We begin the study of character sheaves on a not necessarily connected reductive group, extending the known theory for connected groups.
The theory of character sheaves on a reductive group is extended to a class of varieties which includes the strata of the De Concini-Procesi completion of an adjoint group.
We study a class of perverse sheaves on the variety of pairs (P,gU_P) where P runs through a conjugacy class of parabolics in a connected reductive group G and gU_P runs through G/U_P. This is a generalization of the theory of character…
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 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.
These are slides for a talk given by the authors at the conference "Current developments and directions in the Langlands program" held in honor of Robert Langlands at the Northwestern University in May of 2008. The slides can be used as a…
We define character sheaves on an ind-variety of the form G((t))/U_P where G((t)) is a loop group and U_P is the prounipotent radical of a parahoric subgroup P of G((t)).
This paper is an introduction, in a simplified setting, to Lusztig's theory of character sheaves. It develops a notion of character sheaves on reductive Lie algebras which is more general then such notion of Lusztig, and closer to Lusztig's…
Let D be a connected component of a reductive group over an algebraically closed field. We define a surjective map from the unipotent character sheaves on D to the set of strata of D, extending an earlier result which applied to connected…
Let H be a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field. We define a surjective map from the set CS(H) of unipotent character sheaves on H (up to isomorphism) to the set of strata of H. To do this we use the generalized…
We continue the study of character sheaves on a not necessarily connected reductive group. We prove orthogonality formulas for certain characteristic functions.
Even with the introduction of supercharacter theories, the representation theory of many unipotent groups remains mysterious. This paper constructs a family of supercharacter theories for normal pattern groups in a way that exhibit many of…
In the first chapters, this paper contains a survey on the theory of ordinary characters of finite reductive groups with non-connected centre. The last chapters are devoted to the proof of Lusztig's conjecture on characteristic functions of…
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…
In this paper we continue the study of character sheaves on a reductive group G. To each subset of the set of simple reflections in the Weyl group we associate an algebra of the same kind as an Iwahori-Hecke algebra with unequal parameters…
We study a class of perverse sheaves on some spherical varieties which include the strata of the De Concini-Procesi completion of a symmetric variety. This is a generalization of the theory of (parabolic) character sheaves.
We give a combinatorial description of the dg category of character sheaves on a complex reductive group $G$, extending results of [Li] for $G$ simply-connected. We also explicitly identify the parabolic induction/restriction functors.
This is a preliminary version of the first chapter of a book project on the character theory of finite groups of Lie type. It provides the foundations from the general theory of reductive algebraic groups over a finite field.
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 give an explicit description of character sheaves for the symmetric pairs associated to inner involutions of the special linear groups. We make use of the general strategy given in [VX1] and central character consideration. We also…
