Integral Motivic Sheaves And Geometric Representation Theory

With representation-theoretic applications in mind, we construct a formalism of reduced motives with integral coefficients. These are motivic sheaves from which the higher motivic cohomology of the base scheme has been removed. We show that reduced stratified Tate motives satisfy favorable properties including weight and t-structures. We also prove that reduced motives on cellular (ind-)schemes unify various approaches to mixed sheaves in representation theory, such as Soergel-Wendt's semisimplified Hodge motives, Achar-Riche's complexes of parity sheaves, as well as Ho-Li's recent category of graded $\ell$-adic sheaves.
