Denote by $\mathbb G(k,n)$ the Grassmannian of linear subspaces of dimension $k$ in $\mathbb P^n$. We show that, if $\varphi:\mathbb G(l,n) \to \mathbb G(k,n)$ is a non constant morphism and $l \not=0,n-1$ then $l=k$ or $l=n-k-1$ and…

Let $\psi : G\to GL(V)$ and $\varphi :G \to GL (W)$ be representations of finite group $G$. A linear map $T: V\to W$ is called a morphism from $\psi$ to $\varphi$ if it satisfys $T\psi_g= \varphi_g T$ for each $g\in G$ and let…

Let $\Pi$ be a polar space of rank $n\ge 3$. Denote by ${\mathcal G}_{k}(\Pi)$ the polar Grassmannian formed by singular subspaces of $\Pi$ whose projective dimension is equal to $k$. Suppose that $k$ is an integer not greater than $n-2$…

Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional left vector space over a division ring $R$ and $n\ge 3$. Denote by ${\mathcal G}_{k}$ the Grassmann space of $k$-dimensional subspaces of $V$ and put ${\mathfrak G}_{k}$ for the set of all pairs $(S,U)\in…

Let $\mathcal{F}_h^i(k,n)$ be the $i$th ordered configuration space of all distinct points $H_1,\ldots,H_h$ in the Grassmannian $Gr(k,n)$ of $k$-dimensional subspaces of $\mc^n$, whose sum is a subspace of dimension $i$. We prove that…

We classify nonconstant morphisms $\mathbb{P}^m \to G/P$ for $m \le 4$ when $G = SL(n,\mathbb{C})$ (type~$A$) for a minimal parabolic subgroup $P$. Using the Borel presentation of cohomology and explicit Schubert intersection identities, we…

The Grassmannians of lines in projective N-space, G(1,N), are embedded by way of the Pl"ucker embedding in the projective space P(\bigwedge^2 C^{N+1}). Let H^l be a general l-codimensional linear subspace in this projective space. We…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension n. For k \in {0,...,n}, we denote Gr_{k}(M) the set of compact, connected and oriented submanifolds of M of dimension k. This set is called the non-linear Grassmannian. In this…

Let $k \subset K$ be an extension of fields, and let $A \subset M_{n}(K)$ be a $k$-algebra. We study parameter spaces of $m$-dimensional subspaces of $K^{n}$ which are invariant under $A$. The space $\mathbb{F}_{A}(m,n)$, whose $R$-rational…

There is a hierarchy of commuting soliton equations associated to each symmetric space U/K. When U/K has rank n, the first n flows in the hierarchy give rise to a natural first order non-linear system of partial diffferential equations in n…

Let $k,l,m,n$ be positive integers such that $m-l\ge l>k, m-l>n-k\ge k$ and $m-l>2k^2-k-1$. Let $G_{k}(\mathbb{C}^n)$ denote the Grassmann manifold of $k$-dimensional vector subspaces of $\bc^n$. We show that any continuous map…

Let $f:G_{n,k}\longrightarrow G_{m,l}$ be any continuous map between any two distinct complex Grassmann manifolds of the same dimension where the target is not the complex projective space. We show that, for any given $k,l$, the degree of…

We consider the Grassmann graph of $k$-dimensional subspaces of an $n$-dimensional vector space over the $q$-element field and its subgraph $\Gamma(n,k)_q$ formed by non-degenerate linear $[n,k]_q$ codes. We assume that $1<k<n-1$. It is…

On the Grassmann manifold G (m, n) of m-dimensional subspaces of an n-dimensional projective space P^n, a certain supplementary construction called the normalization is considered. By means of this normalization, one can construct the…

We characterize all $(n-2)$-dimensional linear subspaces of $\mathbb{P}^{n}$ such that the induced linear projection, when restricted to the rational normal curve, gives a Galois morphism. We give an explicit description of these spaces as…

Let $\Gamma(n,k)$ be the Grassmann graph formed by the $k$-dimensional subspaces of a vector space of dimension $n$ over a field $\mathbb F$ and, for $t\in \mathbb{N}\setminus \{0\}$, let $\Delta_t(n,k)$ be the subgraph of $\Gamma(n,k)$…

Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional vector space ($4\le n <\infty$) and let ${\mathcal G}_{k}(V)$ be the Grassmannian formed by all $k$-dimensional subspaces of $V$. The corresponding Grassmann graph will be denoted by $\Gamma_{k}(V)$. We…

Let $G_{n,k}$ denote the complex Grassmann manifold of $k$-dimensional vector subspaces of $\mathbb{C}^n$. Assume $l,k\le \lfloor n/2\rfloor$. We show that, for sufficiently large $n$, any continuous map $h:G_{n,l}\to G_{n,k}$ is rationally…

It is known, that every function on the unit sphere in $\bbr^n$, which is invariant under rotations about some coordinate axis, is completely determined by a function of one variable. Similar results, when invariance of a function reduces…

We study the topological-antitopological fusion equations for supersymmetric sigma models on Grassmannian manifolds G(k,N). We find a basis in which the metric becomes diagonal and the $tt^*$ equations become tractable. The solution for the…
