We prove a microlocal characterisation of character sheaves on a reductive Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of sufficiently large positive characteristic: a perverse irreducible G-equivariant sheaf is a character sheaf if and…
In this article we formulate and prove the main theorems of the theory of character sheaves on unipotent groups over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0. In particular, we show that every admissible pair for such a group G…
We establish part of the statement of the geometric Langlands conjecture for l-adic sheaves over a field of positive characteristic. Namely, we show that the category of automorphic sheaves with nilpotent singular support is equivalent to…
In characteristic zero, Bezrukavnikov has shown that the category of perverse coherent sheaves on the nilpotent cone of a simply connected semisimple algebraic group is quasi-hereditary, and that it is derived-equivalent to the category of…
This paper is an introduction to the use of perverse sheaves with positive characteristic coefficients in modular representation theory. In the first part, we survey results relating singularities in finite and affine Schubert varieties and…
We classify the unipotent character sheaves on a fixed connected component of a reductive algebraic group under a mild hypothesis on the characteristic of the ground field.
We prove that for extended Dynkin quivers, simple perverse sheaves in Lusztig category are characterized by the nilpotency of their singular support. This proves a conjecture of Lusztig in the case of affine quivers. For cyclic quivers, we…
Let G be a reductive connected group over the algebraic closure of a finite field. In this paper we give the classification of character sheaves on G in categorical terms (as a categorical centre). Previously such a classification was known…
We continue the study of character sheaves on a not necessarily connected reductive group. We prove orthogonality formulas for certain characteristic functions.
The goal of this paper is to explain how basic properties of perverse sheaves sometimes translate via Riemann-Hilbert correspondences (in both characteristic $0$ and characteristic $p$) to highly non-trivial properties of singularities,…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over $F_q$, where $q$ is large enough and the center of $G$ is connected. We are concerned with Lusztig's theory of {\em character sheaves}, a geometric version of the classical character theory of the…
We define a stratification of the moduli stack of coherent sheaves on an elliptic curve which allows us (1) to give an explicit description of the irreducible components of the global nilpotent cone of elliptic curves, (2) to establish an…
We identify the category Shv_{Nilp}(Bun_G) of automorphic sheaves with nilpotent singular support with its own dual, and relate this structure to the Serre functor on Shv_{Nilp}(Bun_G) and miraculous duality.
We propose the notion of perverse coherent sheaves for symplectic singularities and study its properties. In particular, it gives a basis of simple objects in the Grothendieck group of Poisson sheaves. We show that perverse coherent bases…
In the first section we study a functor of Bezrukavnikov, Finkelberg and Ostrik defined on character sheaves; we compute it in a Grothendieck group taking weights into account. In the second section we enlarge the class of character sheaves…
Continuing the study of perverse sheaves on the nilpotent cone of a $\mathbb{Z}/m$-graded Lie algebra initiated by Lusztig--Yun, we study in this work the parabolic induction and introduce the notion of supercuspidal sheaves on the…
Recently, the singular support and the characteristic cycle of an \'etale sheaf on a smooth variety over a perfect field are constructed by Beilinson and Saito, respectively. In this article, we extend the singular support to a relative…
In this note, we consider perverse sheaves on the nilpotent cone. We prove orthogonality relations for the equivariant category of sheaves on the nilpotent cone in a method similar to Lusztig's for character sheaves. We also consider…
We define the notion of character sheaf on a possibly disconnected reductive group. We show that the restriction functor carries a character sheaf to a direct sum of character sheaves.
We begin the study of character sheaves on a not necessarily connected reductive group, extending the known theory for connected groups.
