Given a singular Schubert variety Z in a compact Hermitian symmetric space it is a longstanding question to determine when Z is homologous to a smooth variety Y. We identify those Schubert varieties for which there exist first-order…
The Drinfel'd Lagrangian Grassmannian compactifies the space of algebraic maps of fixed degree from the projective line into the Lagrangian Grassmannian. It has a natural projective embedding arising from the canonical embedding of the…
We present a simple but explicit example of a recent development which connects quantum integrable models with Schubert calculus: there is a purely geometric construction of solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation and their associated…
The main goal of this paper is to investigate the structure of Hopf algebras with the property that either its Jacobson radical is a Hopf ideal or its coradical is a subalgebra. In order to do that we define the Hochschild cohomology of an…
Much of modern Schubert calculus is centered on Schubert varieties in the complete flag variety and on their classes in its integral cohomology ring. Under the Borel isomorphism, these classes are represented by distinguished polynomials…
In this paper, we define a number of closely related isomorphisms. On one side of these isomorphisms sit a number of of algebras generalizing the Hecke and affine Hecke algebras, which we call the "Hecke family"; on the other, we find…
We initiate the study of average intersection theory in real Grassmannians. We define the expected degree $\textrm{edeg} G(k,n)$ of the real Grassmannian $G(k,n)$ as the average number of real $k$-planes meeting nontrivially $k(n-k)$ random…
This is preprint HAL-00429963 (2009). I describe a combinatorial construction of the cohomology classes in compactified moduli spaces of curves $\widehat{Z}_{I}\in H^{*}(\bar{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n})$ starting from the following data: an odd…
We suggest the point of view that the Schubert classes of the affine Grassmannian of a simple algebraic group should be considered as Schur-positive symmetric functions. In particular, we give a geometric explanation of the Schur positivity…
Given a Schubert class on $Gr(k,V)$ where $V$ is a symplectic vector space of dimension $2n$, we consider its restriction to the symplectic Grassmannian $SpGr(k,V)$ of isotropic subspaces. Pragacz gave tableau formulae for positively…
Given locally compact quantum groups $\G_1$ and $\G_2$, we show that if the convolution algebras $L^1(\G_1)$ and $L^1(\G_2)$ are isometrically isomorphic as algebras, then $\G_1$ is isomorphic either to $\G_2$ or the commutant $\G_2'$.…
Let k be a field of characteristic zero. We consider graded subalgebras A of k[x_1,...,x_m]/(x_1^2,...,x_m^2) generated by d linearly independant linear forms. Representations of matroids over k provide a natural description of the…
In this paper we construct a graded Lie algebra on the space of cochains on a $\mathbbZ_2$-graded vector space that are skew-symmetric in the odd variables. The Lie bracket is obtained from the classical Gerstenhaber bracket by (partial)…
The Schur polynomials $s_{\lambda}$ are essential in understanding the representation theory of the general linear group. They also describe the cohomology ring of the Grassmannians. For $\rho = (n, n-1, \dots, 1)$ a staircase shape and…
Traditional formulations of geometric problems from the Schubert calculus, either in Plucker coordinates or in local coordinates provided by Schubert cells, yield systems of polynomials that are typically far from complete intersections and…
We consider the rational dynamical quantum group $E_y(gl_2)$ and introduce an $E_y(gl_2)$-module structure on $\oplus_{k=0}^n H^*_{GL_n\times\C^\times}(T^*Gr(k,n))'$, where $H^*_{GL_n\times\C^\times}(T^*Gr(k,n))'$ is the equivariant…
Let $A_n$ be the $n$-th Weyl algebra, and let $G\subset\Sp_{2n}(\C)\subset\Aut(A_n)$ be a finite group of linear automorphisms of $A_n$. In this paper we compute the multiplicative structure on the Hochschild cohomology $\HH^*(A_n^G)$ of…
Isomorphisms are constructed between generalized Schur algebras in different degrees. The construction covers both the classical case (of general linear groups over infinite fields of arbitrary characteristic) and the quantized case (in…
In this paper we prove that the cyclotomic Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras in type A, $\mathscr R_n^\Lambda$, are $\mathbb{Z}$-free. We then extend the graded cellular basis of $\mathscr R_n^\Lambda$ constructed by Hu and Mathas to…
A celebrated result of Farahat and Higman constructs an algebra $\mathrm{FH}$ which "interpolates" the centres $Z(\mathbb{Z}S_n)$ of group algebras of the symmetric groups $S_n$. We extend these results from symmetric group algebras to type…
