We prove a conjecture by Lusztig, which describes the tensor categories of perverse sheaves on affine flag manifolds, with tensor structure provided by truncated convolution, in terms of the Langlands dual group. We also give a geometric…
An enhanced algebraic group $\uG$ of $G=\GL(V)$ over $\bbc$ is a product variety $\GL(V)\times V$, endowed with an enhanced cross product. Associated with a natural tensor representation of $\uG$, there are naturally Levi and parabolic…
We study the coarse quotient $\mathfrak{t}^*//W^{\text{aff}}$ of the affine Weyl group $W^{\text{aff}}$ acting on a dual Cartan $\mathfrak{t}^*$ for some semisimple Lie algebra. Specifically, we classify sheaves on this space via a…
We define the group analogue of birational sheets, a construction performed by Losev for reductive Lie algebras. For G semisimple simply connected, we describe birational sheets in terms of Lusztig-Spaltenstein induction and we prove that…
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…
Let $W$ be a finite reflection group. For a given $w \in W$, the following assertion may or may not be satisfied: (*) The principal Bruhat order ideal of $w$ contains as many elements as there are regions in the inversion hyperplane…
We consider a fixed block for the equivariant perverse sheaves with nilpotent support in the $1$-graded ccomponent of a semisimple cyclically graded Lie algebra. We give a combinatorial parametrization of the simple objects in that block.
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 give an easy diagrammatical description of the parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials for the Weyl group $W_n$ of type $D_n$ with parabolic subgroup of type $A_n$ and consequently an explicit counting formula for the dimension of the…
These notes aim to give a first introduction to intersection cohomology and perverse sheaves with applications to representation theory or quantum groups in mind.
Double Bruhat cells in a semisimple group are intersections of cells in two Bruhat decompositions corresponding to two opposite Borel subgroups. They form a geometric framework for the study of total positivity in semisimple groups; they…
Perverse-Hodge complexes are objects in the derived category of coherent sheaves obtained from Hodge modules associated with Saito's decomposition theorem. We study perverse-Hodge complexes for Lagrangian fibrations and propose a symmetry…
We relate Nakajima Quiver Varieties (or, rather, their multiplicative version) with moduli spaces of perverse sheaves. More precisely, we consider a generalization of the concept of perverse sheaves: microlocal sheaves on a nodal curve X.…
Let X be the locally symmetric space associated to a reductive $\mathbb Q$-group G and an arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$. An L-module M is a combinatorial model of a constructible complex of sheaves on $\widehat X$, the reductive Borel-Serre…
In geometric representation theory, one often wishes to describe representations realized on spaces of invariant functions as trace functions of equivariant perverse sheaves. In the case of principal series representations of a connected…
The method of intersection spaces associates rational Poincar\'e complexes to singular stratified spaces. For a conifold transition, the resulting cohomology theory yields the correct count of all present massless 3-branes in type IIB…
The characteristic cycle of a complex of sheaves on a complex analytic space provides weak information about the complex; essentially, it yields the Euler characteristics of the hypercohomology of normal data to strata. We show how perverse…
We give an example of geometric construction (via Hecke correspondences) of certain representations of the affine Lie algebra $\hat{gl}_n$. The construction is similar to the one of [FK] for the Lie algebra $sl_n$. Given a surface with a…
In my 2009 paper at Inventiones, we determine the cohomology of Lubin-Tate spaces globally using the comparison theorem of Berkovich by computing the fibers at supersingular points of the perverse sheaf of vanishing cycle $\Psi$ of some…
In this short note we show that the Bruhat cells in real normal forms of semisimple Lie algebras enjoy the same property as their complex analogs: for any two elements $w$, $w'$ in the Weyl group $W(\mathfrak g)$, the corresponding real…
