Do the nearby cycle and Beilinson's vanishing cycle functors commute?
Let $X$ be a complex algebraic variety with a pair of regular functions $f_1,f_2$. To these functions we can associate various functors: the nearby cycles functor $\Psi_{f_i}$, the vanishing cycles ...

Explicit description of perverse sheaves on a disk
In How to glue perverse sheaves Beilinson claims that the category of perverse sheaves on the complex unit disk $D$ with the stratification with the closed strata $\{0\}\subset D$ is equivalent to the ...

Nearby cycles without a function
Suppose that:
$X$ is a smooth complex algebraic variety,
$f : X \to D$ is a proper map to a small disc, smooth away from 0,
$Z_\epsilon = f^{-1}(\epsilon)$, and $Z = Z_0$.
Then there is a procedure (...

How to glue perverse sheaves of abelian groups?
Let $X$ be a complex algebraic variety and consider the category $P(X)$ of perverse sheaves of complex vector spaces.
Let $f:X\rightarrow \mathbb C$ be a regular function, $Z$ its zero set and $U$ ...

Computation of vanishing cycles
Here's the problem I'm looking at:
$F$ is a perverse sheaf (or a regular holonomic D-module, or even a mixed hodge module) on $\mathbb{C}^2$ stratified by $z_1 = 0$, $z_2=0$. It can be caracterized ...
