The zero locus of a generic section of a vector bundle over a manifold defines a submanifold. A classical problem in geometry asks to realise a specified submanifold in this way. We study two cases; a point in a generalised flag manifold…
We study vector bundles on flag varieties over an algebraically closed field $k$. In the first part, we suppose $G=G_k(d,n)$ $(2\le d\leq n-d)$ to be the Grassmannian manifold parameterizing linear subspaces of dimension $d$ in $k^n$, where…
We study when a smooth variety $X$, embedded diagonally in its Cartesian square, is the zero scheme of a section of a vector bundle of rank $\dim(X)$ on $X\times X$. We call this the diagonal property (D). It was known that it holds for all…
In this note, we give Gysin formulas for partial flag bundles for the classical groups. We then give Gysin formulas for Schubert varieties in Grassmann bundles, including isotropic ones. All these formulas are proved in a rather uniform way…
We investigate the orientability of a class of vector bundles over flag manifolds of real semi-simple Lie groups, which include the tangent bundle and also stable bundles of certain gradient flows. Closed formulas, in terms of roots, are…
Let G be a reductive algebraic group over a field k and let B be a Borel subgroup in G. We demonstrate how a number of results on the cohomology of line bundles on the flag manifold G/B have had interesting consequences in the…
We construct Koppelman formulas on manifolds of flags in $\C^N$ for forms with values in any holomorphic line bundle as well as in the tautological vector bundles and their duals. As an application we obtain new explicit proofs of some…
As a natural extension of the theory of uniform vector bundles on Fano manifolds, we consider uniform principal bundles, and study them by means of the associated flag bundles, as their natural projective geometric realizations. In this…
We study the geometry of flag manifolds under different embeddings into a product of Grassmannians. We show that differential geometric objects and operations -- tangent vector, metric, normal vector, exponential map, geodesic, parallel…
We define a variety of doubly indexed flags, this is a smooth, projective variety, and we describe it as an iterated over Grassmannian varieties. On the other hand, we consider the variety of partial flags which are stabilized by a given…
Let $G$ be the group scheme $\operatorname{SL}_{d+1}$ over $\mathbb{Z}$ and let $Q$ be the parabolic subgroup scheme corresponding to the simple roots $\alpha_{2},\cdots,\alpha_{d-1}$. Then $G/Q$ is the $\mathbb{Z} $-scheme of partial flags…
We present here some conjectures on the diagonalizability of uniform principal bundles on rational homogeneous spaces, that are natural extensions of classical theorems on uniform vector bundles on the projective space, and study the…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p\neq 0$. Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over $k$, $P \subseteq G$ be a parabolic subgroup and $\lambda: P \longrightarrow \mathbb G_m$ be a strictly anti-dominant…
Flag manifolds are shown to describe the relations between configurations of distinguished points (topologically equivalent to punctures) embedded in a general spacetime manifold. Grassmannians are flag manifolds with just two subsets of…
We give push-forward formulas for all flag bundles of types A, B, C, D. The formulas (and also the proofs) involve only Segre classes of the original vector bundles and characteristic classes of universal bundles. As an application, we…
We study subvarieties of the flag variety called Hessenberg varieties, defined by certain linear conditions. These subvarieties arise naturally in applications including geometric representation theory, number theory, and numerical…
Let P be a parabolic subgroup of a semisimple complex Lie group G defined by a subset \Sigma of simple roots of G, and let E_\phi be a homogeneous vector bundle over the flag manifold G/P corresponding to a linear representation \phi of P.…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over $k$, $P \subseteq G$ be a parabolic subgroup and $\lambda: P \longrightarrow G$ be a strictly anti-dominant character. Let $C$ be a…
We obtain a geometric construction of a ``standard monomial basis'' for the homogeneous coordinate ring associated with any ample line bundle on any flag variety. This basis is compatible with Schubert varieties, opposite Schubert…
We compute the algebra of differential invariants of unparametrized curves in the homogeneous G(2) flag varieties, namely in G(2)/P. This gives a solution to the equivalence problem for such curves. We consider the cases of integral and…
