In this paper we construct and study an action of the affine braid group associated to a semi-simple algebraic group on derived categories of coherent sheaves on various varieties related to the Springer resolution of the nilpotent cone. In particular, we describe explicitly the action of the Artin braid group. This action is a "categorical version" of Kazhdan--Lusztig--Ginzburg's construction of the affine Hecke algebra, and is used in particular by the first author and Ivan Mirkovic in the…

Categorical action of the extended braid group of affine type A
Using a quiver algebra of a cyclic quiver, we construct a faithful categorical action of the extended braid group of affine type A on its bounded homotopy category of finitely generated projective…
Equivariant coherent sheaves, Soergel bimodules, and categorification of affine Hecke algebras
We give a description of certain categories of equivariant coherent sheaves on Grothendieck's resolution in terms of the categorical affine Hecke algebra of Soergel. As an application, we deduce a…
Equivariant Coherent Sheaves , Soergel Bimnodules , and Categorification of Affine Hecke Algebras by MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE
In this thesis, we examine three different versions of "categorification" of the affine Hecke algebra and its periodic module: the first is by equivariant coherent sheaves on the Grothendieck…
On two geometric realizations of an affine Hecke algebra
The article is a contribution to the local theory of geometric Langlands duality. The main result is a categorification of the isomorphism between the (extended) affine Hecke algebra associated to a…

In this paper we study Bezrukavnikov's exotic t-structure on the derived category of equivariant coherent sheaves on the Springer resolution of a connected reductive algebraic group defined over a…
DIFFERENTIAL OPERATORS ON $G/U$ AND THE AFFINE GRASSMANNIAN
We describe the equivariant cohomology of cofibers of spherical perverse sheaves on the affine Grassmannian of a reductive algebraic group in terms of the geometry of the Langlands dual group. In…
Flops and about: a guide
Stratified flops show up in the birational geometry of symplectic varieties such as resolutions of nilpotent orbits and moduli spaces of sheaves. Constructing derived equivalences between varieties…
Wall-crossings and a categorification of K-theory stable bases of the Springer resolution
Abstract We compare the $K$-theory stable bases of the Springer resolution associated to different affine Weyl alcoves. We prove that (up to relabelling) the change of alcoves operators are given by…
Mixed Braid Group Actions From Deformations of Surface Singularities
We consider a set of toric Calabi–Yau varieties which arise as deformations of the small resolutions of type A surface singularities. By careful analysis of the heuristics of B-brane transport in the…
