and then prove this extended Lusztig's…

Let $G$ be a complex reductive algebraic group. In this paper, we give a geometric definition of a unipotent representation of $G$. Our definition generalizes the notion of a special unipotent representation, due to Barbasch-Vogan and…

We associate to each nilpotent orbit of a real semisimple Lie algebra $g_o$ a weighted Vogan diagram, that is a Dynkin diagram with an involution of the diagram, a subset of painted nodes and a weight for each node. Every nilpotent element…
