Matroid varieties are the closures in the Grassmannian of sets of points defined by specifying which Pl\"ucker coordinates vanish and which don't --- the set of nonvanishing Pl\"ucker coordinates forms a well-studied object called a…
The degree of the Grassmannian with respect to the Pl\"ucker embedding is well-known. However, the Pl\"ucker embedding, while ubiquitous in pure mathematics, is almost never used in applied mathematics. In applied mathematics, the…
Polynomial solutions to the KP hierarchy are known to be parametrized by a cone over an infinite-dimensional Grassmann variety. Using the notion of Schubert derivation on a Grassmann algebra, we encode the classical Pl\"ucker equations of…
We introduce a class of so-called Pl$\ddot{\mathrm{u}}$cker polynomials with respect to $2l\times l$ matrices, which varies the standard quadratic Pl$\ddot{\mathrm{u}}$cker expression by increased power and twisted linear forms. Besides…
For an arbitrary field of any characteristic we give an explicit description, in terms of Pl\"ucker coordinates, of the projective linear space that cuts out the Lagrangian-Grassmannian variety $L(n,2n)$ of maximal isotropic subspaces in a…
We classify all the embeddings of P^n in a Grassmannian of lines G(1,N) such that the composition with Pl\"ucker is given by a linear system of quadrics of P^n.
Matroid varieties are the closures in the Grassmannian of sets of points defined by specifying which Pl\"ucker coordinates vanish and which don't. In general these varieties are very ill-behaved, but in many cases one can estimate their…
The first problem we investigate is the following: given $k\in \mathbb{R}_{\ge 0}$ and a vector $v$ of Pl\"ucker coordinates of a point in the real Grassmannian, is the vector obtained by taking the $k$th power of each entry of $v$ again a…
There is a cell decomposition of the nonnegative Grassmannian. For each cell, totally positive bases(TP-bases) is defined as the minimal set of Pl\"ucker variables such that all other nonzero Pl\"ucker variables in the cell can be expressed…
This work is motivated by the relation between the KP and BKP integrable hierarchies, whose $\tau$-functions may be viewed as sections of dual determinantal and Pfaffian line bundles over infinite dimensional Grassmannians. In finite…
The polynomial ring $B$ in infinitely many indeterminates $(x_1,x_2,\ldots)$, with rational coefficients, has a vector space basis of Schur polynomials, parametrized by partitions. The goal of this note is to provide an explanation of the…
Let $\G(k,r)$ be the Grassmannian of $k$--subspaces in $\Proj^r$ embedded in $\Proj^{N(k,r)}$, with $N(k,r)={{r+1}\choose {k+1}}-1$, via the Pl\"ucker embedding. In this paper, extending some classical results by Gallarati (see \cite…
The isotropic Grassmannian parametrizes isotropic subspaces of a vector space equipped with a quadratic form. In this paper, we show that any maximal isotropic Grassmannian in its Pl\"ucker embedding can be defined by pulling back the…
In this article a family of recursive and self-similar matrices is constructed. It is shown that the Pl\"ucker matrix of the Isotropic Grassmannian variety is a direct sum of this class of matrices.
The P-Eulerian polynomial counts the linear extensions of a labeled partially ordered set, P, by their number of descents. It is known that the P-Eulerian polynomials are real-rooted for various classes of posets P. The purpose of this…
We prove the (equivariant) noetherian property for a wide class of varieties generalizing the class of Plucker varieties (Theorem 1). It improves previous results of Draisma-Eggermont who treated the case of bounded Plucker varieties. Key…
We prove a formula for the degrees of Ikeda and Naruse's $P$-Grothendieck polynomials using combinatorics of shifted tableaux. We show this formula can be used in conjunction with results of Hamaker, Marberg, and Pawlowski to obtain an…
The Plucker relations define a projective embedding of the Grassmann variety Gr(k,n). We give another finite set of quadratic equations which defines the same embedding, and whose elements all have rank 6. This is achieved by constructing a…
We introduce a superpotential for partial flag varieties of type $A$. This is a map $W: Y^\circ \to \mathbb{C}$, where $Y^\circ$ is the complement of an anticanonical divisor on a product of Grassmannians. The map $W$ is expressed in terms…
We launch the study of the tropicalization of the symplectic Grassmannian, that is, the space of all linear subspaces that are isotropic with respect to a fixed symplectic form. We formulate tropical analogues of several equivalent…
