Intercity Geometry Seminar 2020    
Perverse filtrations, Hilbert schemes,    
and the P=W conjecture for parabolic Higgs bundles    
after Junliang Shen and Zili Zhang    

Some references


The $P=W$ was originally conjectured by de Cataldo, Hausel and Migliorini ( arXiv link). This original paper provide a proof in the case of rank 2 bundles. The recent papers of Junliang Shen and co-authors prove the conjecture in different set-ups using the combinatorics of tautological classes of Hilbert schemes of points: moduli spaces of parabolic bundles (subject of the seminar, arXiv link), genus 2 curves ( arXiv link), and an analogue of the conjecture for compact hyper-kaehler manifolds ( arXiv link).
