We develop an algebraic version of Cartan method of equivalence or an analog of Tanaka prolongation for the (extrinsic) geometry of curves of flags of a vector space $W$ with respect to the action of a subgroup $G$ of the $GL(W)$. Under…
Let X(G) denote the flag complex of a graph G=(V,E) on n vertices. We study relations between the first eigenvalues of successive higher Laplacians of X(G). One consequence is the following result: Let \lambda_2(G) denote the second…
Matrix Schubert varieties are certain varieties in the affine space of square matrices which are determined by specifying rank conditions on submatrices. We study these varieties for generic matrices, symmetric matrices, and upper…
This article proves, in the case of split groups over arbitrary fields, that all fibers of convolution morphisms attached to parahoric affine flag varieties are paved by products of affine lines and affine lines minus a point. This applies…
Geometrical properties of holonomic and non holonomic varieties defined by the Pfaff equations connected with a first order systems of differential equations are studied. The Riemann extensions of affine connected spaces for investigation…

A nonlinear flag is a finite sequence of nested closed submanifolds. We study the geometry of Frechet manifolds of nonlinear flags, in this way generalizing the nonlinear Grassmannians. As an application we describe a class of coadjoint…
In this work we extend some previously known results on the automorphism group of Schubert varieties. We consider the Schubert conditions which define a Schubert variety. An automorphism of the Grassmannian fixes a Schubert variety…
Springer fibers are subvarieties of the flag variety parametrized by partitions; they are central objects of study in geometric representation theory. Schubert varieties are subvarieties of the flag variety that induce a well-known basis…
The aim of this paper is to study the behavior of Hodge-theoretic (intersection homology) genera and their associated characteristic classes under proper morphisms of complex algebraic varieties. We obtain formulae that relate (parametrized…
We give a unified method for the general equivalence problem of extrinsic geometry, on the basis of our formulation of a general extrinsic geometry as that of an osculating map $\varphi\colon (M,\mathfrak f) \to L/L^0 \subset…
We show that the Hilbert space with basis indexed by infinite permutations and the cohomology ring of the infinite flag variety can be seen as representations of the Heisenberg algebra, which are isomorphic using the back-stable Schubert…
The quantum groups of finite and affine type $A$ admit geometric realizations in terms of partial flag varieties of finite and affine type $A$. Recently, the quantum group associated to partial flag varieties of finite type $B/C$ is shown…
Let $V$ be a $K$-vector space of dimension $n+1$. In this paper, we focus our attention into the existence of irreducible homogeneous Ulrich bundles on flag manifolds $\FF(p, q,n)$ which parameterizes all chains of linear subspaces $L_{p}…
We study the index of symmetry of a compact generalized flag manifold M=G/H endowed with an invariant Kaehler structure. When the group G is simple we show that the leaves of symmetry are irreducible Hermitian symmetric spaces and we…
Hessenberg decomposition is the basic tool used in computational linear algebra to approximate the eigenvalues of a matrix. In this article, we generalize Hessenberg decomposition to continuous matrix fields over topological spaces. This…
The conjugacy classes of nilpotent $n\times n$ matrices can be parametrised by partitions $\lambda$ of $n$, and for a nilpotent $\eta$ in the class parametrised by $\lambda$, the variety $F_\eta$ of $\eta$-stable flags has its irreducible…
