We introduce certain canonical blow-ups $\mathcal T_{s,p,n}$, as well as their distinct submanifolds $\mathcal M_{s,p,n}$, of Grassmann manifolds $G(p,n)$ by partitioning the Pl\"ucker coordinates with respect to a parameter $s$. Various…
In this paper, we develop a simple uniform picture incorporating the Kausz compactifications and the spaces of complete collineations by blowing up Grassmannians $G(p,n)$ according to a torus action $\mathbb G_m$. We show that each space of…
We study two closely related families of varieties arising from genus $0$ stable maps to the Lagrangian Grassmannian $\operatorname{LG}(n,2n)$. First, we construct the Kausz--type compactification $\mathcal {TL}_n$ of the space of symmetric…
Let $\mathbf{LG}(V\oplus V^*)$ and $\mathbf{OG}^+(V\oplus V^*)$ denote the Lagrangian and orthogonal Grassmannians endowed with the natural $\mathbb{G}_m$-actions, respectively. Thaddeus proved that over $\mathbb{C}$, the Hilbert quotients…
In this report we use our methods in arXiv:2204.03548 and its upcoming generalization to complete the construction of canonical mirror models for all cominuscule homogeneous spaces, by considering the maximal orthogonal Grassmannians…
In this paper we classify weak Fano varieties that can be obtained by blowing-up general points in prime Fano varieties. We also classify spherical blow-ups of Grassmannians in general points, and we compute their effective cone. These…
We classify when the blowup of a complex Grassmannian $G(k, n)$ along a smooth Schubert subvariety $Z$ is Fano. We compute almost all the two-point, genus zero Gromov-Witten invariants of the blowup when $Z=G(k, n-1)$. We further prove a…
Truncated Grassmannians are defined as closures of orbits of abelian unipotent groups acting on the degree truncations of projectivized wedge powers. We show that such truncations in a more general setup show up in the description of the…
We generalize in positive characteristics some results of Bien and Brion on log homogeneous compactifications of a homogeneous space under the action of a connected reductive group. We also construct an explicit smooth log homogeneous…
In this paper we show a general method to compactify certain open varieties by adding normal crossing divisors. This is done by proving that {\it blowing up along an arrangement of subvarieties} can be carried out. Important examples such…
We present an explicit construction of tilting bundles on cotangent bundles of Grassmannians of 2-planes. This construction is based on Kapranov's exceptional collection for the underlying Grassmannians, and utilizes specific iterative…
MacPherson conjectured that the Grassmannian $\mathrm{Gr}(2, \mathbb{R}^n)$ has the same homeomorphism type as the combinatorial Grassmannian $\|\mbox{MacP}(2,n)\|$, while Babson proved that the spaces $\mathrm{Gr}(2,\mathbb{R}^n)$ and…
We suggest a general framework for compactifing quasi-projective Lagrangian fibrations of geometric origin by holomorphic symplectic varieties. This framework includes a compactification criterion, which we then apply to various fibrations…
We construct a compactification of the moduli spaces of abelian differentials on Riemann surfaces with prescribed zeroes and poles. This compactification, called the moduli space of multi-scale differentials, is a complex orbifold with…
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…
We define a new family of spectral invariants associated to certain Lagrangian links in compact and connected surfaces of any genus. We show that our invariants recover the Calabi invariant of Hamiltonians in their limit. As applications,…
We consider Kapranov's Chow quotient compactification of the moduli space of ordered n-tuples of hyperplanes in P^{r-1} in linear general position. For r=2 this is canonically identified with the Grothendieck-Knudsen compactification of…
In the first part of the present series of papers, we studied the moduli spaces of holomorphic discs and strips into an open symplectic manifold, isomorphic to the complement of a smooth divisor in a closed symplectic manifold. In…
We define the wonderful compactification of an arrangement of subvarieties. Given a complex nonsingular algebraic variety $Y$ and certain collection $\mathcal{G}$ of subvarieties of $Y$, the wonderful compactification $Y_\mathcal{G}$ can be…
We show that homologically projectively dual varieties for Grassmannians Gr(2,6) and Gr(2,7) are given by certain noncommutative resolutions of singularities of the corresponding Pfaffian varieties. As an application we describe the derived…
