We develop a geometric approach to the regularized double shuffle relations for multiple zeta values, based on convolution of perverse sheaves on $\mathbb{C}^*$ and inspired by the approach of Deligne and Terasoma. We introduce…

We relate shuffle algebras, as defined by Nichols, Feigin-Odesskii and Rosso, to perverse sheaves on symmetric products of the complex line (i.e., on the spaces of monic polynomials stratified by multiplicities of roots). More precisely, we…

Let $U$ be a smooth $\mathbb C$-scheme, $f:U\to\mathbb A^1$ a regular function, and $X=$Crit$(f)$ the critical locus, as a $\mathbb C$-subscheme of $U$. Then one can define the "perverse sheaf of vanishing cycles" $PV_{U,f}$, a perverse…

This is a survey of arXiv:1803.10151v4, arXiv:1807.07786v2 and arXiv:1908.00444v2 by H. Furusho and the author. The purpose of this series of papers is: (1) to give a proof that associator relations imply double shuffle relations,…

Let $pi:X\to\Delta$ be a one-parameter degeneration whose central fiber $X_0$ has a single ordinary double point. The nearby- and vanishing-cycle formalism determines a canonical perverse sheaf on $X_0$, obtained from the variation morphism…

This paper is the first in a series which aims at: (a) giving a proof that the associator relations between multizeta values imply the double shuffle and regularization (DSR) ones, alternative to that of the second-named author's 2010…

This is a mostly expository paper, intended to explain a very natural relationship between two a priori distinct notions appearing in the literature: Generic Vanishing in the context of vanishing theorems and birational geometry, and…

It is proved that Drinfel'd's pentagon equation implies the generalized double shuffle relation. As a corollary, an embedding from the Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller group $GRT_1$ into Racinet's double shuffle group $DMR_0$ is obtained, which…

We study a one parameter degeneration of Calabi Yau threefolds whose central fiber contains a single ordinary double point. Using the nearby and vanishing cycle formalism, we construct a canonical perverse object on the singular fiber from…

A reduced divisor on a nonsingular variety defines the sheaf of logarithmic 1-forms. We introduce a certain coherent sheaf whose double dual coincides with this sheaf. It has some nice properties, for example, the residue exact sequence…

We prove shuffle relations which relate a product of regularised integrals of classical symbols to regularised nested (Chen) iterated integrals, which hold if all the symbols involved have non-vanishing residue. This is true in particular…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of a bimodule with a factorization structure (BFS) and show that such a structure gives rise to an algebra morphism. We then prove that this framework offers an interpretation of the geometric…

This paper gives a geometric interpretation of the generalized (including the regularization relation) double shuffle relation for multiple $L$-values. Precisely it is proved that Enriquez' mixed pentagon equation implies the relations. As…

To describe the double shuffle relations between multiple polylogarithm values at $N$th roots of unity, Racinet attached to each finite cyclic group $G$ of order $N$ and each group embedding $\iota : G \to \mathbb{C}^{\times}$, a…

In this paper, we introduce certain new features of the shuffle algebra, that will allow us to obtain explicit formulas for the isomorphism between its Drinfeld double and the elliptic Hall algebra.

We show that there is a perverse sheaf on a fine moduli space of stable sheaves on a smooth projective Calabi-Yau 3-fold, which is locally the perverse sheaf of vanishing cycles for a local Chern-Simons functional, possibly after taking an…

We prove a criterion for determining whether the normalization of a complex analytic space on which the constant sheaf is perverse is a rational homology manifold, using a perverse sheaf known as the multiple-point complex. This perverse…

In the first half of the paper, we translate in the geometric situation of Drinfeld varieties, the principal results of the Harris and Taylor's book. We give in particular the restriction to the open strata of the vanishing cycles sheaves…

The paper continues the discussion of symplectic aspects of Picard-Lefschetz theory begun in "Vanishing cycles and mutation" (this archive). There we explained how to associate to a suitable fibration over a two-dimensional disc a…

We show that there is a natural perverse sheaf on the moduli space of semistable sheaves on a smooth projective Calabi-Yau 3-fold which is locally the perverse sheaf of vanishing cycles for a local Chern-Simons functional. This gives us a…
