We show that the smooth horizontal Schubert subvarieties of a rational homogeneous variety $G/P$ are homogeneously embedded cominuscule $G'/P'$, and are classified by subdiagrams of a Dynkin diagram. This generalizes the classification of…

Let $ G = \mathbb{Z}/r\mathbb{Z}$ be the cyclic group of order $r$, and let $\varpi = e^{2\pi i / r}$ denote a primitive $r$ th root of unity. Consider the action of $G$ on $\mathbb{C}^n$ via the embedding $$ \varphi : G \hookrightarrow…

We define $\Gamma_q(B,S \otimes H)$, the generalized $q$-gaussian von Neumann algebras associated to a sequence of symmetric independent copies $(\pi_j,B,A,D)$ and to a subset $1 \in S = S^* \subset A$ and, under certain assumptions, prove…

We prove new formulas and congruences for $p(n,k):=$ the number of partitions of $n$ into $k$ parts and $q(n,k):=$ the number of partitions of $n$ into $k$ distinct parts. Also, we give lower and upper bounds for the density of the set…

The regular \Z^r-covers of a finite cell complex X are parameterized by the Grassmannian of r-planes in H^1(X,\Q). Moving about this variety, and recording when the Betti numbers b_1,..., b_i of the corresponding covers are finite carves…

Let X be a Mumford-Tate variety, i.e., a quotient of a Mumford-Tate domain D by a discrete subgroup. Mumford-Tate varieties are generalizations of Shimura varieties. We define the notion of a special subvariety Y in X (of Shimura type), and…

Given integers r>1, n>1 and q> n-2, we consider projective varieties X of dimension r+1 such that through n generic points of X passes a rational curve of degree q, contained in X. More precisely, we study the class X_{r+1,n}(q) of such…

We calculate using Macaulay 2 the multiplicities of the most singular point on Schubert varieties on Gl(n)/B for $n=5,6$. The method of computation is described and tables of the results are included.

We prove the congruence relation for the mod-p reduction of Shimura varieties associated to a unitary similitude group GU(n-1,1), when p is inert and n odd. When n is even, this result was obtained by T. Wedhorn and O. B\"ultel using the…

We prove that all mod $p^m$ singular forms of level $N$, degree $n+r$, and $p$-rank $r$ with $n\ge r$ are congruent mod $p^m$ to linear combinations of theta series of degree $r$ attached to quadratic forms of some level. Moreover, we prove…

Let $Q$ be a quiver of extended Dynkin type $D$. In this first of two papers, we show that the quiver Grassmannian $Gr_e(M)$ has a decomposition into affine spaces for every dimension vector $e$ and every indecomposable representation $M$…

Let $G$ be a simply connected, almost simple group over an algebraically closed field $\mathbf k$, and $P$ a maximal parabolic subgroup corresponding to omitting a cominuscule root. We construct a compactification $\phi:T^*G/P\rightarrow…

We give a closed-form formula for the Hilbert function of the tangent cone at the identity of a Schubert variety X in the Grassmannian in both group theoretic and combinatorial terms. We also give a formula for the multiplicity of X at the…

We show that in type A or C any degenerate flag variety is in fact isomorphic to a Schubert variety in an appropriate partial flag manifold.

We calculate the tangent cones at unity of Schubert varieties for $A_n$, where $n$ is less or equal to four. We state several conjectures for an arbitrary $n$.

For any irreducible non-degenerate variety $X\subset \mathbb{P}^r$, we give a criterion for the $(k,s)$-identifiability of $X$. If $k\leq s-1 <r$, then the $(k,s)$-identifiability holds for $X$ if and only if the $s$-identifiability holds…

We give a short and self-contained proof of the Decomposition Theorem for the non-small resolution of a Special Schubert variety. We also provide an explicit description of the perverse cohomology sheaves. As a by-product of our approach,…

Let $G$ be a complex quasi-simple algebraic group and $G/P$ be a partial flag variety. The projections of Richardson varieties from the full flag variety form a stratification of $G/P$. We show that the closure partial order of projected…

This paper generalizes the results of the paper \cite{mi3} to the case of the general $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ Schubert varieties. We study the homomorphisms between different Schubert varieties, describe their geometry and the group of the line…
