We describe the torus-equivariant cohomology of weighted partial flag orbifolds ${\mathrm{w}}\Sigma$ of type $A$. We establish counterparts of several results known for the partial flag variety that collectively constitute what we refer to…
We give a short, geometric proof of Graham's theorem on positivity in the equivariant cohomology of a flag variety, based on a transversality argument.
We aim in this manuscript to describe a specific notion of geometric positivity that manifests in cohomology rings associated to the flag variety $G/B$ and, in some cases, to subvarieties of $G/B$. We offer an exposition on the the…
We prove a conjecture of Dale Peterson on positivity in the multiplication in the T-equivariant cohomology of the flag variety. The theorem follows from a more general positivity result about the equivariant cohomology of varieties with…
We study the action of the Chevalley involution of a simple complex Lie group G on the set of its weight varieties (i.e. torus quotients of its flag manifolds). We find for torus quotients of Grassmannians (for GL(n)) that we obtain the…
We give a Pieri rule for the torus-equivariant cohomology of (submaximal) Grassmannians of Lie types B, C, and D. To the authors' best knowledge, our rule is the first manifestly positive formula, beyond the equivariant Chevalley formula.…
In this paper, we study the T_w-equivariant cohomology of the weighted Grassmannians wGr(d,n) introduced by Corti-Reid where T_w is the n-dimensional torus that naturally acts on wGr(d,n). We introduce the equivariant weighted Schubert…
Using a transversality argument, we demonstrate the positivity of certain coefficients in the equivariant cohomology and K-theory of a generalized flag manifold. This strengthens earlier equivariant positivity theorems (of Graham and…
We prove a positivity result for the T-equivariant K-theory of flag varieties associated to any symmetrizable Kac-Moody group.
Let $T$ be a compact torus and $(M,\omega)$ a Hamiltonian $T$-space. We give a new proof of the $K$-theoretic analogue of the Kirwan surjectivity theorem in symplectic geometry by using the equivariant version of the Kirwan map introduced…
In 1998, Goresky, Kottwitz, and MacPherson showed that for certain projective varieties X equipped with an algebraic action of a complex torus T, the equivariant cohomology ring H_T(X) can be described by combinatorial data obtained from…
The Peterson variety is a subvariety of the flag manifold $G/B$ equipped with an action of a one-dimensional torus, and a torus invariant paving by affine cells, called Peterson cells. We prove that the equivariant pull-backs of Schubert…
We use the formal affine Demazure algebra to construct an explicit Leray-Hirsch Theorem for torus equivariant oriented cohomology of flag varieties. We then generalize the Borel model of such theory to partial flag varieties.
We give a combinatorial Chevalley formula for an arbitrary weight, in the torus-equivariant K-theory of semi-infinite flag manifolds, which is expressed in terms of the quantum alcove model. As an application, we prove the Chevalley formula…
We prove some general results on the T-equivariant K-theory K_T(G/P) of the flag variety G/P, where G is a semisimple complex algebraic group, P is a parabolic subgroup and T$ is a maximal torus contained in P. In particular, we make a…
We prove that if X is a Grassmannian of type A, then the Schubert basis of the (small) quantum cohomology ring QH(X) is the only homogeneous deformation of the Schubert basis of the ordinary cohomology ring of X that multiplies with…
In this paper, we prove that the Chow ring and augmented Chow ring of a matroid are equivariantly $\gamma$-positive under the action of any group of automorphisms. Our approach provides an explicit combinatorial interpretation of the…
Peterson varieties are a special class of Hessenberg varieties that have been extensively studied e.g. by Peterson, Kostant, and Rietsch, in connection with the quantum cohomology of the flag variety. In this manuscript, we develop a…

We study Grothedieck groups of triangulated categories using weight structures, weight complexes, and the corresponding pure (co)homological functors. We prove some general statements on $K_0$ of weighted categories and apply it to…
