We prove a root system uniform, concise combinatorial rule for Schubert calculus of_minuscule_ and_cominuscule_ flag manifolds G/P (the latter are also known as "compact Hermitian symmetric spaces"). We connect this geometry to the poset…
This chapter combines an introduction and research survey about Schubert varieties. The theme is to combinatorially classify their singularities using a family of polynomial ideals generated by determinants.
A solution is given to the following problem: how to compute the multiplicity, or more generally the Hilbert function, at a point on a Schubert variety in an orthogonal Grassmannian. Standard monomial theory is applied to translate the…
We resolve a basic problem on subspace distances that often arises in applications: How can the usual Grassmann distance between equidimensional subspaces be extended to subspaces of different dimensions? We show that a natural solution is…
We present an approach over arbitrary fields to bound the degree of intersection of families of varieties in terms of how these concentrate on algebraic sets of smaller codimension. This provides in particular a substantial extension of the…
We find explicit formulas for the Hilbert series of residual intersections of a scheme in terms of the Hilbert series of its conormal modules. In a previous paper we proved that such formulas should exist. We give applications to the…
This work is devoted to establish the strong convergence results of an iterative algorithm generated by the shrinking projection method in Hilbert spaces. The proposed approximation sequence is used to find a common element in the set of…
We show that the Littlewood-Richardson coefficients are values at 1 of certain parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials for affine symmetric groups. These q-analogues of Littlewood-Richardson multiplicities coincide with those previously…
Schubert polynomials were discovered by A. Lascoux and M. Sch\"utzenberger in the study of cohomology rings of flag manifolds in 1980's. These polynomials generalize Schur polynomials, and form a linear basis of multivariate polynomials. In…
In this paper, we investigate Erd\H os--Ko--Rado type theorems for families of vectors from $\{0,\pm 1\}^n$ with fixed numbers of $+1$'s and $-1$'s. Scalar product plays the role of intersection size. In particular, we sharpen our earlier…
Using a generalization of the Schensted insertion algorithm to rc-graphs, we provide a Littlewood-Richardson rule for multiplying certain Schubert polynomials by Schur polynomials.
Weprovide an upper bound for generalized Littlewood-Richardson coefficients $c^w_{uv}$, where $u$ is a two-row Young diagram corresponding to a Grassmannian permutation. We end with a conjecture on the upper bounds for all such structure…
We compute with SageMath the group of all linear symmetries for the Littlewood-Richardson associated to the representations of $SL_3$. We find that there are 144 symmetries, more than the 12 symmetries known for the Littlewood-Richardson…
We determine the necessary and sufficient combinatorial conditions for which the tensor product of two irreducible polynomial representations of $GL(n,\mathbb{C})$ is isomorphic to another. As a consequence we discover families of…
Jack polynomials generalize several classical families of symmetric polynomials, including Schur polynomials, and are further generalized by Macdonald polynomials. In 1989, Richard Stanley conjectured that if the Littlewood-Richardson…
We give a new residual intersection decomposition for the refined intersection products of Fulton-MacPherson. Our formula refines the celebrated residual intersection formula of Fulton, Kleiman, Laksov, and MacPherson. The new decomposition…
Benkart, Sottile, and Stroomer have completely characterized by Knuth and dual Knuth equivalence a bijective proof of the conjugation symmetry of the Littlewood-Richardson coefficients. Tableau-switching provides an algorithm to produce…
We consider configurations of lines in 3-space with incidences prescribed by a graph. This defines a subvariety in a product of Grassmannians. Leveraging a connection with rigidity theory in the plane, for any graph, we determine the…
We discuss the problem of determining the complete weight hierarchy of linear error correcting codes associated to Grassmann varieties and, more generally, to Schubert varieties in Grassmannians. The problem is partially solved in the case…
We consider Schubert problems with respect to flags osculating the rational normal curve. These problems are of special interest when the osculation points are all real -- in this case, for zero-dimensional Schubert problems, the solutions…
