Let X be a normal projective Q-Gorenstein variety with at worst log-terminal singularities. We prove a formula expressing the total stringy Chern class of a generic complete intersection in X via the total stringy Chern class of X. This…
We generalize our puzzle formula for ordinary Schubert calculus on Grassmannians, to a formula for the T-equivariant Schubert calculus. The structure constants to be calculated are polynomials in {y_{i+1} - y_i}; they were shown…
The Waldhausen construction of Mayer-Vietoris splittings of chain complexes over an injective generalized free product of group rings is extended to a combinatorial construction of Seifert-van Kampen splittings of CW complexes with…
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…
We show that (equivariant) K-theoretic 3-point Gromov-Witten invariants of genus zero on a Grassmann variety are equal to triple intersections computed in the ordinary (equivariant) K-theory of a two-step flag manifold, thus generalizing an…
We give a nonrecursive, combinatorial characterization of multiplicity-free products of Grassmannian Schubert classes. This answers a question of W. Fulton and extends results of J. Stembridge.
We give a combinatorial characterization of Fulton's operational Chow cohomology groups of a complete , $\Q$-factorial, rational T-variety of complexity one in terms of so called generalized Minkowsky weights in the contraction-free case.…
We generalize the Chern class relation for the transversal intersection of two nonsingular varieties to a relation for possibly singular varieties, under a 'splayedness' assumption. The relation is shown to hold for both the…
This chapter combines an introduction and research survey about Schubert varieties. The theme is to combinatorially classify their singularities using a family of polynomial ideals generated by determinants.
We study intersection theory and Chern classes of reflexive sheaves on normal varieties. In particular, we define generalization of Mumford's intersection theory on normal surfaces to higher dimensions. We also define and study the second…
The ({\em classical}, {\em small quantum}, {\em equivariant}) cohomology ring of the grassmannian $G(k,n)$ is generated by certain derivations operating on an exterior algebra of a free module of rank $n$ ({\em Schubert Calculus on a…
We study properties of rational curves on complete intersections in positive characteristic. It has long been known that in characteristic 0, smooth Calabi-Yau and general type varieties are not uniruled. In positive characteristic,…
We examine the tangent groups at the identity, and more generally the formal completions at the identity, of the Chow groups of algebraic cycles on a nonsingular quasiprojective algebraic variety over a field of characteristic zero. We…
We prove the Mirkovi\'c-Vilonen conjecture: the integral local intersection cohomology groups of spherical Schubert varieties on the affine Grassmannian have no p-torsion, as long as p is outside a certain small and explicitly given set of…
Let $\ell, n$ be positive integers such that $\ell\geq n$. Let $\mathbb{G}_{n,\ell}$ be the Grassmannian which consists of the set of $n$-dimensional subspaces of $\mathbb{C}^{\ell}$. There is a $\mathbb{Z}$-graded algebra isomorphism…
We introduce in this note the notion of the category of twisted Chow-Witt correspondences $CHW(k)$ over a field $k$ of characteristic different from $2$. Moreover, we show that over an infinite perfect field this category $CHW(k)$ admits a…
In this paper, an intersection theory for generic differential polynomials is presented. The intersection of an irreducible differential variety of dimension $d$ and order $h$ with a generic differential hypersurface of order $s$ is shown…
We establish a general computational scheme designed for a systematic computation of characteristic classes of singular complex algebraic varieties that satisfy a Gysin axiom in a transverse setup. This scheme is explicitly geometric and of…
