In this paper we introduce a certain class of families of Hessenberg varieties arising from Springer theory for symmetric spaces. We study the geometry of those Hessenberg varieties and investigate their monodromy representations in detail…

Drinfeld's relative compactification plays a basic role in the theory of automorphic sheaves, and its singularities encode representation-theoretic information in the form of intersection cohomology. We introduce a resolution of…

We explore connections between three structures associated with the cohomology of the moduli of 1-dimensional stable sheaves on $\mathbb{P}^2$: perverse filtrations, tautological classes, and refined BPS invariants for local $\mathbb{P}^2$.…

For a complex reductive Lie group G with Lie algebra g, Cartan subalgebra h and Weyl group W, we describe the category of perverse sheaves on h/W smooth w.r.t the natural stratification. The answer is given in terms of mixed Bruhat sheaves,…

We consider the following conjecture: if X is a smooth projective variety over a field of characteristic zero, then there is a dense set of reductions X_s of X to positive characteristic such that the action of the Frobenius morphism on the…

We prove that for extended Dynkin quivers, simple perverse sheaves in Lusztig category are characterized by the nilpotency of their singular support. This proves a conjecture of Lusztig in the case of affine quivers. For cyclic quivers, we…

We consider a hyperplane arrangement in $\mathbb{C}^n$ defined over $\mathbb{R}$, and the associated natural stratification of $\mathbb{C}^n$. The category of perverse sheaves smooth with respect to this stratification was described by…

We prove an identity relating the product of two opposite Schubert varieties in the (equivariant) quantum K-theory ring of a cominuscule flag variety to the minimal degree of a rational curve connecting the Schubert varieties. We deduce…

This paper gives an explicit computation of the category of constructible sheaves on a toric variety (with respect to the stratification by torus orbits). Over the complex numbers, this simplifies a description due to Braden and Lunts. The…

We study a category of semiinfinite sheaves on the affine flag variety of a connected reductive algebraic group, with coefficients in a field of arbitrary characteristic, generalizing some results of Gaitsgory and showing that this category…

We define the characteristic cycle of a locally constant \'etale sheaf on a smooth variety in positive characteristic ramified along boundary as a cycle in the cotangent bundle of the variety, at least on a neighborhood of the generic point…

We provide a description of Iwahori-Whittaker equivariant perverse sheaves on affine flag varieties associated to tamely ramified reductive groups, in terms of Langlands dual data. This extends the work of Arkhipov-Bezrukavnikov from the…

We prove a characteristic p analogue of a result of Massey which bounds the dimensions of the stalks of a perverse sheaf in terms of certain intersection multiplicities of the characteristic cycle of that sheaf. This uses the construction…

A subvariety of a complex projective space has a well-known dual variety, which is the set of its tangent hyperplanes. The purpose of this paper is to generalise this notion for a subvariety of a quite general partial flag variety. A…
