GLNT: Generic character sheaves for parahoric subgroups
Charlotte Chan (UM)
Abstract: Lusztig's theory of character sheaves for connected reductive groups is one of the most important developments in representation theory in the last few decades. In this talk, I will describe a construction which extends this "depth zero" picture to give positive-depth character sheaves associated to generic data. In the simplest nontrivial case, this resolves a conjecture of Lusztig and produces perverse sheaves associated to sufficiently generic multiplicative local systems whose trace-of-Frobenius function coincides with parahoric DeligneLusztig induction. This is joint work with R. Bezrukavnikov.
