For $n$ a power of two, we give a complete description of the cohomology algebra $H^*(\widetilde G_{n,3};\mathbb Z_2)$ of the Grassmann manifold $\widetilde G_{n,3}$ of oriented $3$-planes in $\mathbb R^n$. We do this by finding a reduced…

We give a description of the mod 2 cohomology algebra of the oriented Grassmann manifold $\widetilde G_{2^t,4}$ as the quotient of a polynomial algebra by a certain ideal. In the process we find a Gr\"obner basis for that ideal, which we…

The integral cohomology algebra of $\widetilde G_{6,3}$ has been determined in the recent work of Kalafat and Yal\c{c}inkaya. We completely determine the integral cohomology algebra of $\widetilde G_{n,3}$ for $n=8$ and $n=10$. The main…

In this paper we study the mod $2$ cohomology ring of the Grasmannian $\widetilde{G}_{n,3}$ of oriented $3$-planes in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We determine the degrees of the indecomposable elements in the cohomology ring. We also obtain an almost…

We study the structure of mod 2 cohomology rings of oriented Grassmannians $\tilde{\operatorname{Gr}}_k(n)$ of oriented $k$-planes in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Our main focus is on the structure of the cohomology ring ${\rm…

We study the $\mathbb Z_2$-zero-divisor cup-length, denoted by $\operatorname{zcl}_{\mathbb Z_2}(\widetilde G_{n,3})$, of the Grassmann manifolds $\widetilde G_{n,3}$ of oriented $3$-dimensional vector subspaces in $\mathbb R^n$. Some lower…

Grassmann manifolds $G_{k,n}$ are among the central objects in geometry and topology. The Borel picture of the mod 2 cohomology of $G_{k,n}$ is given as a polynomial algebra modulo a certain ideal $I_{k,n}$. The purpose of this paper is to…

A Gr\"obner basis for the ideal determining mod 2 cohomology of Grassmannian G_{3,n} is obtained. This is used, along with the method of obstruction theory, to establish some new immersion results for these manifolds.

We apply discrete algebraic Morse theory to calculate the Anick resolution of the group algebra of the group $G_3^2$. As a corollary, we evaluate Hochschild cohomologies of $G_3^2$ with coefficients in all 1-dimensional bimodules. Almost…

We study the real Grassmann manifold $G_{2n}^n$ (of $n$-subspaces in $\mathbb R^{2n}$), and the action of $Z_2$ on it by taking the orthogonal complement. The homological index of this action is estimated from above and from below. In case…

The integral singular cohomology ring of the Grassmann variety parametrizing $r$-dimensional subspaces in the $n$-dimensional complex vector space is naturally an irreducible representation of the Lie algebra of all the $n\times n$ matrices…

We calculate the heights of Stiefel--Whitney classes of the canonical vector bundle over the oriented Grassmannians $\widetilde G_{n,4}\cong SO(n)/(SO(4)\times SO(n-4))$ in the cases $n\in\{2^t-2,2^t-1,2^t,2^t+1\}$, $t\ge4$. Using some…

In this paper we give a survey of various results about the topology of oriented Grassmannian bundles related to the exceptional Lie group G_2. Some of these results are new. We give self-contained proofs here. One often encounters these…

In this paper we compute the cohomology of certain special cases of nilpotent algebras in a complex \zt-graded vector space of arbitrary finite dimension. These algebras are generalizations of the only two nontrivial complex 2-dimensional…

Let $\widetilde{I}_{2n,k}$ denote the space of $k$-dimensional, oriented isotropic subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$, called the oriented isotropic Grassmannian. Let $f \colon \widetilde{I}_{2n,k} \rightarrow \widetilde{I}_{2m,l} $ be a map…

This paper determines the RO(G)-graded Eilenberg-MacLane cohomology of the real, infinite, equivariant Grassmannians in the case G=Z/2. Possible connections with motivic characteristic classes for quadratic bundles are briefly discussed.

The abelian category of tetramodules over an associative bialgebra $A$ is related with the Gerstenhaber-Schack (GS) cohomology as $Ext_\Tetra(A,A)=H_\GS(A)$. We construct a 2-fold monoidal structure on the category of tetramodules of a…
