Koszul duality, as conceived by Beilinson-Ginzburg-Soergel, describes a remarkable symmetry in the representation theory of Langlands dual reductive groups. Geometrically, Koszul duality can be stated as an equivalence of categories of mixed (motivic) sheaves on flag varieties. In this talk, I will argue that there should be an an 'ungraded' version of Koszul duality between monodromic constructible sheaves and equivariant K-motives on flag varieties. For this, I will explain what K-motives are and present preliminary results.

Admissible representations of real reductive Lie groups are a key player in the world of unitary representation theory. The characters of irreducible admissible representations were described by Lustig—Vogan in the 80’s in terms of a geometrically-defined module over the associated Hecke algebra. In this talk, I’ll describe a categorification of this module using Soergel bimodules, with a focus on examples. This is work in progress.

Suzuki's functor relates the representation theory of the affine Lie algebra to the representation theory of the rational Cherednik algebra in type A. In this talk, we discuss an extension of this functor to the critical level, t=0 case. This case is special because the respective categories of representations have large centres. Our main result describes the relationship between these centres, and provides a partial geometric interpretation in terms of Calogero-Moser spaces and opers.

In this note we give an alternative presentation of the rational Cherednik algebra H_c corresponding to the permutation representation of S_n. As an application, we give an explicit combinatorial basis for all standard and simple modules if the denominator of c is at least n, and describe the action of H_c in this basis. We also give a basis for the irreducible quotient of the polynomial representation and compare it to the basis of fixed points in the homology of the parabolic Hilbert scheme of points on the plane curve singularity {x^n=y^m}. This is a joint work with José Simental and Monica Vazirani.

The category of Harish-Chandra bimodules is ubiquitous in representation theory. In this talk I will explain their relationship to the theory of dynamical R-matrices (going back to the works of Donin and Mudrov) and quantum moment maps. I will also relate the monoidal properties of the parabolic restriction functor for Harish-Chandra bimodules to the so-called standard dynamical R-matrix. This is a report on work in progress, joint with Artem Kalmykov.

The preprojective algebra of a quiver naturally appears when computing the cotangent to the quiver moduli, via the moment map. When considering the derived setting, it is replaced by its differential graded (dg) variant, introduced by Ginzburg. This construction can be generalized using potentials, so that one retrieves critical loci when considering moduli of perfect modules. Our idea is to consider some relative, or constrained critical loci, deformations of the above, and study Calabi--Yau structures on the underlying relative versions of Ginzburg's dg-algebras. It yields for instance some new lagrangian subvarieties of the Hilbert schemes of points on the plane. This reports a joint work with Damien Calaque and Sarah Scherotzke arxiv.org/abs/2006.01069

I will explain a generalized Albanese property for smooth curves, which implies Deligne's geometric class field theory with arbitrary ramification. The proof essentially reduces to some well-known Cartier duality statements. This is joint work with Andreas Hayash.

The Springer resolution and resulting Springer sheaf are key players in geometric representation theory. While one can construct the Springer sheaf geometrically, Hotta and Kashiwara gave it a purely algebraic reincarnation in the language of equivariant $D(\mathfrak{g})$-modules. For $G = GL_N$, the endomorphism algebra of the Springer sheaf, or equivalently of the associated $D$-module, is isomorphic to $\mathbb{C}[\mathcal{S}_n]$ the group algebra of the symmetric group. In this talk, I'll discuss a quantum analogue of this. In joint work with Sam Gunningham and David Jordan, we define quantum Hotta-Kashiwara $D$-modules $\mathrm{HK}_\chi$, and compute their endomorphism algebras. In particular $\mathrm{End}_{\mathcal{D}_q(G)}(\mathrm{HK}_0) \simeq \mathbb{C}[\mathcal{S}_n]$. This is part of a larger program to understand the category of strongly equivariant quantum $D$-modules. Our main tool to study this category is Jordan's elliptic Schur-Weyl duality functor to representations of the double affine Hecke algebra (DAHA). When we input $\mathrm{HK}_0$ into Jordan's functor, the endomorphism algebra over the DAHA of the output is $\mathbb{C}[\mathcal{S}_n]$ from which we deduce the result above. From studying the output of all the $\mathrm{HK}_\chi$, we are able to compute that for input a distinguished projective generator of the category the output is the DAHA module generated by the sign idempotent. This is joint work with Sam Gunningham and David Jordan.

I will give an overview of a joint project with Simon Riche and Laura Rider and another one with Dima Arinkin aimed at a modular version of the equivalence between two geometric realization of the affine Hecke algebra and derived Satake equivalence respectively. As a byproduct we obtain a proof of the Finkelberg-Mirkovic conjecture and a possible approach to understanding cohomology of higher Frobenius kernels with coefficients in a G-module.

The Beilinson-Drinfeld Grassmannian of a simple complex algebraic group admits a natural stratification into "global spherical Schubert varieties". In the case when the underlying curve is the affine line, we determine algebraically the global sections of the determinant line bundle over these global Schubert varieties as modules over the corresponding Lie algebra of currents. The resulting modules are the global Weyl modules (in the simply laced case) and generalizations thereof. This is a joint work with Ilya Dumanski and Evgeny Feigin.

Elliptic stable envelopes, introduced by Aganagic and Okounkov, are a key ingredient in the study of quantum integrable systems attached to a symplectic resolution. I will describe a relation between elliptic stable envelopes on a hypertoric variety and a certain 'loop space' of that variety. Joint with Artan Sheshmani and Shing-Tung Yau.

Given a quiver with potential, Kontsevich-Soibelman constructed a Hall algebra on the cohomology of the stack of representations of (Q,W). In particular cases, one recovers positive parts of Yangians as defined by Maulik-Okounkov. For general (Q,W), the Hall algebra has nice structure properties, for example Davison-Meinhardt proved a PBW theorem for it using the decomposition theorem. One can define a K-theoretic version of this algebra using certain categories of singularities that depend on the stack of representations of (Q,W). In particular cases, these Hall algebras are positive parts of quantum affine algebras. We show that some of the structure properties in cohomology, such as the PBW theorem, can be lifted to K-theory, replacing the use of the decomposition theorem with semi-orthogonal decompositions.
