The construction is sufficiently general to be applicable to different situations. One of the main applications is to the construction of modules over the graded Hecke algebras associated to complex reductive groups starting with equivariant complexes on the unipotent variety. It also applies to the affine quantum enveloping algebras of type A. As is already known, in each case the algebra can be realized as a convolution n algebra. Our construction turns suitable equi¨ariant deri¨ed categories into an abundant source of modules o¨er such algebras; most of these are new, in that, so far the only modules have been provided by suitable Borel᎐Moore homology or cohomol-Ž. ogy with respect to a constant sheaf or by an appropriate K-theoretic variant. In a sequel to this paper we will apply these constructions to equivariant perverse sheaves and also obtain a general multiplicity formula for the simple modules in the composition series of the modules constructed here.

Numerous applications of this to splittings in the motivic stable homotopy category and to Algebraic K-Theory are worked out in several related papers by Gunnar Carlsson and the authors.

It extends the work of Brion who considered the smooth case using equivariant cohomology. Equivariant intersection cohomology is a theory due to Brylinski and the second author. As an application, a surprising relation between the intersection cohomology of Chow hypersurfaces is established in the last section of the paper. 1. We will first recall some basic terminology from [Br] p. 126. Let G denote a complex connected reductive group, with T a chosen maximal torus and W = N G (T)=T its Weyl group. S will denote the symmetric algebra on the group of characters of T tensored with Q and S W will denote the invariants for the action of W on S. We make S into a graded algebra by assigning the degree 2 to the characters of T. H will denote the graded W sub-module of S formed of the elements that are W-harmonic, i.e., killed by every differential operator with constant coefficients, invariant by W and with no constant term. Then H is isomorphic to the regular representation of W and the multiplication of S induces an isomorphism of S W H with S as modules over W and over S W. Let denote the signature of W. For every W-module M, one denotes by M a the set Manuscript received

Also, we show that the restrictions to Y of the tangent bundle T X and its logarithmic analogue S X decompose into a direct sum of line bundles. This yields closed formulae for the equivariant Chern classes of T X and S X , and, in turn, for the Chern classes of reductive groups considered by Kiritchenko.

In this paper we study in detail a family of cohomology and homology theories which we call Bredon-style theories that are of this type and in the spirit of the classical Bredon cohomology and homology theories defined for the actions of compact topological groups on topological spaces. We establish Riemann-Roch theorems in this setting: it is shown elsewhere that such Riemann-Roch theorems provide a powerful tool for deriving formulae involving virtual fundamental classes associated to dg-stacks, for example, moduli stacks of stable curves provided with a virtual structure sheaf associated to a perfect obstruction theory. We conclude the present paper with a brief application of this nature.
