The stack of microlocal perverse sheaves

Ingo Waschkies (2004)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

In this paper we construct the abelian stack of microlocal perverse sheaves on the projective cotangent bundle of a complex manifold. Following ideas of Andronikof we first consider microlocal perverse sheaves at a point using classical tools from microlocal sheaf theory. Then we will use Kashiwara-Schapira’s theory of analytic ind-sheaves to globalize our construction. This presentation allows us to formulate explicitly a global microlocal Riemann-Hilbert correspondence.

Sheaf theory and regularity. Application to local and microlocal analysis

Jean-André Marti (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

A review of some methods in sheaf theory is presented to make precise a general concept of regularity in algebras or spaces of generalized functions. This leads to the local analysis of the sections of sheaves or presheaves under consideration and then to microlocal analysis and microlocal asymptotic analysis.

On caustics associated with Rossby waves

Arthur D. Gorman (1996)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

Rossby wave equations characterize a class of wave phenomena occurring in geophysical fluid dynamics. One technique useful in the analysis of these waves is the geometrical optics, or multi-dimensional WKB technique. Near caustics, e.g., in critical regions, this technique does not apply. A related technique that does apply near caustics is the Lagrange Manifold Formalism. Here we apply the Lagrange Manifold Formalism to study Rossby waves near caustics.

On caustics associated with the linearized vorticity equation

Petya N. Ivanova, Arthur D. Gorman (1998)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

The linearized vorticity equation serves to model a number of wave phenomena in geophysical fluid dynamics. One technique that has been applied to this equation is the geometrical optics, or multi-dimensional WKB technique. Near caustics, this technique does not apply. A related technique that does apply near caustics is the Lagrange Manifold Formalism. Here we apply the Lagrange Manifold Formalism to determine an asymptotic solution of the linearized vorticity equation and to study...
