Brasselet, the second author and Yokura introduced Hodge-theoretic Hirzebruch-type characteristic classes $IT_{1, \ast}$, and conjectured that they are equal to the Goresky-MacPherson $L$-classes for pure-dimensional compact complex…
We compute the coherent cohomology of the structure sheaf of complex periplectic Grassmannians. In particular, we show that it can be decomposed as a tensor product of the singular cohomology ring of a Grassmannian for either the symplectic…
Consider k x n matrices with rank conditions placed on intervals of columns. The ranks that are actually achievable correspond naturally to upper triangular partial permutation matrices, and we call the corresponding subvarieties of Gr(k,n)…
We consider ind-varieties obtained as direct limits of chains of embeddings $X_1\stackrel{\phi_1}{\hookrightarrow}\dots\stackrel{\phi_{m-1}}{\hookrightarrow}…
We prove that if a complete Riemannian surface $(\Sigma,d_\Sigma)$ is quasi-isometric to some bounded degree graph $G$, then $\Sigma$ admits a triangulation whose 1-skeleton is quasi-isometric to it when equipped with the simplicial metric.…
Let G be a semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. In this note, we show that an irreducible closed subvariety of the flag variety of G is compatibly split by the unique canonical Frobenius…
Let $L$ be a Levi subgroup of $GL_N$ which acts by left multiplication on a Schubert variety $X(w)$ in the Grassmannian $G_{d,N}$. We say that $X(w)$ is a spherical Schubert variety if $X(w)$ is a spherical variety for the action of $L$. In…
Comparability graphs are graphs which have transitive orientations. The dimension of a poset is the least number of linear orders whose intersection gives this poset. The dimension ${\rm dim}(X)$ of a comparability graph $X$ is the…
This note is concerned with the geometric classification of connected Lie groups of dimension three or less, endowed with left-invariant Riemannian metrics. On the one hand, assembling results from the literature, we give a review of the…
For an acyclic quiver with three vertices, we consider the canonical decomposition of a non-Schurian root and associate certain representations of a generalized Kronecker quiver. These representations correspond to points contained in the…
In this paper, a description of the set-theoretical defining equations of symplectic (type C) Grassmannian/flag/Schubert varieties in corresponding (type A) algebraic varieties is given as linear polynomials in Pl$\ddot{u}$cker coordinates,…
We state a precise conjectural isomorphism between localizations of the equivariant quantum K-theory ring of a flag variety and the equivariant K-homology ring of the affine Grassmannian, in particular relating their Schubert bases and…
We define a certain class of simple varieties over a field $k$ by a constructive recipe and show how to control their (equivariant) truncating invariants. Consequently, we prove that on simple varieties: (i) if $k=\overline{k}$ and…
Peterson varieties are subvarieties of flag varieties and their (equivariant) cohomology rings are given by Fukukawa-Harada-Masuda in type A and soon later the author with Harada and Masuda gives an explicit presentation of the…
Positroid subvarieties of complex Grassmannians are the images of the Richardson subvarieties of the full flag varieties under the natural projection map. Positroid varieties admit natural embedding into certain quiver Grassmannians for…
In a classical-type flag variety, we consider a Schubert variety associated to a vexillary (signed) permutation, and establish a combinatorial formula for the Hilbert-Samuel multiplicity of a point on such a Schubert variety. The formula is…
We relate the graph isomorphism problem to the solvability of certain systems of linear equations with nonnegative variables. This version replaces the two previous versions of this paper.
The Schubert polynomials lift the Schur basis of symmetric polynomials into a basis for Z[x1,x2,...]. We suggest the "prism tableau model" for these polynomials. A novel aspect of this alternative to earlier results is that it directly…
We study toric degenerations of opposite Schubert and Richardson varieties inside degenerations of Grassmannians and flag varieties. These degenerations are parametrized by matching fields in the sense of Sturmfels and Zelevinsky. We…
We give a closed-form formula for the Hilbert function of the tangent cone at the identity of a Schubert variety X in the Grassmannian in both group theoretic and combinatorial terms. We also give a formula for the multiplicity of X at the…
