If $G$ is a compact Lie group, $T$ a maximal torus in $G$ (with Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$ and $\mathfrak{t}$ respectively) and $W$ the corresponding Weyl group, then the Berry-Robbins problem for $G$, as formulated by Sir Michael Atiyah…

We prove that for a compact subgroup $H$ of an almost connected locally compact Hausdorff group $G$, the following properties are mutually equivalent: (1) $H$ is a maximal compact subgroup of $G$, (2) $G/H$ is contractible, (3) $G/H$ is…

For a reductive group $G$, we introduce a notion of singular support for cocomplete dualizable DG-categories equipped with a strong $G$-action. This is done by considering the singular support of the sheaves of matrix coefficients arising…
