Abstract

Let G/HG/H be a homogeneous variety, and let XX be a GG-equivariant embedding of G/HG/Hsuch that the number of GG-orbits in XX is finite. We show that the equivariant Borel-Moore homology of XX has a filtration with associated graded module the direct sum of the equivariant Borel-Moore homologies of the GG-orbits. If TT is a maximal torus of GG such that each GG-orbit has a TT-fixed point, then the equivariant filtration descends to give a filtration on the ordinary Borel-Moore homology of XX. We apply our findings to certain wonderful compactifications as well as to double flag varieties.
