In tropical algebraic geometry, the solution sets of polynomial equations are piecewise-linear. We introduce the tropical variety of a polynomial ideal, and we identify it with a polyhedral subcomplex of the Grobner fan. The tropical…

Several moduli spaces parametrizing linear subspaces of the projective space are cut out by linear and quadratic equations in their natural embedding: Grassmannians, Flag varieties, and Schubert varieties. The goal of this paper is to prove…

In this paper, we introduce `Pl\"{u}cker weight vector' and establish the definition of a weighted Grassmann orbifold ${\rm Gr}_{\bf b}(k,n)$, corresponding to a Pl\"{u}cker weight vector `${\bf b}$'. We achieve an explicit classification…

We give examples of pairs (G1,G2) where G1 is a Grothendieck category and G2 a full Grothendieck subcategory of G1, the inclusion G2 --> G1 being denoted i, for which R^+i : D^+G2 --> D^+G1 (or even Ri : DG2 --> DG1) is a full embedding.…

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 $Gr(k,n)$ be the Pl\"ucker embedding of the Grassmann variety of projective $k$-planes in $\P n$. For a projective variety $X$, let $\sigma_s(X)$ denote the variety of its $s-1$ secant planes. More precisely, $\sigma_s(X)$ denotes the…

The positive Grassmannian $Gr_{k,n}^{\geq 0}$ is the subset of the real Grassmannian where all Pl\"ucker coordinates are nonnegative. It has a beautiful combinatorial structure as well as connections to statistical physics, integrable…

An embedding of a point-line geometry \Gamma is usually defined as an injective mapping \epsilon from the point-set of \Gamma to the set of points of a projective space such that \epsilon(l) is a projective line for every line l of \Gamma,…

We show that points in specific degree 2 hypersurfaces in the Grassmannian $Gr(3, n)$ correspond to generic arrangements of $n$ hyperplanes in $\mathbb{C}^3$ with associated discriminantal arrangement having intersections of multiplicity…

We consider the Grassman manifold $G(E)$ as the subset of all orthogonal projections of a given Euclidean space $E$ and obtain some explicit formulas concerning the differential geometry of $G(E)$ as a submanifold of $L(E,E)$ endowed with…

We compute the degree of the generalized Pl\"ucker embedding $\kappa$ of a Quot scheme $X$ over $\PP^1$. The space $X$ can also be considered as a compactification of the space of algebraic maps of a fixed degree from $\PP^1$ to the…

We classify rigid Schubert classes in orthogonal Grassmannians. More generally, given a representative $X$ of a Schubert class in an orthogonal Grassmannian, we give combinatorial conditions which guarantee that every linear space…

Given a quadratic two-parameter matrix polynomial in Newton basis $Q_{N} (\lambda ,\mu)$, we construct a vector space of linear two-parameter matrix polynomials and identify a set of linearizations which lie in the vector space. We also…

For a planar directed graph G, Postnikov's boundary measurement map sends positive weight functions on the edges of G onto the appropriate totally nonnegative Grassmann cell. We establish an explicit formula for Postnikov's map by…

We propose an explicit construction of a weighted generalised Grassmannian. For a weighted Grassmannian (i.e., for series A) we obtain an effective parametrisation of possible $\mathbb{Z}$-gradings on Pl\"{u}cker coordinates, and provide…

We study algebraic geometry linear codes defined by linear sections of the Grassmannian variety as codes associated to FFN$(1,q)$-projective varieties. As a consequence, we show that Schubert, Lagrangian-Grassmannian, and isotropic…

In this paper we discuss the dimensions of the (higher) secant varieties to the Grassmann varieties, embedded via the Plucker embeddings. We use Terracini's Lemma and the duality in the exterior algebra of a finite dimensional vector space…

This paper investigates property QR(3) for Veronese embeddings over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $3$. We determine the rank index of $(\mathbb{P}^n , \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^n} (d))$ for all $n \geq 2$, $d \geq 3$,…

This work is motivated by the relation between the KP and BKP integrable hierarchies, whose $\tau$-functions may be viewed as sections of dual determinantal and Pfaffian line bundles over infinite dimensional Grassmannians. In finite…
