Tensor product and semisimplicity of perverse sheaves

Let $X/\mathbb{C}$ be a smooth algebraic variety. Let $D_c^b(X,\bar{\mathbb{Q}}_{\ell})$ be the category defined in 2.2.18, p.74 of "Faisceaux pervers" (by Beilinson, Bernstein and Deligne). ...

Beilinson's theorem for fixed stratifications

Beilinson's theorem states that for a variety $X$ and a field $k$ the realization functor $$\text{real}: D^b\text{Perv}(X,k)\to D_c^b(X,k)$$ is an equivalence of categories. If we only consider ...

$\text{Ext}$-groups of perverse sheaves with a fixed stratification

Let $X$ be a complex variety with a good stratification $S$ and consider the category $Perv_S(X)$ of sheaves perverse with respect to the given stratification (with middle perversity) lying in $D^b_S(...

Understanding an involution of the category of perverse sheaves on $\mathbb{C}$

It is well-known (for example: chapter 2 in [GGM] A. Galligo, M. Granger, P. Maisonobe. D-modules et faisceaux pervers dont le support singulier est un croisement normal. Ann. Inst. Fourier Grenoble, ...

Perverse sheaves on the complex affine line

Show that a perverse sheaf on $\mathbb{A}^1(\mathbb{C})$ (the complex plane with the analytic topology) is a bounded complex $A$ of sheaves of $\mathbb{Q}$-vector spaces with constructible cohomology ...

What's the definition of a microlocal sheaf?

I'm slowly becoming familiar with what microsupport of a sheaf is, but none of the references I've seen give a definition of what a microlocal sheaf should be in general. In this paper of ...

Perverse sheaves and maximal genus Gopakumar-Vafa invariants

Let $f: X \to Y$ be a proper morphism between complex varieties (the varieties as well as the map may be non-smooth) and let $\phi \in \text{Perv}(X)$ be a perverse sheaf on $X$. Given this data, it ...

Stalks of perverse cohomology sheaves?

For a complex of sheaves $\cal{F}^{\bullet}$ on a variety $X$, a useful fact is that the stalks of the cohomology sheaves of $\mathcal{F}^{\bullet}$ agree with the cohomology groups of the complex of ...

So what exactly are perverse sheaves anyway?

Is there a way to define perverse sheaves categorically/geometrically? Definitions like the following from lectures by Sophie Morel: The category of perverse sheaves on $X$ is $\mathrm{Perv}(X,F):=...

Does intermediate extension functor commutes with forgetful functor in equivariant derived category?

The forgetful functor from $D^b_G(X)$ to $D^b(X)$ carries $Perv_G(X)$ to $Perv(X)$ by definition $5.1$ in the book of Bernstein and Lunts. My question is do the following functors, intermediate ...

Espace étalé for derived category

It is known that for a sheaf $\mathcal{F}$ on $X$, we can associate $X_\mathcal{F}$, the étalé space of $\mathcal{F}$ over $X$ such that section of $X_\mathcal{F}$ coincides with section of $\mathcal{...

Convolution of $\ell$-adic sheaves is commutative if the group is commutative

[This is a duplicate of this question on Stackexchange] I am trying to figure out how to prove a very basic statement about convolution of $\ell$-adic/perverse sheaves in Katz's "Rigid local systems" ...

on the Springer sheaf

Let $\pi:\tilde{\mathfrak{g}}\rightarrow \mathfrak{g}$, be the Grothendieck-Springer resolution, where $\mathfrak{g}$ is a semisimple Lie algebra over $\mathbb{C}$. We know that $\pi$ is small thus $\...
