The determinantal variety $\Sigma_{pq}$ is defined to be the set of all $p\times q$ real matrices with $p\geq q$ whose ranks are strictly smaller than $q$. It is proved that $\Sigma_{pq}$ is a minimal cone in $\mathbb R^{pq}$ and all its…
We realise the Bott-Samelson resolutions of type A Schubert varieties as quiver Grassmannians. In order to explicitly describe this isomorphism, we introduce the notion of a \textit{geometrically compatible} decomposition for any…
We introduce a notion of stable spherical variety which includes the spherical varieties under a reductive group $G$ and their flat equivariant degenerations. Given any projective space $\bP$ where $G$ acts linearly, we construct a moduli…
We study the defocusing nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation on noncompact metric graphs under general self-adjoint vertex conditions ensuring the existence of a negative eigenvalue of the Hamiltonian operator. First, we focus on the existence…
A regular nilpotent Hessenberg Schubert cell is the intersection of a regular nilpotent Hessenberg variety with a Schubert cell. In this paper, we describe a set of minimal generators of the defining ideal of a regular nilpotent Hessenberg…
Let X be a minuscule Schubert variety and $\alpha$ a class of 1-cycle on X. In this article we describe the irreducible components of the scheme of morphisms of class $\alpha$ from a rational curve to X. The irreducible components are…
Several important properties of positive semidefinite processes of Ornstein--Uhlenbeck type are analysed. It is shown that linear operators of the form $X\mapsto AX+XA^{\mathrm{T}}$ with $A\in M_d(\mathbb{R})$ are the only ones that can be…
It is well-known that a minimal graph of codimension one is stable, i.e. the second variation of the area functional is non-negative. This is no longer true for higher codimensional minimal graphs. In this note, we prove that a minimal…
Let X be an irreducible 2n-dimensional holomorphic symplectic manifold. A reflexive sheaf F is very modular, if its Azumaya algebra End(F) deforms with X to every Kahler deformation of X. We show that if F is a slope-stable reflexive sheaf…
We give a simple necessary and sufficient condition for a Schubert variety $X_w$ to be smooth when $w$ is a freely braided element of a simply laced Weyl group; such elements were introduced by the authors in a previous work…
We prove that the abundance conjecture holds on a variety $X$ with mild singularities if $X$ has many reflexive differential forms with coefficients in pluricanonical bundles, assuming the Minimal Model Program in lower dimensions. This…
We provide a method for gluing (small) resolutions of singularities of Schubert varieties \(X_w\). An explicit isomorphism of \(X_w\) with an (iterated) bundle is constructed when \(w\) has an (iterated) BP decomposition. Combined with the…
We consider a certain class of Schubert varieties of the affine Grassmannian of type A. By embedding a Schubert variety into a finite-dimensional Grassmannian, we construct an explicit basis of sections of the basic line bundle by…
Variational principles in mechanics, field theory and geometric analysis are usually formulated on closed admissible classes, where boundary variations are either fixed or independently cancelled through natural boundary conditions.…
We calculate the first and the second variation formula for the sub-Riemannian area in three dimensional pseudo-hermitian manifolds. We consider general variations that can move the singular set of a C^2 surface and non-singular variation…
In this paper, for any simple, simply connected algebraic group $G$ of type $B_n,C_n$ or $D_n$ and for any maximal parabolic subgroup $P$ of $G$, we describe all minimal dimensional Schubert varieties in $G/P$ admitting semistable points…
We show that, for a fixed order $\gamma\geq 1$, each local minimizer of a rather general nonsmooth optimization problem in Euclidean spaces is either M-stationary in the classical sense (corresponding to stationarity of order $1$),…
Consider a family f:A --> U of g-dimensional abelian varieties over a quasiprojective manifold U. Suppose that the induced map from U to the moduli scheme of polarized abelian varieties is generically finite and that there is a projective…
We show that regular semisimple Hessenberg varieties can have moduli. To be precise, suppose $X$ is a regular semisimple Hessenberg variety of codimension $1$ in the flag variety $G/B$, where $G$ is a simple algebraic group of rank $r$ over…
A \emph{Hessenberg Schubert variety} is an irreducible component of the intersection of a Schubert variety and a Hessenberg variety, defined as the closure of a Schubert cell intersected with the Hessenberg variety. We consider the…
