Geometric and Modular Representation Theory Seminar

Parabolic version of the two realizations theorem and applications to modular representation theory
3:00pm|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

The goal of this talk is two-fold. We state a parabolic version of the two realizations theorem and sketch a proof. This version relates Iwahori-constructible sheaves on parabolic affine flag variety to coherent sheaves on a parabolic version of the...

Microlocal sheaves III: Regular singularities and Riemann-Hilbert
Michael McBreen
6:00pm|Remote Access

In the last talk of this series, we discuss the microlocal criterion for regular singularities of a D-module, and the existence of special filtrations on regular holonomic microdifferential modules. This allows us to define a D-module-theoretic...

Geometric and Modular Representation Theory Seminar

Affine Hecke category and noncommutative Springer resolution
3:00pm|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

I will start with a few comments on the proof of the equivalence presented in the previous talks. Then I will focus on the description of the abelian category of perverse sheaves on the affine flag variety on the coherent side, where the answer is...

Microlocal sheaves II: morphisms, microperverse sheaves and regular singularities
Michael McBreen
6:00pm|Remote Access

We introduce basic tools of the trade: the Fourier-Sato transform, specialisation, Sato's microlocalisation and the microhom functor, culminating with a concrete description of the morphisms in our category of microlocal sheaves. We use quantized...
