In this paper we investigate the chromatic number of the Grassmann graphs and of their powers, denoted $J_q(n,m,t)$. In this graph, the vertices correspond to the $m$-dimensional subspaces in $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ and two vertices are adjacent…

We show that for each k and n, the cyclic shift map on the complex Grassmannian Gr(k,n) has exactly $\binom{n}{k}$ fixed points. There is a unique totally nonnegative fixed point, given by taking n equally spaced points on the trigonometric…

We extend Lusternik-Schnirelmann theory to pairs $(f, \phi)$, where $\phi$ is a homotopy equivalence of a space $X$, $f$ is a function on $X$ which decreases along $\phi$ and $(f, \phi)$ satisfies a discrete analog of the Palais-Smale…

Consider the point line-geometry ${\mathcal P}_t(n,k)$ having as points all the $[n,k]$-linear codes having minimum dual distance at least $t+1$ and where two points $X$ and $Y$ are collinear whenever $X\cap Y$ is a $[n,k-1]$-linear code…

Let G be a Lie group equipped with a left-invariant semi-Riemannian metric. Let K be a semisimple subgroup of G generating a left-invariant conformal foliation F of codimension two on G. We then show that the foliation F is minimal. This…

Let $M_{n,k}$ denote the even orthogonal Grassmanian, $SO(2n) / (U(k) \times SO(2n-2k) )$. We study endomorphisms of the rational cohomology algebra of $M_{n,k}$. We prove that an endomorphism of the rational cohomology algebra of…

We study the moduli spaces of polygons in R^2 and R^3, identifying them with subquotients of 2-Grassmannians using a symplectic version of the Gel'fand-MacPherson correspondence. We show that the bending flows defined by Kapovich-Millson…

Let $G_{k,n}$ be the $n$-balanced $k$-partite graph, whose vertex set can be partitioned into $k$ parts, each has $n$ vertices. In this paper, we prove that if $k \geq 2,n \geq 1$, for the edge set $E(G)$ of $G_{k,n}$ $$|E(G)|…

Let $H$ be an infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space and let ${\mathcal L}(H)$ be the logic formed by all closed subspaces of $H$. For every natural $k$ we denote by ${\mathcal G}_{k}(H)$ the Grassmannian consisting of $k$-dimensional…

We revisit the classical aspects of $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ supersymmetric sigma models with Hermitian symmetric target spaces, using the so-called Gross-Neveu (first-order GLSM) formalism. We reformulate these models for complex Grassmannians…

Grassmannian $\mathcal{G}_q(n,k)$ is the set of all $k$-dimensional subspaces of the vector space $\mathbb{F}_q^n.$ Recently, Etzion and Zhang introduced a new notion called covering Grassmannian code which can be used in network coding…

Let $\Pi$ be a polar space of type $\textsf{D}_{n}$. Denote by ${\mathcal G}_{\delta}(\Pi)$, $\delta\in \{+,-\}$ the associated half-spin Grassmannians and write $\Gamma_{\delta}(\Pi)$ for the corresponding half-spin Grassmann graphs. In…

Let $\textrm{UT}_n (K)$ be a unitriangular group over a field $K$ and $\Gamma_{n,k} := \textrm{UT}_n (K)/ \gamma_k(\textrm{UT}_n (K))$, where $\gamma_k (\mathrm{UT}_n(K))$ denotes the $k$-th term of the lower central series of…

Kirill Mackenzie raised the following question: given a groupoid morphism $F$ which is continuous on a neighborhood of base, is it true that $F$ is continuous everywhere? This paper gives a negative answer to that question. Moreover, we…

In recent articles, the investigation of atomic bases in cluster algebras associated to affine quivers led the second-named author to introduce a variety called transverse quiver Grassmannian and the first-named and third-named authors to…

In this paper, we prove that if $E$ is a closed subspace of the holomorphic $L^p$-integrable space and is also contained in the holomorphic $L^q$-integrable space, for any $p > 1$ and any $q > p$, then the dimension of $E$ must be finite.

We show that the flag manifold $\operatorname{Flag}(k_1,\dots, k_p, \mathbb{R}^n)$, with Grassmannian the special case $p=1$, has an $\operatorname{SO}_n(\mathbb{R})$-equivariant embedding in an Euclidean space of dimension $(n-1)(n+2)/2$,…

The affine Grassmannian of $SL_n$ admits an embedding into the Sato Grassmannian, which further admits a Pl\"ucker embedding into the projectivization of Fermion Fock space. Kreiman, Lakshmibai, Magyar, and Weyman describe the linear part…

Let \phi((x_1,...,x_n),(y_1,...,y_n))=(x_1-y_1)^2+...+(x_n-y_n)^2. We say that f:R^n -> C^n preserves distance d>=0 if for each x,y \in R^n \phi(x,y)=d^2 implies \phi(f(x),f(y))=d^2. We prove that if x,y \in R^n (n>=3) and…

We define the notion of a smooth pseudo-Riemannian algebraic variety $(X,g)$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $0$, which is an algebraic analogue of the notion of Riemannian manifold and we study, from a model-theoretic perspective, the…
