The perverse filtration in cohomology and in cohomology with compact supports is interpreted in terms of kernels of restrictions maps to suitable subvarieties by using the Lefschetz hyperplane theorem and spectral objects. Various…
The purpose of these lectures is to introduce the notion of a Stokes-perverse sheaf as a receptacle for the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence for holonomic D-modules. They develop the original idea of P. Deligne in dimension one, and make it…
We introduce the semi-infinite category of sheaves on the affine Grassmannian, and construct a particular object in it, which we call the the semi-infinite intersection cohomology sheaf. We relate it to several other entities naturally…
The purpose of this article is to set foundations for decomposition numbers of perverse sheaves, to give some methods to calculate them in simple cases, and to compute them concretely in two situations: for a simple (Kleinian) surface…
In the strict semi stable reduction situation, we describe the various filtrations of the perverse sheaf of nearby cycles in terms of irreducible perverse sheaves together with the action of the monodromy operator. We then study the…
We describe the perverse filtration in cohomology using the Lefschetz Hyperplane Theorem.
These notes aim to give an introduction to a few aspects of noncommutative geometry.
We suggest a possibility for a categorical generalization of the concept of a perverse sheaf, in which vector spaces are replaced by triangulated categories. We call such hypothetical objects perverse Schobers and consider several examples,…
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…
Given a perversity function in the sense of intersection homology theory, the method of intersection spaces assigns to certain oriented stratified spaces cell complexes whose ordinary reduced homology with real coefficients satisfies…
The method of intersection spaces associates rational Poincar\'e complexes to singular stratified spaces. For a conifold transition, the resulting cohomology theory yields the correct count of all present massless 3-branes in type IIB…
Gerstenhaber and Schack ([GS]) developed a deformation theory of presheaves of algebras on small categories. We translate their cohomological description to sheaf cohomology. More precisely, we describe the deformation space of (admissible)…
A class of perverse sheaves on framed representation varieties of the Jordan quiver is defined. Its relationship with product of symmetric groups, tensor product of Schur algebras, and tensor product of Fock spaces are addressed.
We present a brief introduction to quantum sheaf cohomology, a generalization of quantum cohomology based on the physics of the (0,2) nonlinear sigma model.
These notes are an introduction to the theory of quantum symmetries of finite and infinite sets, graphs, and locally compact spaces.
These course note first provide an introduction to secondary characteristic classes and differential cohomology. They continue with a presentation of a stable homotopy theoretic approach to the theory of differential extensions of…
In two articles by Barthel, Brasselet, Fieseler and Kaup, and, Bressler and Lunts, a combinatorial theory of intersection cohomology and perverse sheaves has been developed on fans. In the first one, one tried to present everything on an…
This article aims to introduce to the uninitiated, in just four lectures of 26 pages, the wonderful techniques of sheaf cohomology, hypercohomology, and spectral sequences.
Exotic sheaves are certain complexes of coherent sheaves on the cotangent bundle of the flag variety of a reductive group. They are closely related to perverse-coherent sheaves on the nilpotent cone. This expository article includes the…
In a series of papers the authors introduced the so-called blown-up intersection cochains. These cochains are suitable to study products and cohomology operations of intersection cohomology of stratified spaces. The aim of this paper is to…
