We give an introduction to the theory of Kazhdan--Lusztig--Stanley polynomials, which compute the graded dimensions of certain intersection cohomology groups even when the corresponding variety does not exist. These polynomials encode deep combinatorial and representation-theoretic information. Important examples arise from Coxeter groups, polytopes, and matroids. We will present some open conjectures in each of these settings.
