An intrinsic quadric is a normal projective variety with a Cox ring defined by a single quadratic relation. We provide explicit descriptions of these varieties in the smooth case for small Picard numbers. As applications, we figure out in…
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…
Let X be a subvariety of $P^n$ defined by equations of degrees $ d =(d_1,...,d_s)$, over an algebraically closed field k of any characteristic. We study properties of the Fano scheme $F_r(X)$ that parametrizes linear subspaces of dimension…
The affine Grassmannian of $SL_n$ admits an embedding into the Sato Grassmannian, which further admits a Pl\"ucker embedding into the projectivization of Fermion Fock space. Kreiman, Lakshmibai, Magyar, and Weyman describe the linear part…
Every Grassmannian, in its Pl\"ucker embedding, is defined by quadratic polynomials. We prove a vast, qualitative, generalisation of this fact to what we call Pl\"ucker varieties. A Pl\"ucker variety is in fact a family of varieties in…
We consider ind-varieties obtained as direct limits of chains of embeddings $X_1\stackrel{\phi_1}{\hookrightarrow}\dots\stackrel{\phi_{m-1}}{\hookrightarrow}…
Mukai proved that most prime Fano fourfolds of degree 10 and index 2 are contained in a Grassmannian G(2,5). They are all unirational and some are rational, as remarked by Roth in 1949. We show that their middle cohomology is of K3 type and…
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…
Let $X$ be a Fano manifold which is the zero scheme of a general global section $s$ in an irreducible homogenous vector bundle over a Grassmannian. We prove that the restriction of the Pl\"ucker embedding embeds $X$ projectively normal, and…
General linear sections of codimension 2 of the Grassmannians G(1,4) and G(1,5) appear in the classification of Fano manifolds of high index. Unlike Grassmannians, these manifolds are not homogeneous. Nevertheless, their automorphisms…
We classify when the blowup of a complex Grassmannian $G(k, n)$ along a smooth Schubert subvariety $Z$ is Fano. We compute almost all the two-point, genus zero Gromov-Witten invariants of the blowup when $Z=G(k, n-1)$. We further prove a…
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…
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…
For an arbitrary field of any characteristic we give an explicit description, in terms of Pl\"ucker coordinates, of the projective linear space that cuts out the Lagrangian-Grassmannian variety $L(n,2n)$ of maximal isotropic subspaces in a…
We resolve a conjecture about a class of binomial initial ideals of $I_{2,n}$, the ideal of the Grassmannian, Gr$(2,\mathbb{C}^n$), which are associated to phylogenetic trees. For a weight vector $\omega$ in the tropical Grassmannian,…
For each $n$, each dimension $r$, and each subscheme $X \subset \mathbb{P}^n$ defined as the common zero-locus of $s$ hypersurfaces, of degrees $\mathbf{d} = (d_1, \ldots , d_s)$ say, the Fano variety $F_r(X)$ of projective $r$-spaces…
The bisymplectic Grassmannian I$_2$Gr$(k, V)$ parametrizes k-dimensional subspaces of a vector space V which are isotropic with respect to two general skew-symmetric forms; it is a Fano variety which admits an action of a torus with a…
The classification of toric Fano manifolds with large Picard number corresponds to the classification of smooth Fano polytopes with large number of vertices. A smooth Fano polytope is a polytope that contains the origin in its interior such…
We obtain a combinatorial description of Gorenstein spherical Fano varieties in terms of certain polytopes, generalizing the combinatorial description of Gorenstein toric Fano varieties by reflexive polytopes and its extension to Gorenstein…
Let $X$ be a complex smooth Fano variety of dimension $n$. In this paper, we give a classification of such $X$ when the pseudoindex is equal to $\dfrac{\dim X+1}{2}$ and the Picard number greater than one.
