Fix a non-stacky component of the moduli of stable Higgs bundles, on which the Hitchin fibration is proper. We show that any smooth Hitchin fiber determines a microsheaf on the global nilpotent cone, that distinct fibers give rise to…
We propose a Wigner quasiprobability distribution function for Hamiltonian systems in spaces of constant curvature --in this paper on hyperboloids--, which returns the correct marginals and has the covariance of the Shapiro functions under…
Let G be a reductive algebraic group, with nilpotent cone N and flag variety G/B. We construct an exact functor from perverse sheaves on N to locally constant sheaves on G/B, and we use it to study Ext-groups of simple perverse sheaves on N…
In this paper we establish a connection between the associated variety of a representation and the existence of certain degenerate Whittaker functionals, for both smooth and K-finite vectors, for all quasi-split real reductive groups,…

Let $V$ be a simple vertex operator algebra and $G$ be a finite nilpotent group of automorphisms of $V.$ We prove the following in this paper: (1) There is a Galois correspondence between subgroups of $G$ and the vertex operator subalgebras…
For any positive integer $n$, let $A_n=\mathbb{C}[t_1,\dots,t_n]$, $W_n=\text{Der}(A_n)$ and $\Delta_n=\text{Span}\{\frac{\partial}{\partial{t_1}},\dots,\frac{\partial}{\partial{t_n}}\}$. Then $(W_n, \Delta_n)$ is a Whittaker pair. A…
For a simple, simply connected, complex group G, we prove the existence of a flat projective connection on the bundle of nonabelian theta functions on the moduli space of semistable parabolic G-bundles over families of smooth projective…
We show that hyperoctahedral Whittaker functions---diagonalizing an open quantum Toda chain with one-sided boundary potentials of Morse type---satisfy a dual system of difference equations in the spectral variable. This extends a well-known…

Let $G(F)$ be a split reductive group over a $p$-adic field $F$ and let $(\pi_{St},V)$ be a (generalized) Steinberg representation of $G(F)$. It is known that the space of Iwahori fixed vectors in $V$ is one dimensional. The Iwahori Hecke…
