Closure ordering and the Kostant-Sekiguchi correspondence

Let be a real semisimple Lie group with Lie algebra . The Kostant-Sekiguchi correspondence is a bijection between nilpotent orbits on and nilpotent orbits on . In this note we prove that the closure relations among nilpotent orbits are preserved under the Kostant-Sekiguchi correspondence. The techniques rely on work of M. Vergne and P. Kronheimer.

     

On orbit closures of spherical subgroups in flag varieties

Let be the flag variety of a complex semi-simple group G, let H be an algebraic subgroup of G acting on with finitely many orbits, and let V be an H-orbit closure in . Expanding the cohomology class of V in the basis of Schubert classes defines a union V₀ of Schubert varieties in with positive multiplicities. If G is simply-laced, we show that these multiplicities are equal to the same power of 2. For arbitrary G, we show that V₀ is connected in codimension 1. If moreover all multiplicities are 1, we show that the singularities of V are rational and we construct a flat degeneration of V to V₀ in . Thus, for any effective line bundle L on , the restriction map is surjective, and for all . Received: April 17, 2000     

Recognizing Schubert Cells

We address the problem of distinguishing between different Schubert cells using vanishing patterns of generalized Plücker coordinates.     

Local properties of Richardson varieties in the Grassmannian via a bounded Robinson-Schensted-Knuth correspondence

The Richardson variety X _α ^γ in the Grassmannian is defined to be the intersection of the Schubert variety X ^γ and opposite Schubert variety X _α . We give an explicit Gröbner basis for the ideal of the tangent cone at any T-fixed point of X _α ^γ , thus generalizing a result of Kodiyalam-Raghavan (J. Algebra 270(1):28–54, 2003) and Kreiman-Lakshmibai (Algebra, Arithmetic and Geometry with Applications, 2004). Our proof is based on a generalization of the Robinson-Schensted-Knuth (RSK) correspondence, which we call the bounded RSK (BRSK). We use the Gröbner basis result to deduce a formula which computes the multiplicity of X _α ^γ at any T-fixed point by counting families of nonintersecting lattice paths, thus generalizing a result first proved by Krattenthaler (Sém. Lothar. Comb. 45:B45c, 2000/2001; J. Algebr. Comb. 22:273–288, 2005).     

A note on the fundamental group of Finsler manifolds with nonnegative flag curvature

In this note we prove that the fundamental group of any forward complete Finsler manifold with nonnegative flag curvature is finitely generated provided the line integral of T-curvature is small. In particular, the fundamental group of any forward complete Berwald manifold with nonnegative flag curvature is finitely generated.     

Bruhat order, smooth Schubert varieties, and hyperplane arrangements

The aim of this article is to link Schubert varieties in the flag manifold with hyperplane arrangements. For a permutation, we construct a certain graphical hyperplane arrangement. We show that the generating function for regions of this arrangement coincides with the Poincaré polynomial of the corresponding Schubert variety if and only if the Schubert variety is smooth. We give an explicit combinatorial formula for the Poincaré polynomial. Our main technical tools are chordal graphs and perfect elimination orderings.     

Affine Hecke algebras and the Schubert calculus

Using a combinatorial approach that avoids geometry, this paper studies the structure of K_T(G/B), the T-equivariant K-theory of the generalized flag variety G/B. This ring has a natural basis (the double Grothendieck polynomials), where is the structure sheaf of the Schubert variety X_w. For rank two cases we compute the corresponding structure constants of the ring K_T(G/B) and, based on this data, make a positivity conjecture for general G which generalizes the theorems of M. Brion (for K(G/B)) and W. Graham (for H_T^*(G/B)). Let [X^λ]K_T(G/B) be the class of the homogeneous line bundle on G/B corresponding to the character of T indexed by λ. For general G we prove “Pieri–Chevalley formulas” for the products , , , and , where λ is dominant. By using the Chern character and comparing lowest degree terms the products which are computed in this paper also give results for the Grothendieck polynomials, double Schubert polynomials, and ordinary Schubert polynomials in, respectively K(G/B), H_T^*(G/B) and H^*(G/B).     

Chains in the Bruhat order

We study a family of polynomials whose values express degrees of Schubert varieties in the generalized complex flag manifold G/B. The polynomials are given by weighted sums over saturated chains in the Bruhat order. We derive several explicit formulas for these polynomials, and investigate their relations with Schubert polynomials, harmonic polynomials, Demazure characters, and generalized Littlewood-Richardson coefficients. In the second half of the paper, we study the classical flag manifold and discuss related combinatorial objects: flagged Schur polynomials, 312-avoiding permutations, generalized Gelfand-Tsetlin polytopes, the inverse Schubert-Kostka matrix, parking functions, and binary trees.

Finiteness of polyhedral decompositions of cusped hyperbolic manifolds obtained by the Epstein-Penner's method

Epstein and Penner give a canonical method of decomposing a cusped hyperbolic manifold into ideal polyhedra. The decomposition depends on arbitrarily specified weights for the cusps. From the construction, it is rather obvious that there appear at most a finite number of decompositions if the given weights are slightly changed. However, since the space of weights is not compact, it is not clear whether the total number of such decompositions is finite. In this paper we prove that the number of polyhedral decompositions of a cusped hyperbolic manifold obtained by the Epstein-Penner's method is finite.

     

Four counterexamples to the Fubini theorem

In this paper we study signed measures. Our main results are as follows: the Fubini theorem is not true in the general case; the Jordan parts of a transition measure are not necessarily transition measures; the operation of taking the Jordan parts does not necessarily commute with multiplying by the initial measure; the product of σ-bounded measures need not be a σ-bounded measure.

On Small World Semiplanes with Generalised Schubert Cells

The well known “real-life examples” of small world graphs, including the graph of binary relation: “two persons on the earth know each other” contains cliques, so they have cycles of order 3 and 4. Some problems of Computer Science require explicit construction of regular algebraic graphs with small diameter but without small cycles. The well known examples here are generalised polygons, which are small world algebraic graphs i.e. graphs with the diameter d≤clog  _k−1(v), where v is order, k is the degree and c is the independent constant, semiplanes (regular bipartite graphs without cycles of order 4); graphs that can be homomorphically mapped onto the ordinary polygons. The problem of the existence of regular graphs satisfying these conditions with the degree ≥k and the diameter ≥d for each pair k≥3 and d≥3 is addressed in the paper. This problem is positively solved via the explicit construction. Generalised Schubert cells are defined in the spirit of Gelfand-Macpherson theorem for the Grassmanian. Constructed graph, induced on the generalised largest Schubert cells, is isomorphic to the well-known Wenger’s graph. We prove that the family of edge-transitive q-regular Wenger graphs of order 2q ⁿ , where integer n≥2 and q is prime power, q≥n, q>2 is a family of small world semiplanes. We observe the applications of some classes of small world graphs without small cycles to Cryptography and Coding Theory.

On the normality of the rings of Schubert varieties

We prove that the cone over a Schubert variety inG/P (P being a maximal parabolic subgroup of classical type) is normal by exhibiting a 2-regular sequence inR(w) (the homogeneous coordinate ring of the Schubert varietyX(w) inG/P under the canonical protective embeddingG/P ⊂→ (p (H° G/P,L)),L being the ample generator of (PicG/P), which vanishes on the singular locus ofX(w). We also prove the surjectivity ofH° (G/Q, L) H° (X(w), L), whereQ is a classical parabolic subgroup (not necessarily maximal) ofG andL is an ample line bundle onG/Q.
