Weil Conjectures, Perverse Sheaves and l-adic Fourier Transform

In this book the authors describe the important generalization of the original Weil conjectures, as given by P. The authors follow the important and beautiful methods of Laumon and Brylinski which lead to a simplification of Deligne's theory. Deligne's work is closely related to the sheaf theoretic theory of perverse sheaves.
