Title: The geometry of Arthur packets

Abstract: This talk uses two examples to show how Arthur parameters determine a category of equivariant perverse sheaves and how the microlocal perspective on this category reveals the Arthur packet attached to the Arthur parameter. The full picture is explained in Arthur packets for p-adic groups by way of microlocal vanishing cycles, with examples, joint with Andrew Fiori, Ahmed Moussaoui, James Mracek and Bin Xu, to appear in Memoirs of the American Mathematical Society. The talk includes some remarks on an emerging categorical local Langlands correspondence.
