We start with a small paradigm shift about group representations, namely the observation that restriction to a subgroup can be understood as an extension-of-scalars. We deduce that, given a group $G$, the derived and the stable categories…
We prove an analog of the Gauss-Bonnet formula for constructible sheaves on reductive groups. As a corollary from this formula we get that if a perverse sheaf on a reductive group is equivariant under the adjoint action, then its Euler…
We develop sheaf theory in the context of difference algebraic geometry. We introduce categories of difference sheaves and develop the appropriate cohomology theories. As specializations, we get difference Galois cohomology, difference…
We provide three functorial extensions of the equivalence between localic etale groupoids and their quantales. The main result is a biequivalence between the bicategory of localic etale groupoids, with bi-actions as 1-cells, and a…
Given a general finite group $G$, we consider several categories built on it, their Grothendieck topologies and resulting sheaf categories. For a certain class of transporter categories and their quotients, equipped with atomic topology, we…
A diagram of groupoid correspondences is a homomorphism to the bicategory of \'etale groupoid correspondences. We study examples of such diagrams, including complexes of groups and self-similar higher-rank graphs. We encode the diagram in a…
This paper affirms a conjecture of MacPherson: that the derived category of cellular sheaves is equivalent to the derived category of cellular cosheaves. We give a self-contained treatment of cellular sheaves and cosheaves and note that…
Moerdijk's site description for equivariant sheaf toposes on open topological groupoids is used to give a proof for the (known, but apparently unpublished) proposition that if H is a strictly full subgroupoid of an open topological groupoid…
We consider the category of perverse sheaves on a complex vector space smooth with respect to a stratification given by an arrangement of hyperplanes with real equations. As shown in an earlier wotk of two of the authors, this category can…
We give a new characterization of partial groups as a subcategory of symmetric (simplicial) sets. This subcategory has an explicit reflection, which permits one to compute colimits in the category of partial groups. We also introduce the…
We study the equivariant cohomology of spherical perverse sheaves on the affine Grassmannian of a connected reductive group $G$ with support in the affine Grassmannian of any Levi subgroup $L$ of $G$. In doing so, we extend the work of…
This is a concise introduction to the theory of Lie groupoids, with emphasis in their role as models for stacks. After some preliminaries, we review the foundations on Lie groupoids, and we carefully study equivalences and proper groupoids.…
We study a category of semiinfinite sheaves on the affine flag variety of a connected reductive algebraic group, with coefficients in a field of arbitrary characteristic, generalizing some results of Gaitsgory and showing that this category…
Every small monoidal category with universal finite joins of central idempotents is monoidally equivalent to the category of global sections of a sheaf of local monoidal categories on a topological space. Every small stiff monoidal category…
We give a simple description of the category of sheaves on the small etale site of an irreducible scheme whose local rings are geometrically unibranch and henselian, which affords a characterization of representable sheaves.
Let X be a smooth or proper variety defined over a finite field. The geometric etale fundamental group of X is a normal subgroup of the Weil group, so conjugation gives it a Weil action. We consider the pro-Q_l-algebraic completion of the…
We consider orbifolds as diffeological spaces. This gives rise to a natural notion of differentiable maps between orbifolds, making them into a subcategory of diffeology. We prove that the diffeological approach to orbifolds is equivalent…
If a Quillen model category can be specified using a certain logical syntax (intuitively, ``is algebraic/combinatorial enough''), so that it can be defined in any category of sheaves, then the satisfaction of Quillen's axioms over any site…
We call an affine algebraic supergroup quasireductive if its underlying algebraic group is reductive. We obtain some results about the structure and representations of reductive supergroups.
We consider the problem of existence of representations of topological groupoids on a principal bundle and the classification of such representations up to gauge transformation. Such representations naturally occur in various contexts such…
