Tao-Travkin equivalence revisited

arXiv:2610.05465

Abstract

We give a simpler proof of the theorem of J.~Tao and R.~Travkin saying that (the neutral block of) the affine Hecke category is the monoidal colimit of finite Hecke categories. The argument is axiomatized to apply to various sheaf-theoretic and group-theoretic contexts. We also prove an extension of the Tao-Travkin equivalence for the whole affine Hecke category as a Morita equivalence.
