Zelevinsky’s classification theory of discrete series of p-adic general linear groups has been well known. Mœglin and Tadić gave the same kind of theory for p-adic classical groups, which is more complicated due to the occurrence of nontrivial structure of L-packets. Nonetheless, their work is independent of the endoscopic classification theory of Arthur (also Mok in the unitary case), which concerns the structure of L-packets in these cases. So our goal in this paper is to make more explicit the connection between these two very different types of theories. To do so, we reprove the results of Mœglin and Tadić in the case of quasisplit symplectic groups and orthogonal groups by using Arthur’s theory.

Let $A = \bigoplus _{i \geqslant 0} A_i$ be a graded locally finite $k$-algebra where $A_0$ is a finite-dimensional algebra whose finitistic dimension is 0. In this paper we develop a generalized Koszul theory preserving many classical results, and show an explicit correspondence between this generalized theory and the classical theory. Applications in representations of certain categories and extension algebras of standard modules of standardly stratified algebras are described.

Let $A$ be a finite dimensional k-algebra standardly stratified for a partial order $\leqslant$ and $\Delta$ be the direct sum of all standard modules. In this paper we study the extension algebra $E = Ext^{\ast}_A (Δ,Δ)$ of standard modules, characterize the stratification property of $E$ for $\geqslant$ and $\geqslant ^{op}$, and obtain a sufficient condition for $E$ to be a generalized Koszul algebra (in a sense which we define).

Let $G$ be a simple simply connected algebraic group and let $\mathfrak{g}_*$ be a $\mathbf{Z}/m$-grading on its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. G. Lusztig and Z. Yun, in a recent series of articles, studied the classification of simple $G_0$-equivariant perverse sheaves on the nilpotent cone of $\mathfrak{g}_i$ for $i\in \mathbf{Z}/m$, where $G_0$ is the exponentiation of the degree zero piece $\mathfrak{g}_0$. They proved a decomposition of the equivariant derived category of $\ell$-adic sheaves on the nilpotent cone of $\mathfrak{g}_i$ into blocks, each generated by a certain cuspidal local system via the procedure of {\itshape spiral inductions}. We prove a conjecture of them, stating that there is a bijection between 1) the set of simple perverse sheaves in a fixed block and 2) the set of simple modules of a block of a (trigonometric) degenerate double affine Hecke algebra (dDAHA). This is a dDAHA analogue of the Deligne--Langlands correspondence for affine Hecke algebras proven by Kazhdan--Lusztig. Our results generalise a previous work of E. Vasserot, where the perverse sheaves in the principal block were considered.

We prove that any “finite-type” component of a stability space of a triangulated category is contractible. The motivating example of such a component is the stability space of the Calabi–Yau–N category D(Gamma_N Q) associated to an ADE Dynkin quiver. In addition to showing that this is contractible we prove that the braid group Br(Q) acts freely upon it by spherical twists, in particular that the spherical twist group Br(Gamma_N Q) is isomorphic to Br(Q). This generalises the result of Brav–Thomas for the N=2 case. Other classes of triangulated categories with finite-type components in their stability spaces include locally finite triangulated categories with finite-rank Grothendieck group and discrete derived categories of finite global dimension.
