The fibre of the Bott-Samelson Resolution

Algebraic Geometry 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Let GG denote an adjoint semi-simple group over an algebraically closed field and TT a maximal torus of GG. Following Contou-Carr\`ere [CC], we consider the Bott-Samelson resolution of a Schubert variety as a variety of galleries in the building associated to the group GG. We first determine a cellular decomposition of this variety analogous to the Bruhat decomposition of a Schubert variety and then we describe the fibre of this resolution above a TT-fixed point.
