Abstract

In this paper, we define the weighted homogeneous space (WHS), denoted by GP[ψH]\frac{G}{P}[\psi_H] where ψH\psi_H is weight function defined on the set of simple roots of GG, by an element HH in the highest Weyl chamber. The weight function ψH\psi_H describes the action of the maximal torus TT on different Bruhat cells and is well behaved via the change of coordinates defined by the action of the Weyl group WW. The major effort in this text is to prove basic algebraic and geometric properties of a weighted homogeneous space. The definition can be compared with an existing version given by Reid-Corti \cite{CR}. Additionally, we express GP[ψH]\frac{G}{P}[\psi_H] as a whole compact quotient of G/PG/P by a certain action of a finite abelian group. Besides, it is presented a criterion when two WHS with possibly different weight systems are isomorphic. The criteria give a simple method to understand the regular maps between two WHS's, defined by matrices with specific polynomial entries. We also explain invariant K\"ahler differentials on WHS by using certain potential functions on GG. Our contribution is a generalization of the results presented in \cite{Al, AL, AKQ}. For that, we explain how the weights affect different computations of chern classes of line bundles given in \cite{AL, AKQ}. Finally, we provide a result on the coordinate ring of a WHS by cluster algebras associated to weighted quivers. Specifically, we show that the coordinate ring of a WHS is a weighted cluster algebra of finite type. In this case, the corresponding Dynkin quiver is equipped with a weight function defined on the vertices where the mutations also affect the weights. We present an embedding of a WHS in a product of weighted projective spaces, showing that the coordinate ring is a weighted graded algebra.
