We explain an equivalence of categories between a module category of quiver Hecke algebras associated with the Kronecker quiver and a category of equivariant perverse coherent sheaves on the nilpotent cone of type A. This provides a link between two...

The geometric Satake equivalence establishes a link between two categories: the category of spherical perverse sheaves on the affine Grassmannian and the category of representations of the Langlands dual group. It has found many important...

In the theory of turbulence, a famous conjecture of Onsager asserts that the threshold Hölder regularity for the total kinetic energy conservation of (spatially periodic) Euler flows is 1/3. In particular, there are Hölder continuous Euler flows...

There are two categorical realizations of the affine Hecke algebra: constructible sheaves on the affine flag variety and coherent sheaves on the Langlands dual Steinberg variety. A fundamental problem in geometric representation theory is to relate...

The theta correspondence of Roger Howe gives a way to connect representations of different classical groups. We aim to geometrize the theta correspondence for groups over finite fields in the spirit of Lusztig's character sheaves. Given a reductive...

Indistinguishability obfuscation, introduced by [Barak et. al. Crypto’2001], aims to compile programs into unintelligible ones while preserving functionality. It is a fascinating and powerful object that has been shown to enable a host of new...

We consider the universality of existence and saturation of asymptotic bounds in various quantities in 2D CFT. In particular, we focus on previously derived upper and lower bounds on the number of operators in a window of scaling dimensions [Δ−δ,Δ+δ...

Mathematics is an extremely deep and extensive subject, but amazingly we are surrounded by easily stated mathematical problems about which almost nothing is known. These kinds of problems tantalize mathematicians with their combination of simplicity...

Let X be a compact symplectic manifold, and D a normal crossings symplectic divisor in X. We give a criterion under which the quantum cohomology of X is the cohomology of a natural deformation of the symplectic cochain complex of X \ D. The...

Let \o be an order in a totally real field, say F. Let K be an odd-degree totally real field. Let S be a finite set of places of K. We study S-integral K-points on integral models H_\o of Hilbert modular varieties because not only do said varieties...
