In this paper we consider Grassmannians in arbitrary characteristic. Generalizing Kapranov's well-known characteristic-zero results we construct dual exceptional collections on them (which are however not strong) as well as a tilting…

Following [42], positroid cells ${\mathcal S}_{\mathcal M}^{\mbox{TNN}}$ in totally non-negative Grassmannians ${Gr^{\mbox{TNN}} (k,n)}$ admit parametrizations by positive weights on planar bicolored directed perfect networks in the disk.…

In the Grassmannian $Gr_{\mathbb{C}}(k,n)$ we have positroid varieties $\Pi_f$, each indexed by a bounded affine permutation $f$ and containing torus-fixed points $\lambda \in \Pi_f$. In this paper we consider the partially ordered set…

A positroid is a matroid defined by Postnikov to study the cells in the non-negative part of the Grassmannian. They are in bijection with decorated permutations. We show a way to explain contraction and restriction of positroids in terms of…

To each finite subset of $\mathbb{Z}^2$ (a diagram), one can associate a subvariety of a complex Grassmannian (a diagram variety), and a representation of a symmetric group (a Specht module). Liu has conjectured that the cohomology class of…

We give a purely combinatorial proof of the positivity of the stabilized forms of the generalized exponents associated to each classical root system. In finite type A_{n-1}, we rederive the description of the generalized exponents in terms…

Kazhdan-Lusztig ideals, a family of generalized determinantal ideals investigated in [Woo-Yong '08], provide an explicit choice of coordinates and equations encoding a neighbourhood of a torus-fixed point of a Schubert variety on a type A…

We study totally nonnegative parts of critical varieties in the Grassmannian. We show that each totally nonnegative critical variety Crit$^{\ge0}_f$ is the image of an affine poset cyclohedron under a continuous map and use this map to…

We formulate a higher-rank version of the boundary measurement map for weighted planar bipartite networks in the disk. It sends a network to a linear combination of SL$_r$-webs, and is built upon the r-fold dimer model on the network. When…
