WHEN ARE THERE ENOUGH PROJECTIVE PERVERSE SHEAVES?

Abstract Let X be a topologically stratified space, p be any perversity on X and k be a field. We show that the category of p-perverse sheaves on X, constructible with respect to the stratification and with coefficients in k, is equivalent to the category of finite-dimensional modules over a finite-dimensional algebra if and only if X has finitely many strata and the same holds for the category of local systems on each of these. The main component in the proof is a construction of projective covers for simple perverse sheaves.
