Let X \subset Proj(V) be a projective spherical G-variety, where V is a finite dimensional G-module and G = SP(2n, C). In this paper, we show that X can be deformed, by a flat deformation, to the toric variety corresponding to a convex…
We study the combinatorics of Gr\"obner degenerations of Grassmannians and the Schubert varieties inside them. We provide a family of binomial ideals whose combinatorics is governed by tableaux induced by matching fields in the sense of…
We show that a weight variety, which is a quotient of a flag variety by the maximal torus, admits a flat degeneration to a toric variety. In particular, we show that the moduli spaces of spatial polygons degenerate to polarized toric…
Our first result realizes the toric variety of every marked chain-order polytope (MCOP) of the Gelfand--Tsetlin poset as an explicit Gr\"obner (sagbi) degeneration of the flag variety. This generalizes the…
We study toric degenerations arising from Gr\"obner degenerations or the tropicalization of partial flag varieties. We produce a new family of toric degenerations of partial flag varieties whose combinatorics are governed by matching fields…
We study toric degenerations of semi-infinite Grassmannians (a.k.a. quantum Grassmannians). While the toric degenerations of the classical Grassmannians are well studied, the only known example in the semi-infinite case is due to…
We study the algebraic combinatorics of monomial degenerations of Pl\"ucker forms which is governed by matching fields in the sense of Sturmfels and Zelevinsky. We provide a necessary condition for a matching field to yield a Khovanskii…
In this note we give a brief review of the construction of a toric variety $\mathcal{V}$ coming from a genus $g \geq 2$ Riemann surface $\Sigma^g$ equipped with a trinion, or pair of pants, decomposition. This was outlined by J. Hurtubise…
Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible complex algebraic variety of dimension $n$ and $L$ a very ample line bundle on $X$. Given a toric degeneration of $(X,L)$ satisfying some natural technical hypotheses, we construct a deformation $\{J_s\}$ of…
This note constructs the flat toric degeneration of the manifold FL_n of flags in C^n from [Gonciulea-Lakshmibai 96] as an explicit GIT quotient of the Gr"obner degeneration in [Knutson-Miller 03]. This implies that Schubert varieties…
We construct an explicit, embedded degeneration of the general torus orbit closure in the maximal orthogonal Grassmannian OG(n,2n+1) into a union of Richardson varieties. In particular, we deduce a formula for the cohomology class of the…
We introduce a new combinatorial structure of linked tableaux, which generalize the semi-standard tableaux that index a SAGBI basis of the Pl\"ucker coordinate ring of a flag variety. We show that linked tableaux index Domokos-Zubkov…
A toric variety is a normal complex variety which is completely described by combinatorial data, namely by a fan of strongly convex rational (with respect to a lattice) cones. Due to this rationality condition, toric varieties are…
We present families of tableaux which interpolate between the classical semi-standard Young tableaux and matching field tableaux. Algebraically, this corresponds to SAGBI bases of Pl\"ucker algebras. We show that each such family of…
For an affine, toric Q-Gorenstein variety Y (given by a lattice polytope Q) the vector space T^1 of infinitesimal deformations is related to the complexified vector spaces of rational Minkowski summands of faces of Q. Moreover, assuming Y…
Given a toric degeneration (a degeneration to a toric variety), over the complex numbers, we construct a surjective continuous map from a general fiber to the special fiber of the degeneration in the classical topology. The construction is…
Using Deodhar's decomposition of a double Schubert cell, we study the regular representations of finite groups of Lie type arising in the cohomology of Deligne-Lusztig varieties associated to tori. We deduce that the Deligne-Lusztig…
Block diagonal matching field has many previous works. In general, a coherent matching field induces a monomial order to Pl\"{u}cker algebra, and block diagonal matching fields are a kind of coherent matching fields. In the present paper,…
In this survey I summarize the constructions of toric degenerations obtained from valuations and Gr\"obner theory and describe in which sense they are equivalent. I show how adapted bases can be used to generalize the classical Newton…
Our main goal is to show that the Gelfand--Tsetlin toric degeneration of the type A flag variety can be obtained within a degenerate representation-theoretic framework similar to the theory of PBW degenerations. In fact, we provide such…
