Perverse sheaves and t-structures on the thin and thick affine flag varieties

Roman Bezrukavnikov, Calder Morton-Ferguson

We study the categories and of Iwahori-equivariant perverse sheaves on the thin and thick affine flag varieties ass…

Modular reduction of complex representations of finite reductive groups

Roman Bezrukavnikov, Michael Finkelberg, David Kazhdan +1

The main result describes the Brauer-Nesbitt reduction of unipotent representations of a finite group of Lie type, expressing it as an explicit linear combination of the restrictio…

Weight modules and gluing of sheaves on the flag variety

Pablo Boixeda Alvarez, Calder Morton-Ferguson

We study a natural enlargement of the BGG Category O for a semisimple Lie algebra: the category of weight modules with trivial central character and finite-dimensional weight space…

Markov chains on Weyl groups from the geometry of the flag variety

Persi Diaconis, Calder Morton-Ferguson

This paper studies a basic Markov chain, the Burnside process, on the space of flags with and its upper triangular matrices. This gives rise to a…

Polishchuk's conjecture and Kazhdan-Laumon representations

Calder Morton-Ferguson

In their 1988 paper "Gluing of perverse sheaves and discrete series representations," D. Kazhdan and G. Laumon constructed an abelian category associated to a reducti…

Kazhdan-Laumon Category O, Braverman-Kazhdan Schwartz space, and the semi-infinite flag variety

Calder Morton-Ferguson

We define and study an analogue of Category O in the context of Kazhdan and Laumon's gluing construction for perverse sheaves on the basic affine space. We explicitly describe the…
