Let $B$ be a Borel subgroup of $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{C})$ and $\mathbb{T}$ a maximal torus contained in $B$. Then $\mathbb{T}$ acts on $\mathrm{GL}_{n}(\mathbb{C})/B$ and every Schubert variety is $\mathbb{T}$-invariant. We say that a…
We introduce trim resolutions of complex algebraic varieties, a strengthening of the notion of small resolution. We prove that the characteristic cycle of the intersection cohomology sheaf of a variety admitting a trim resolution is…
A complete intersection $f_1=\cdots=f_k=0$ is sch\"on, if $f_1=\cdots=f_j=0$ defines a sch\"on subvariety of an algebraic torus for every $j\leqslant k$. This class includes nondegenerate complete intersections, critical loci of their…
In this paper, we define and study Clifford quadratic complete intersections. After showing some properties of Clifford quantum polynomial algebras, we show that there is a natural one-to-one correspondence between Clifford quadratic…
For $m\geq n$, Let $K$ be an algebraic closed base field, and define $\tau_{m,n,k}$ to be the set of $m\times n$ matrices over $K$ with kernel dimension $\geq k$. This is a projective subvariety of $\mathbb{P}^{mn-1}$, and is usually called…
We realise the Bott-Samelson resolutions of type A Schubert varieties as quiver Grassmannians. In order to explicitly describe this isomorphism, we introduce the notion of a \textit{geometrically compatible} decomposition for any…
Using polytopes defined in an earlier paper, we show in this paper the existence of degenerations of a large class of Schubert varieties of SL_n to toric varieties by extending the method used by Gonciulea and Lakshmibai for a minuscule G/P…
We give a permutation pattern avoidance criteria for determining when the projection map from the flag variety to a Grassmannian induces a fiber bundle structure on a Schubert variety. In particular, we introduce the notion of a split…
In this note, we discuss the flexibility of Schubert classes in homogeneous varieties. We give several constructions for representing multiples of a Schubert class by irreducible subvarieties. We sharpen [R, Theorem 3.1] by proving that…
A notion of a nearly toric variety is introduced. The examples of nearly toric varieties in the context of Schubert varieties are discussed. In particular, combinatorial characterizations of the smooth and singular nearly toric Schubert…
Recently, we have witnessed tremendous applications of algebraic intersection theory to branches of mathematics, that previously seemed very distant. In this article we review some of them. Our aim is to provide a unified approach to the…
The parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials for Grassmannians can be computed by counting Dyck partitions. We "lift" this combinatorial formula to the corresponding category of singular Soergel bimodules to obtain bases of the Hom spaces…
We give an explicit combinatorial description of the irreducible components of the singular locus of the Schubert variety X_w for any element w in S_n. Our description of the irreducible components is computationally more efficient (O(n^6))…
We show that the principal specialization of the Schubert polynomial at $w$ is bounded below by $1+p_{132}(w)+p_{1432}(w)$ where $p_u(w)$ is the number of occurrences of the pattern $u$ in $w$, strengthening a previous result by A.…
We enumerate smooth and rationally smooth Schubert varieties in the classical finite types A, B, C, and D, extending Haiman's enumeration for type A. To do this enumeration, we introduce a notion of staircase diagrams on a graph. These…
Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group of adjoint type of rank $n$ over $\mathbb{C}$. Let $T$ be a maximal torus of $G$, and $B$ be a Borel subgroup of $G$ containing $T$. Let $W=N_{G}(T)/T$ be the Weyl group of $G$. Let…
We consider the loci of invertible linear maps $f : \mathbb{C}^n \to {(\mathbb{C}^n)}^*$ together with pairs of flags $(E_\bullet, F_\bullet)$ in $\mathbb{C}^n$ such that the various restrictions $f : F_j \to E_i^*$ have specified ranks.…
Let G be a complex reductive algebraic group. We study complete intersections in a spherical homogeneous space G/H defined by a generic collection of sections from G-invariant linear systems. Whenever nonempty, all such complete…
We give the construction of a class of multiple locally complete intersection structures on a smooth algebraic variety as support. This class contains the structures defined locally by equations of the form $x^n=0$, $y^2=0$, $z=0, >...,…
Enriched versions of type A Schubert polynomials are constructed with coefficients in a polynomial ring in variables $c_1, c_2, \ldots$. Specializing these variables to $0$ recovers the double Schubert polynomials of Lascoux and…
