Proof of the geometric Langlands conjecture IV: ambidexterity

This paper performs the following steps toward the proof of GLC in the de Rham setting: (i) We deduce GLC for G=GL_n; (ii) We prove that the Langlands functor L_G constructed in [GLC1], when restricted to the cuspidal category, is ambidextrous; (iii) We reduce GLC to the study of a certain classical vector bundle with connection on the stack of irreducible local systems; (iv) We prove that GLC is equivalent to the contractibility of the space of generic oper structures on irreducible local systems; (v) Using [BKS], we deduce GLC for classical groups.

Proof of the geometric Langlands conjecture II: Kac-Moody localization and the FLE

This paper is the second in a series of five that together prove the geometric Langlands conjecture. Our goals are two-fold: (1) Formulate and prove the Fundamental Local Equivalence (FLE) at the critical level; (2) Study the interaction between Kac-Moody localization and the global geometric Langlands functor of ref. [GLC1]. This paper contains an extensive Appendix, whose primary goals are: (a) Development the theory of ind-coherent sheaves in infinite type; (b)Development of the formalism of factorization categories.

Intersection cohomology of Drinfeld's compactifications

Let $X$ be a smooth complete curve, $G$ be a reductive group and $P\subset G$ a parabolic. Following Drinfeld, one defines a compactification $\widetilde{\on{Bun}}_P$ of the moduli stack of $P$-bundles on $X$. The present paper is concerned with the explicit description of the Intersection Cohomology sheaf of $\widetilde{\on{Bun}}_P$. The description is given in terms of the combinatorics of the Langlands dual Lie algebra $\check{\mathfrak g}$.

Parameters and duality for the metaplectic geometric Langlands theory

We introduce the space of parameters for the metaplectic Langlands theory as *factorization gerbes* on the affine Grassmannian, and develop metaplectic Langlands duality in the incarnation of the metaplectic geometric Satake functor. We formulate a conjecture in the context of the global metaplectic Langlands theory, which is a metaplectic version of the "vanishing theorem" of ref. Ga5 (Theorem 4.5.2 in loc. cit.)

Automorphic functions as the trace of Frobenius

We prove that the trace of the Frobenius endofunctor of the category of automorphic sheaves with nilpotent singular support maps isomorphically to the space of unramified automorphic functions, settling a conjecture from [AGKRRV1]. More generally, we show that traces of Frobenius-Hecke functors produce shtuka cohomologies.

The stack of local systems with restricted variation and geometric Langlands theory with nilpotent singular support

We define a new geometric object--the stack of local systems with restricted variation. We formulate a version of the categorical geometric Langlands conjecture that makes sense for any constructible sheaf theory (such as l-adic sheaves). We formulate a conjecture that makes precise the connection between the category of automorphic sheaves and the space of automorphic functions.

A toy model for the Drinfeld-Lafforgue shtuka construction

The goal of this paper is to provide a categorical framework that leads to the definition of shtukas à la Drinfeld and of excursion operators à la V. Lafforgue. We take as the point of departure the Hecke action of Rep(G^L) on the category Shv(Bun_G) of sheaves on Bun_G, and also the endofunctor of the latter category, given by the action of the geometric Frobenius. The shtuka construction will be obtained by applying (various versions of) categorical trace.

Metaplectic Whittaker category and quantum groups : the "small" FLE

We prove that the category of Hecke eigensheaves in the metaplectic Whittaker category of the affine Grassmannian is equivalent to the category of modules over the small quantum group. This a step towards proving the FLE: the fundamental local equivalence in the quantum geometric Langlands theory.

The category of singularities as a crystal and global Springer fibers

We prove the "Gluing Conjecture" on the spectral side of the categorical geometric Langlands correspondence. The key tool is the structure of crystal on the category of singularities, which allows to reduce the conjecture to the question of homological triviality of certain homotopy types. These homotopy types are obtained by gluing from a global version of Springer fibers.

Geometric constant term functor(s)

We study the Eisenstein series and constant term functors in the framework of geometric theory of automorphic functions. Our main result says that for a parabolic P in G with Levi quotient M, the !-constant term functor CT_!:D-mod(Bun_G)-> D-mod(Bun_M) is canonically isomorphic to the *-constant term functor CT^-_*:D-mod(Bun_G)\to D-mod(Bun_M), taken with respect to the opposite parabolic P^-.

Uhlenbeck spaces via affine Lie algebras

Let $G$ be an almost simple simply connected group over $\BC$, and let $\Bun^a_G(\BP^2,\BP^1)$ be the moduli scheme of principal $G$-bundles on the projective plave $\BP^2$, of second Chern class $a$, trivialized along a line $\BP^1\subset \BP^2$. We define the Uhlenbeck compactification $\fU^a_G$ of $\Bun^a_G(\BP^2,\BP^1)$, which classifies, roughly, pairs $(\F_G,D)$, where $D$ is a 0-cycle on $\BA^2=\BP^2-\BP^1$ of degree $b$, and $\F_G$ is a point of $\Bun^{a-b}_G(\BP^2,\BP^1)$, for varying $b$. In addition, we calculate the stalks of the Intersection Cohomology sheaf of $\fU^a_G$. To do that we give a geometric realization of Kashiwara's crystals for affine Kac-Moody algebras.

Deformations of local systems and Eisenstein series

Let $X$ be a (smooth and complete) curve and $G$ a reductive group. In [BG] we introduced the object that we called "geometric Eisenstein series". This is a perverse sheaf $\bar{Eis}_E$ (or rather a complex of such) on the moduli stack $Bun_G(X)$ of principal $G$-bundles on $X$, which is attached to a local system $E$ on $X$ with respect to the torus $\check{T}$, Langlands dual to the Cartan subgroup $T\subset G$. In loc. cit. we showed that$\bar{Eis}_E$ corresponds to the $\check{G}$-local system induced from $E$, in the sense of the geometric Langlands correspondence. In the present paper we address the following question, suggested by V. Drinfeld: what is the perverse sheaf on $Bun_G(X)$ that corresponds to the universal deformation of $E$ as a local system with respect to the Borel subgroup $\check{B}\subset \check{G}$? We prove, following a conjecture of Drinfeld, that the resulting perverse sheaf if the classical, i.e., non-compactified Eisenstein series.

Spherical varieties and Langlands duality

Let G be a connected reductive complex algebraic group. This paper is devoted to the space Z of meromorphic quasimaps from a curve into an affine spherical G-variety X. The space Z may be thought of as an algebraic model for the loop space of X. In this paper, we associate to X a connected reductive complex algebraic subgroup $\check H$ of the dual group $\check G$. The construction of $\check H$ is via Tannakian formalism: we identify a certain tensor category Q(Z) of perverse sheaves on Z with the category of finite-dimensional representations of $\check H$. Combinatorial shadows of the group $\check H$ govern many aspects of the geometry of X such as its compactifications and invariant differential operators. When X is a symmetric variety, the group $\check H$ coincides with that associated to the corresponding real form of G via the (real) geometric Satake correspondence.

Hecke operators on quasimaps into horospherical varieties

Let $G$ be a connected reductive complex algebraic group. This paper is part of a project devoted to the space $Z$ of meromorphic quasimaps from a curve into an affine spherical $G$-variety $X$. The space $Z$ may be thought of as an algebraic model for the loop space of $X$. The theory we develop associates to $X$ a connected reductive complex algebraic subgroup $\check H$ of the dual group $\check G$. The construction of $\check H$ is via Tannakian formalism: we identify a certain tensor category $Q(Z)$ of perverse sheaves on $Z$ with the category of finite-dimensional representations of $\check H$. Combinatorial shadows of the group $\check H$ govern many aspects of the geometry of $X$ such as its compactifications and invariant differential operators. When $X$ is a symmetric variety, the group $\check H$ coincides with that associated to the corresponding real form of $G$ via the (real) geometric Satake correspondence. In this paper, we focus on horospherical varieties, a class of varieties closely related to flag varieties.

Geometric realizations of Wakimoto modules at the critical level

We study the Wakimoto modules over the affine Kac-Moody algebras at the critical level from the point of view of the equivalences of categories proposed in our previous works, relating categories of representations and certain categories of sheaves. In particular, we describe explicitly geometric realizations of the Wakimoto modules as Hecke eigen-D-modules on the affine Grassmannian and as quasi-coherent sheaves on the flag variety of the Langlands dual group.
