Multiple Flag Varieties of Finite Type

In this paper we prove that the counting polynomials of certain torus orbits in products of partial flag varieties coincides with the Kac polynomials of supernova quivers, which arise in the study of the moduli spaces of certain irregular meromorphic connections on trivial bundles over the projective line. We also prove that these polynomials can be expressed as a specialization of Tutte polynomials of certain graphs providing a combinatorial proof of the non-negativity of th...

We show that each orbit of a Borel subgroup $B_{n-1}$ of GL(n-1) (respectively SO(n-1)) on the flag variety of GL(n) (respectively of SO(n)) is a bundle over a $B_{n-1}$-orbit on a generalized flag variety of GL(n-1) (respectively SO(n-1)), with fiber isomorphic to an orbit of an analogous subgroup on a smaller flag variety. As a consequence, we develop an inductive procedure to classify $B_{n-1}$-orbits on the flag variety. Our method is essentially uniform in the two cases....

Let $G$ be the general linear group of the degree $n\geq 2$ over the field $\mathbb{K}=\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. In this article, we give a description of orbit decomposition of the multiple projective space $G^m/P^m$ under the diagonal action of $G$ where $P$ is the maximal parabolic subgroup of $G$ such that $G/P\cong\mathbb{P}^{n-1}\mathbb{K}$. We also construct representatives of orbits. If $m\geq 4$, the number of orbits is infinite, and we give a description of those...

In the first half of this article, we review the Steinberg theory for double flag varieties for symmetric pairs. For a special case of the symmetric space of type AIII, we will consider $ X = GL_{2n}/P_{(n,n)} \times GL_n / B_n^+ \times GL_n / B_n^- $ on which $ K = GL_n \times GL_n $ acts diagonally. We give a classification of $ K $-orbits in $ X $, and explicit combinatorial description of the Steinberg maps. In the latter half, we develop the theory of embedding of a do...

We give an explicit natural identification between the quiver coefficients of Buch and Fulton, decomposition coefficients for Schubert polynomials, and the Schubert structure constants for flag manifolds. This is also achieved in K-theory where we give a direct argument that the decomposition coefficients have alternating signs, based on a theorem of Brion, which then implies that the quiver coefficients have alternating signs. Our identification shows that known combinatoria...

Extending results of Wyser, we determine formulas for the equivariant cohomology classes of closed orbits of certain families of spherical subgroups of $GL_n$ on the flag variety $GL_n/B$. Putting this together with a slight extension of the results of Can-Joyce-Wyser, we arrive at a family of polynomial identities which show that certain explicit sums of Schubert polynomials factor as products of linear forms.

Our goal is to classify all generically transitive actions of commutative unipotent groups on flag varieties up to conjugation. We establish relationship between this problem and classification of multiplications with certain properties on Lie algebra representations. Then we classify multiplications with the desired properties and solve the initial classification problem.

Consider a partial flag variety $X$ which is not a grassmaninan. Consider also its cohomology ring ${\rm H}^*(X,\ZZ)$ endowed with the base formed by the Poincar\'e dual classes of the Schubert varieties. In \cite{Richmond:recursion}, E. Richmond showed that some coefficient structure of the product in ${\rm H}^*(X,\ZZ)$ are products of two such coefficients for smaller flag varieties. Consider now a quiver without oriented cycle. If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ denote two dimension-...

The purpose of this paper is to use conservative descent to study semi-orthogonal decompositions for some homogeneous varieties over general bases. We produce a semi-orthogonal decomposition for the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a generalized Severi-Brauer scheme. This extends known results for Sever-Brauer varieties and Grassmanianns. We use our results to construct semi-orthogonal decompositions for flag varieties over arbitrary bases. This generalises a r...

The Zariski closures of the orbits for representations of type A Dynkin quivers under the action of general linear groups (i.e. quiver locus) exhibit a profound connection with Schubert varieties. In this paper, we present a scheme-theoretical isomorphism between type A quiver loci and the intersection of an opposite Schubert cell and Schubert variety, also known as a Kazhdan-Lusztig variety in geometric representation theory. Our results generalize and unify the Zelevinsky m...
