We construct a categorification of the maximal commutative subalgebra of the type $A$ Hecke algebra. Specifically, we propose a monoidal functor from the (symmetric) monoidal category of coherent sheaves on the flag Hilbert scheme to the…

Using Morita type stratifications, we establish a one-to-one correspondence between geometric vector fields on a separated differentiable stack and stratified vector fields on its orbit space. This correspondence enables us to derive a…

Let $G$ be an algebraic group and let $X$ be a smooth $G$-variety with two orbits: an open orbit and a a closed orbit of codimension $1$. We give an algebraic description of the category of $G$-equivariant vector bundles on $X$ under a mild…

We investigate the theory of affine group schemes over a symmetric tensor category, with particular attention to the tangent space at the identity. We show that this carries the structure of a restricted Lie algebra, and can be viewed as…

The automorphism groups of the 27 lines on the smooth cubic surface or the 28 bitangents to the general quartic plane curve are well-known to be closely related to the Weyl groups of $E\_6$ and $E\_7$. We show how classical…

This article is a survey of recent work of the author, together with Markus Banagl, Eric Leichtnam, Rafe Mazzeo, and Paolo Piazza, on the Hodge theory of stratified spaces. We discuss how to resolve a Thom-Mather stratified space to a…

The symmetries described by Pin groups are the result of combining a finite number of discrete reflections in (hyper)planes. The current work shows how an analysis using geometric algebra provides a picture complementary to that of the…

It is well-known that the $T$-fixed points of a Schubert variety in the flag variety $GL_n(\mathbb{C})/B$ can be characterized purely combinatorially in terms of Bruhat order on the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$. In a recent preprint,…

We develop a framework to construct geometric representations of finite groups $G$ through the correspondence between real toric spaces $X^{\mathbb R}$ and simplicial complexes with characteristic matrices. We give a combinatorial…

Let X=G/P be a complex flag manifold and E->X be a G-homogeneous holomorphic vector bundle. Fix a U-invariant Kaehler metric on X with U in G maximal compact. We study the sheaf of nearly holomorphic sections and show that the space of…

We prove a conjecture by Lusztig, which describes the tensor categories of perverse sheaves on affine flag manifolds, with tensor structure provided by truncated convolution, in terms of the Langlands dual group. We also give a geometric…

We prove a conjecture which expresses the bigraded Poisson-de Rham homology of the nilpotent cone of a semisimple Lie algebra in terms of the generalized (one-variable) Kostka polynomials, via a formula suggested by Lusztig. This allows us…

In this note we realize the sheaf of Cherednik algebras $H_{1, c, X, G}$ on a general good complex orbifold $X/G$, originally introduced by Etingof for smooth complex varieties with an action by a finite group, by gluing sheaves of flat…

Let $O_F$ be the ring of integers of a totally real field $F$ of degree $g$. We study the reduction of the moduli space of separably polarized abelian $O_F$-varieties of dimension $g$ modulo $p$ for a fixed prime $p$. The invariants and…

We study the affine variety $L_{n}(\mathfrak{g})$ of Lie algebra representations, the collection of all homomorphisms from an arbitrary $n$-dimensional Lie algebra into a fixed real semi-simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Using techniques…

Rindler wedges are fundamental localization regions in AQFT. They are determined by the one-parameter group of boost symmetries fixing the wedge. The algebraic canonical construction of the free field provided by Brunetti-Guido-Longo (BGL)…

We undertake a detailed study of the geometry of Bottacin's Poisson structures on Hilbert schemes of points in Poisson surfaces, i.e. smooth complex surfaces equipped with an effective anticanonical divisor. We focus on three themes that,…

We construct an explicit isomorphism between (truncations of) quiver Hecke algebras and Elias-Williamson's diagrammatic endomorphism algebras of Bott-Samelson bimodules. As a corollary, we deduce that the decomposition numbers of these…

For an arbitrary field K, let I be an ideal in the ring K[[x,y]] expressible as a polynomial in either the pair of ideals (x, y^4) and (x,y) or the pair (x,y^3) and (x^2, y). Let G be the group of automorphisms of K[[x,y]] sending the ideal…

We construct a stratification of the punctual Hilbert scheme of points on a non-reduced and nodal plane curve, $x^uy^v=0$. Each stratum is indexed by a new combinatorial object we define: a weak diagonal partition. The approach is based on…
