Dualizable abelian fibrations

Abstract

In his proof of the fundamental lemma of the Langlands program, Ng\^o initiated the study of the decomposition theorem for abelian fibrations. When an abelian fibration admits a duality structure, the decomposition theorem and the perverse filtration on cohomology exhibit rich structures. The purpose of these notes is to describe a framework for dualizable abelian fibrations and to discuss some recent progress and applications.
