We compute the local intersection cohomology of the irreducible components of varieties of complexes, by using Lusztig's geometric approach to quantum groups and explicit constructions of elements of Lusztig's canonical bases.

The article describes a purely topological counterpart of the $\epsilon$-factorization of constants in the functional equations (which is a key ingredient in the interplay between L-functions and classical automorphic forms). We consider…

Let $R$ be commutative Noetherian ring and let $\fa$ be an ideal of $R$. For complexes $X$ and $Y$ of $R$--modules we investigate the invariant $\inf{\mathbf R}\Gamma_{\fa}({\mathbf R}\Hom_R(X,Y))$ in certain cases. It is shown that, for…

After recent work of Hill, Hopkins, and Ravenel on the Kervaire invariant one problem, as well as Adams' solution of the Hopf invariant one problem, an immediate consequence of Curtis conjecture is that the set of spherical classes in…

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…

This is primarily an expository note showing that earlier work of Lai on CR geometry provides a clean interpretation, in terms of a Gauss map, for an adjunction formula for embedded surfaces in an almost complex four manifold. We will see…

Let G be a connected complex reductive group. A well known theorem of I. Losev's says that a smooth affine spherical G-variety X is uniquely determined by its weight monoid, which is the set of irreducible representations of G that occur in…

We prove that the intersection cohomology of the Baily-Borel compactification of a complex Shimura variety is identified with the top weight quotient of the mixed Hodge structure on the reductive Borel-Serre compactification. This yields…

Let $G$ be a classical group defined over a local field $F$ of characteristic zero. Let $\pi$ be an irreducible admissible representation $\pi$ of $G(F)$, which is of Casselman-Wallach type if $F$ is archimedean. If $\pi$ has a generic…

For $G = \mathrm{GL}_2, \mathrm{SL}_2, \mathrm{PGL}_2$ we compute the intersection E-polynomials and the intersection Poincar\'e polynomials of the $G$-character variety of a compact Riemann surface $C$ and of the moduli space of $G$-Higgs…

To a torus T over a local field F and a subset of its character module subject to certain properties, we associate a canonical double cover of the topological group T(F). We further associate an L-group to this double cover and establish a…

For a smooth projective surface $X$ satisfying $H_1(X,\mathbb{Z}) = 0$ and $w \in H^2(X,\mu_r)$, we study deformation invariants of the pair $(X,w)$. Choosing a Brauer-Severi variety $Y$ (or, equivalently, Azumaya algebra $\mathcal{A}$)…

Let G be a connected reductive complex algebraic group. This paper is devoted to the space Z of meromorphic quasimaps from a curve into an affine spherical G-variety X. The space Z may be thought of as an algebraic model for the loop space…

In this paper, we reformulate conjectural formulas for the arithmetic intersection numbers of special cycles on unitary Shimura varieties with minuscule parahoric level structure in terms of weighted counting of lattices containing special…

We describe the image, under the local Langlands correspondence for tori, of the characters of a torus which are trivial on its Iwahori subgroup. Let $k$ be a non-archimedian local field. Let $\boldsymbol{G}$ be a connected reductive group…

This paper establishes an arithmetic intersection formula for central L-derivatives in higher weights.We prove that for a general cusp form (extending the previous result for newforms), the derivative is represented by the global height…

For an arbitrary reductive group $G$, we compute the infinitesimal automorphisms of $L$-valued principal $G$-Higgs bundles over a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$, extending known results for $\Omega_X^{1}$-valued $G$-Higgs bundles. Using this…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over $\CC$ and let $G^{\vee}$ be the Langlands dual group. Crystals for $G^{\vee}$ were introduced by Kashiwara as certain ``combinatorial skeletons'' of finite-dimensional representations of…

By the unfolding method, Rankin-Selberg L-functions for ${\rm GL}(n)\times{\rm GL}(m)$ can be expressed in terms of period integrals. These period integrals actually define invariant forms on tensor products of the relevant automorphic…

We continue the study of intersection algebras $\mathcal B = \mathcal B_R(I, J)$ of two ideals $I, J$ in a commutative Noetherian ring $R$. In particular, we exploit the semigroup ring and toric structures in order to calculate various…
