Given a point-line geometry P and a pappian projective space S,a veronesean embedding of P in S is an injective map e from the point-set of P to the set of points of S mapping the lines of P onto non-singular conics of S and such that e(P)…

We establish that every embedding of a Grassmann graph in a polar Grassmann graph can be reduced to an embedding in a Grassmann graph or to an embedding in the collinearity graph of a polar space. Also, we consider $3$-embeddings, i.e.…

We describe isometric embeddings of polar Grassmann graphs formed by non-maximal singular subspaces. In almost all cases, they are induced by collinearity preserving injections of polar spaces. As a simple consequence of this result, we get…

Let $\Pi$ be a polar space of type $\textsf{D}_{n}$. Denote by ${\mathcal G}_{\delta}(\Pi)$, $\delta\in \{+,-\}$ the associated half-spin Grassmannians and write $\Gamma_{\delta}(\Pi)$ for the corresponding half-spin Grassmann graphs. In…

We investigate special points on the Grassmannian which correspond to friezes with coefficients in the case of rank two. Using representations of arithmetic matroids we obtain a theorem on subpolygons of specializations of the coordinate…

Let $B$ be a ring, not necessarily commutative, having an involution $*$ and let ${\mathrm U}_{2m}(B)$ be the unitary group of rank $2m$ associated to a hermitian or skew hermitian form relative to $*$. When $B$ is finite, we construct a…

The degree of the Grassmannian with respect to the Pl\"ucker embedding is well-known. However, the Pl\"ucker embedding, while ubiquitous in pure mathematics, is almost never used in applied mathematics. In applied mathematics, the…

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…

We prove that the m-generated Grassmann algebra can be embedded into a 2^{m-1}x2^{m-1} matrix algebra over a factor of a commutative polynomial algebra in m indeterminates. Cayley-Hamilton and standard identities for nxn matrices over the…

Every compact symmetric space $M$ admits a dual noncompact symmetric space $\check{M}$. When $M$ is a generalized Grassmannian, we can view $\check{M}$ as a open submanifold of it consisting of space-like subspaces \cite{HL}. Motivated from…

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,…

In this short note, completing a sequence of studies by Cooperstein, Kasikova and Shult, we consider the k-Grassmannians of a number of polar geometries of finite rank n. We classify those subspaces that are isomorphic to the j-Grassmannian…

We consider a priori estimates of Weyl's embedding problem of $(\mathbb{S}^2, g)$ in general $3$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(N^3, \bar g)$. We establish interior $C^2$ estimate under natural geometric assumption. Together with a…

This book is dedicated to Grassmannians associated with buildings of classical types: usual, polar, and half-spin Grassmannians. Grassmannians of vector spaces and Grassmannians consisting of totally isotropic subspaces of non-degenerate…

In this paper we compute the generating rank of $k$-polar Grassmannians defined over commutative division rings. Among the new results, we compute the generating rank of $k$-Grassmannians arising from Hermitian forms of Witt index $n$…

The present article studies holomorphic isometric embeddings of arbitrary complex Grassmannians into quadrics, generalising results in [13]. The moduli spaces of these embeddings up to gauge and image equivalence are discussed using a…

We obtain a combinatorial expression for the coefficients of the boundary map of real isotropic and odd orthogonal Grassmannians providing a natural generalization of the formulas already obtained for Lagrangian and maximal isotropic…

It is shown that the fermionic Heisenberg-Weyl algebra with 2N=D fermionic generators is equivalent to the generalized Grassmann algebra with two fractional generators. The 2,3 and 4 dimensional Heisenberg - Weyl algebra is explicitly given…

We show that the transformations of Grassmannians (of complex Hilbert spaces) induced by linear or conjugate-linear isometries can be characterized as transformations preserving some of principal angles (corresponding to the orthogonality,…

By a grassmannian we understand a usual complex grassmannian or possibly an orthogonal or symplectic grassmannian. We classify, with few exceptions, linear embeddings of grassmannians into larger grassmannians, where the linearity…
