In this article, a combinatorial characterization of the family of parabolic hyperplanes of a hyperbolic (respectively, elliptic) quadric of PG(2n + 1, q), using their intersection properties with the points and subspaces of codimension 2,…
In the paper we characterize subspaces and pencils of lines of generalized (and multidimensional) Laguerre spaces and we consider definability of the structure of "conic" pencils in the Grassmann space of 1-subspaces. We also study…
The Grassmannian space $\Gr$ is the set of all $k-$dimensional subspaces of the vector space~\smash{$\F_q^n$}. Recently, codes in the Grassmannian have found an application in network coding. The main goal of this paper is to present…
Secant varieties of a homogeneously embedded generalised Grassmannian $G/P$ inherit the natural group action, and one can reduce the study of their local geometric properties to $G$-orbit representatives. The case of secant varieties of…
A $k$-polar Grassmannian is the geometry having as pointset the set of all $k$-dimensional subspaces of a vector space $V$ which are totally isotropic for a given non-degenerate bilinear form $\mu$ defined on $V.$ Hence it can be regarded…
We describe the (complex) quaternionic geometry encoded by the embeddings of the Riemann sphere, with nonnegative normal bundles.
Let A(n) be the smooth dual of the p-adic group G=GL(n). We create on A(n) the structure of a complex algebraic variety. There is a morphism of A(n) onto the Bernstein variety Omega G which is injective on each component of A(n). The…
The multi-image variety is a subvariety of Gr(1,P^3)^n that models taking pictures with n rational cameras. We compute its cohomology class in the cohomology of Gr(1,P^3)^n, and from there its multidegree as a subvariety of (P^5)^n under…
Symmetry and antisymmetry are fundamental concepts in many strict sciences. Pairwise comparisons (PC) matrices are fundamental tools for representing pairwise relations in decision making. In this theoretical study, we present a novel…
We present an explicit description of all harmonic maps of finite uniton number from a Riemann surface into a complex Grassmannian. Namely, starting from a constant map $Q$ and a collection of meromorphic functions and their derivatives, we…
We describe all Poisson brackets compatible with the natural cluster algebra structure in the open Schubert cell of the Grassmannian $G_k(n)$ and show that any such bracket endows $G_k(n)$ with a structure of a Poisson homogeneous space…
Let $L$ be a Levi subgroup of $GL_N$ which acts by left multiplication on a Schubert variety $X(w)$ in the Grassmannian $G_{d,N}$. We say that $X(w)$ is a spherical Schubert variety if $X(w)$ is a spherical variety for the action of $L$. In…
We use Donaldson's approximately holomorphic techniques to build embeddings of a closed symplectic manifold with symplectic form of integer class in the grassmannians Gr(r,N). We assure that these embeddings are asymptotically holomorphic…
We introduce a family of tableaux that simultaneously generalizes the tableaux used to characterize Grothendieck polynomials and k-Schur functions. We prove that the polynomials drawn from these tableaux are the affine Grothendieck…
We characterize directs sums of twists of symmetric powers of the universal quotient bundle over the Grassmannian of lines. We use a method that could be used for analogue results on any arbitrary variety, and that should give stronger…
Let $G(k,n)$ be the complex Grassmann manifold of $k$-planes in $\mathbb C^{k+n}$. In this note, we show that for $1<k<n$ and for any selfmap $f:G(k,n)\to G(k,n)$, there exists a $k$-plane $V^k\in G(k,n)$ such that $f(V^k)\cap V^k\ne…
