We determine versal non-commutative deformations of some simple collections in the categories of perverse coherent sheaves arising from tilting generators for projective morphisms.
There is a connection between the category of perverse sheaves on a disc and different notions related to spherical functors. We introduce a category whose objects are analogous to 4-periodic semiorthogonal decompositions and prove that it is equivalent to the category of perverse sheaves on a disc stratified by the origin and its complement.
For a reductive group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$ we construct the abelian category of perverse $\mathbb{F}_p$-sheaves on the affine Grassmannian that are equivariant with respect to the action of the positive loop group. We show this is a symmetric monoidal category, and then we apply a Tannakian formalism to show this category is equivalent to the category of representations of a certain affine monoid scheme. We also show that our work provides a geometrization of the inverse of the mod $p$ Satake isomorphism. Along the way we prove that affine Schubert varie…
We compute the perverse delta-homotopy heart of the motivic stable homotopy category over a base scheme with a dimension function delta, rationally or after inverting the exponential characteristic in the equicharacteristic case. In order to do that, we define the notion of homological Milnor-Witt cycle modules and construct a homotopy-invariant Rost-Schmid cycle complex. Moreover, we define the category of cohomological Milnor-Witt cycle modules and show a duality result in the smooth case.
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 on a stratified surface in terms of representations of the so-called paracyclic category of the surface. The category models a hybrid exit-entrance behaviour with respect to chosen sectors of direction, placing it "in between" exit and entrance path categories. In particular, this perspective yields an intrinsic definition of perverse sheaves as an abelian ca…
We introduce irregular constructible sheaves, which are $\mathbb{C}$-constructible with coefficients in a finite version of Novikov ring $Λ$ and special gradings. We show that the bounded derived category of cohomologically irregular constructible complexes is equivalent to the bounded derived category of holonomic $\mathcal{D}$-modules by a modification of D'Agnolo--Kashiwara's irregular Riemann--Hilbert correspondence. The bounded derived category of cohomologically irregular constructible complexes is equipped with the irregular perverse t-structure, which is a straightforward generalizatio…
Algebraic structures involving both multiplications and comultiplications (such as, e.g., bialgebras or Hopf algebras) can be encoded using PROPs (categories with PROducts and Permutations) of Adams and MacLane. To encode such structures on objects of a braided monoidal category, we need PROBs (braided analogs of PROPs). Colored PROBs correspond to multi-sorted structures. In particular, we have a colored PROB B governing non-negatively graded bialgebras in braided categories. As a category, B splits into blocks B_n according to the grading. We relate B_n with the category P_n of perverse shea…
Informal lecture notes with examples on sheaf theory and the derived category of sheaves; sheaves and Morse theory; perverse sheaves, and some applications to representation theory. Added Oct 2021: cellular perverse sheaves. Proofs are outlined with references for further details.
For an $F$-finite scheme $X$ separated over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ which admits an embedding into a smooth $k$-scheme, we establish an equivalence between the bounded derived categories of Cartier crystals on $X$ and constructible $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$-sheaves on the étale site $X_{\text{ét}}$. The key intermediate step is to extend the category of locally finitely generated unit $\mathcal{O}_{F,X}$-modules for smooth schemes introduced by Emerton and Kisin to embeddable schemes. On the one hand, this category is equivalent to Cartier crystals. On the other hand, by usi…
The goal of this work is to construct a perverse t-structure on the infinity-category of l-adic LG-equivariant sheaves on the loop Lie algebra Lg and to show that the affine Grothendieck-Springer sheaf S is perverse. Moreover, S is an intermediate extension of its restriction to the locus of ``compact" elements with regular semi-simple reduction. Note that classical methods do not apply in our situation because LG and Lg are infinite-dimensional ind-schemes.
In this paper we give a geometric version of the Satake isomorphism. Given a connected complex reductive algebraic group, we show that the category of representations of its Langlands dual is naturally equivalent to a certain category of perverse sheaves on the complex affine Grassmannian. We can work with perverse sheaves with coefficients in an arbitrary commutative ring and then we recover the representation theory of the split form of the dual group over the commutative ring.
