Grassmannians, IC-modules and knots
Maxim Vybornov

Abstract: due to the efforts of J. Bernstein, I. Frenkel, M. Khovanov, T. Braden, and C. Stroppel, perverse sheaves on Grassmannians have been used to build knot invariants (Khovanov' homology). We will look at this subject from the perspective of IC-modules.
