We give an explicit description of character sheaves for the symmetric pairs associated to inner involutions of the special linear groups. We make use of the general strategy given in [VX1] and central character consideration. We also…

We determine character sheaves for symmetric pairs associated to spin groups. In particular, we determine the cupsidal character sheaves and show that they can be obtained via the nearby cycle construction of [GVX] and its generalisation in…

In this paper we give a complete classification of cyclically graded semisimple Lie algebras that afford cuspidal character sheaves and determine the support of the cuspidal character sheaves. This constitutes a major step towards the…

We study a class of perverse sheaves on some spherical varieties which include the strata of the De Concini-Procesi completion of a symmetric variety. This is a generalization of the theory of (parabolic) character sheaves.

We construct a modular generalized Springer correspondence for any classical group, by generalizing to the modular setting various results of Lusztig in the case of characteristic-$0$ coefficients. We determine the cuspidal pairs in all…

We show in this paper that in the context of graded Lie algebras, all cuspidal character sheaves arise from a nearby-cycle construction followed by a Fourier--Sato transform in a very specific manner. Combined with results of the last two…

This paper contains an exposition of the theory of character sheaves for reductive groups and some attempts to extend it to other cases: unipotent groups, reductive groups modulo the unipotent radical of a parabolic.

In this paper we introduce a new ingredient, invariant systems of differential equations, to our study of character sheaves on graded Lie algebras. The character sheaves we construct in this paper, together with the ones constructed in…

Many two-dimensional classical field theories have hidden symmetries that form an infinite-dimensional algebra. For those examples that correspond to effective descriptions of compactified superstring theories, the duality group is expected…

This is a survey article on the Springer correspondence for symmetric spaces. We discuss various generalization of the theory of the Springer correspondence for reductive groups to symmetric spaces and exotic symmetric spaces associated to…

Motivated by statistical applications, this paper introduces Cauchy identities for characters of the compact classical groups. These identities generalize the well-known Cauchy identity for characters of the unitary group, which are Schur…

We determine cuspidal character sheaves explicitly for all (GIT) stably graded exceptional Lie algebras.

In this article we formulate and prove the main theorems of the theory of character sheaves on unipotent groups over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0. In particular, we show that every admissible pair for such a group G…

We present a nearby cycle sheaf construction in the context of symmetric spaces. This construction can be regarded as a replacement for the Grothendieck-Springer resolution in classical Springer theory.

In this note we study character sheaves for graded Lie algebras arising from inner automorphisms of special linear groups and Vinberg's type II classical graded Lie algebras.

We study a class of perverse sheaves on the variety of pairs (P,gU_P) where P runs through a conjugacy class of parabolics in a connected reductive group G and gU_P runs through G/U_P. This is a generalization of the theory of character…

Classical shadows (CS) have emerged as a powerful way to estimate many properties of quantum states based on random measurements and classical post-processing. In their original formulation, they come with optimal (or close to) sampling…

The characteristic map for the symmetric group is an isomorphism relating the representation theory of the symmetric group to symmetric functions. An analogous isomorphism is constructed for the symmetric space of symplectic forms over a…

Mirkovi\'c introduced the notion of character sheaves on a Lie algebra. Due to their simple geometric characterization, character sheaves on Lie algebras can be thought of as a simplified model for Lusztig's theory of character sheaves on…
