We survey some aspects of the pseudo-differential Weyl calculus for irreducible unitary representations of nilpotent Lie groups, ranging from the classical ideas to recently obtained results. The classical Weyl-H\"ormander calculus is…

For a split reductive group scheme $G$ over a commutative ring $k$ with Weyl group $W$, there is an important functor $Rep(G,k) \to Rep(W,k)$ defined by taking the zero weight space. We prove that the restriction of this functor to the…

Kato developed an exotic Deligne-Langlands correspondence using a geometric model for the multiparameter affine Hecke algebra of type C, based on his exotic nilpotent cone. Achar-Henderson and Springer showed that this exotic nilpotent is…

Let G be a connected reductive group over a non-archimedean local field K, and assume that G splits over an unramified extension of K. We establish a local Langlands correspondence for irreducible unipotent representations of G. It comes as…

We decompose the fibers of the Springer resolution for the odd nilcone of the Lie superalgebra $\osp(2n+1,2n)$ into locally closed subsets. We use this decomposition to prove that almost all fibers are connected. However, in contrast with…

We derive a formula for the unramified Brauer group of a general class of rationally connected fourfolds birational to conic bundles over smooth threefolds. We produce new examples of conic bundles over P^3 where this formula applies and…

A fundamental problem from invariant theory is to describe the endomorphism algebra of multilinear functions on a representation V invariant under the action of a group G. According to Weyl's classic, a first main (later: fundamental)…

This is a survey paper about affine Hecke algebras. We start from scratch and discuss some algebraic aspects of their representation theory, referring to the literature for proofs. We aim in particular at the classification of irreducible…

We develop the theory of Poisson and Dirac manifolds of compact types, a broad generalization in Poisson and Dirac geometry of compact Lie algebras and Lie groups. We establish key structural results, including local normal forms, canonical…

We give the first two-dimensional pictorial presentation of Berele's correspondence \cite{Berele}, an analogue of the Robinson-Schensted (R-S) correspondence \cite{Robinson, Schensted} for the symplectic group $Sp(2n, \Cpx )$. From the…

We prove a conjecture which expresses the bigraded Poisson-de Rham homology of the nilpotent cone of a semisimple Lie algebra in terms of the generalized (one-variable) Kostka polynomials, via a formula suggested by Lusztig. This allows us…

This note is mostly an exposition of an unpublished result of Deligne, which introduces an analogue of perverse $t$-structure on the derived category of coherent sheaves on a Noetherian scheme with a dualizing complex. Construction extends…

We complete the determination of the generalised Springer correspondence for connected reductive algebraic groups, by proving a conjecture of Lusztig on the last open cases which occur for groups of type $E_8$.

Any deformation of a Weyl or Clifford algebra A can be realized through a `deforming map', i.e. a formal change of generators in A. This is true in particular if A is covariant under a Lie algebra g and its deformation is induced by some…

We re-examine some topics in representation theory of Lie algebras and Springer theory in a more general context, viewing the universal enveloping algebra as an example of the section ring of a quantization of a conical symplectic…

Let $G$ be a simply connected algebraic group of type $B,C$ or $D$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. We construct a Springer correspondence for the dual vector space of the Lie algebra of $G$. In particular, we…

Given a semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we can represent invariants of tensor products of fundamental representations of the quantum enveloping algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ using particular directed graphs called webs. In particular…

We give a new proof the arithmetic Hilbert-Samuel theorem by using classical reductions in the theory of coherent sheaves, a direct proof in the case of the projective space and the conservation of some numerical invariants, called…

Let G be a semisimple algebraic group over a field K whose characteristic is very good for G, and let sigma be any G-equivariant isomorphism from the nilpotent variety to the unipotent variety; the map sigma is known as a Springer…

We summarize some (mostly geometric) facts underlying the relation between 2D integrable sigma models and generalized Gross-Neveu models, emphasizing connections to the theory of nilpotent orbits, Springer resolutions and quiver varieties.…
