We analyze irreducible perverse sheaves on abelian varieties, defined over the complex numbers or the algebraic closure of a finite field, whose Euler characteristic is zero. We give a description of such perverse sheaves under assumptions…

The aim of this paper is to identify a certain tensor category of perverse sheaves on the real loop Grassmannian of a real form $G_{\mathbb R}$ of a connected reductive complex algebraic group $G$ with the category of finite-dimensional…

Let A be a character sheaf on a reductive connected group G over an algebraically closed field. Assuming that the characteristic is not bad, we show that for certain conjugacy classes D in G the restriction of A to D is a local system up to…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce and study certain irreducible perverse l-adic sheaves on a reductive group G over a finite field (we call them gamma-sheaves). One can construct such a sheaf starting with (almost) every…

An intrinsic construction of the tensor category of finite dimensional representations of the Langlands dual group of G in terms of a tensor category of perverse sheaves on the loop group, LG, is given. The construction is applied to the…

Perverse schobers are categorifications of perverse sheaves. We construct a perverse schober on a partial compactification of the stringy K\"ahler moduli space (SKMS) associated by Halpern-Leistner and Sam to a quasi-symmetric…

Inspired by the foundational work of Bezrukavnikov and Chan \cite{BC24} on character sheaves for parahoric subgroups and an alternative interpretation of deep level Deligne-Lusztig characters in \cite{Nie_24}, we present a parallel but…

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…

We continue the study of character sheaves on a not necessarily connected reductive group. We prove orthogonality formulas for certain characteristic functions.

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 describe an analogue of the notion of a perverse sheaf in the setting of the derived category of coherent sheaves on an algebraic stack. Under strong additional assumptions the construction of coherent "intersection cohomology" complexes…

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…

We define and describe the properties of a class of perverse sheaves which is very useful when the base ring is not a field.

We show that certain Iwahori-Hecke algebras with unequal parameters can be realized in the framework of parabolic character sheaves.

We relate a generic character sheaf on a disconnected reductive group with a character of a representation of the rational points of the group over a finite field extending a result known in the connected case.

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…

Constructible sheaves of abelian groups on a stratified space can be equivalently described in terms of representations of the exit-path category. In this work, we provide a similar presentation of the abelian category of perverse sheaves…
