For Grassmannians, Lusztig's notion of total positivity coincides with positivity of the Plucker coordinates. This coincidence underpins the rich interaction between matroid theory, tropical geometry, and the theory of total positivity.…
We prove that the variety of complete flags for any semisimple algebraic group is rigid in any smooth family of Fano manifolds.
Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group of type $B_2$ over an algebraically closed field of odd characteristic. We prove that the flag variety $G/B$ is D-affine. This extends an earlier result of H.H.Andersen and M.Kaneda.
We prove a positivity result for the T-equivariant K-theory of flag varieties associated to any symmetrizable Kac-Moody group.
In this paper we prove some vanishing theorems for the twisted Dolbeault cohomology of the complete flag varieties associated to a simple, simply connected algebraic group.
The totally nonnegative flag variety was introduced by Lusztig. It has enriched combinatorial, geometric, and Lie-theoretic structures. In this paper, we introduce a (new) $J$-total positivity on the full flag variety of an arbitrary…
The Hecke algebras and quantum group of affine type A admit geometric realizations in terms of complete flags and partial flags over a local field, respectively. Subsequently, it is demonstrated that the quantum group associated to partial…
We show that the set of totally positive unipotent lower-triangular Toeplitz matrices in $GL_n$ form a real semi-algebraic cell of dimension $n-1$. Furthermore we prove a natural cell decomposition for its closure. The proof uses properties…
In this paper, we compute Chow rings of generically twisted (versal) complete flag varieties corresponding to simple Lie groups
We introduce the notion of $\Theta$-positivity in real simple Lie groups. This notion at the same time generalizes Lusztig's total positivity in split real Lie groups and invariant orders in Lie groups of Hermitian type. We show that there…
Given integers $1 \le k_1 < \cdots < k_l \le n-1$, let $\text{Fl}_{k_1,\dots,k_l;n}$ denote the type $A$ partial flag variety consisting of all chains of subspaces $(V_{k_1}\subset\cdots\subset V_{k_l})$ inside $\mathbb{R}^n$, where each…
We present sufficient conditions for total positivity of Riordan arrays. As applications we show that many well-known combinatorial triangles are totally positive and many famous combinatorial numbers are log-convex in a unified approach.
In this (partly expository) paper we show, using ideas from the theory of total positivity, how a number of properties of a semisimple group over the complex numbers can be presented purely in terms of the Weyl group. We also describe some…
The totally nonnegative part of a partial flag variety G/P is known to have a decomposition into semi-algebraic cells. We show that the closure of a cell is again a union of cells and give a combinatorial description of the closure…
We study positivity notions for the tropicalization of type A flag varieties and the flag Dressian. We focus on the hollow case, where we have one constituent of rank 1 and another of corank 1. We characterize the three different notions…
We show that the totally nonnegative part of the twisted product of flag varieties of a Kac-Moody group admits a cellular decomposition, and the closure of each cell is a topological manifold with boundary. We also establish explicit…

In this paper, we consider matrices whose entries are combinatorial sequences which can be expressed in terms of a convolution of elementary and complete homogeneous symmetric functions. We establish the total positivity of these matrices…
Given a compact subset $\Sigma$ of the real numbers obeying some technical conditions, we consider the set of algebraic integers whose conjugates all lie in $\Sigma$. The distribution of conjugates of such an integer defines a probability…
