We show this is a symmetric monoidal category, and then we apply a Tannakian formalism to show this category is equivalent to the category of representations of a certain affine monoid scheme. We also show that our work provides a geometrization of the inverse of the mod $p$ Satake isomorphism. Along the way we prove that affine Schubert varieties are globally $F$-regular and we apply Frobenius splitting techniques to the theory of perverse $\\mathbb{F}_p$ sheaves.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-10-08T13:09:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14M15", "14F10", "14F20" ], "keywords": [ "affine grassmannian", "symmetric monoidal category", "affine monoid scheme", "affine schubert varieties", "abelian category" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 51, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
