{\Large\bfseries Perverse sheaves on certain infinite-dimensional spaces, and affine Springer theory\par}
\bigskip

\end{center}
\vfill

\textsc{Abstract:}
A classical Springer theory is an important ingredient in the classification 
of representations of finite groups of Lie type, completed by Lusztig.

The first result of this theory is the assertion that the so-called Grothendieck-Springer sheaf 
is perverse and is equipped with an action of the Weyl group. Our main result asserts that an 
analogous result also holds in the affine (infinite-dimensional) case.

In the first of my talk I will recall what are perverse sheaves, and why the Grothendieck-Springer 
sheaf is perverse. In the rest of the talk I will outline how to extend all this to the affine  setting.

We believe that this should have applications to the representations theory of p-adic groups.

This is a joint work with Alexis Bouthier and David Kazhdan
