Bruhat order, rationally smooth Schubert varieties, and hyperplane arrangements

چکیده
We link Schubert varieties in the generalized flag manifolds with hyperplane arrangements. For an element of a Weyl group, 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 rationally smooth. Résumé. Nous relions des variétés de Schubert dans le variété flag généralisée avec des arrangements des hyperplans. Pour un élément dún groupe de Weyl, nous construisons un certain arrangement graphique des hyperplans. Nous montrons que la fonction génératrice pour les régions de cet arrangement coincide avec le polynome de Poincaré de la variété de Schubert correspondante si et seulement si la variété de Schubert est rationnellement lisse.

متن کاملRationally smooth Schubert varieties, inversion hyperplane arrangements, and Peterson translation
We show that an element w of a finite Weyl group W is rationally smooth if and only if the hyperplane arrangement I(w) associated to the inversion set of w is inductively free, and the product (d1 +1) · · · (dl +1) of the coexponents d1, . . . , dl is equal to the size of the Bruhat interval [e, w]. We also use Peterson translation of coconvex sets to give a Shapiro-Steinberg-Kostant rule for t...
متن کاملCombinatorics in Schubert varieties and Specht modules
This thesis consists of two parts. Both parts are devoted to finding links between geometric/algebraic objects and combinatorial objects. In the first part of the thesis, we link Schubert varieties in the full flag variety with hyperplane arrangements. Schubert varieties are parameterized by elements of the Weyl group. For each element of the Weyl group, we construct certain hyperplane arrangem...
متن کاملInversion arrangements and Bruhat intervals
Let W be a finite Coxeter group. For a given w ∈ W , the following assertion may or may not be satisfied: (∗) The principal Bruhat order ideal of w contains as many elements as there are regions in the inversion hyperplane arrangement of w. We present a type independent combinatorial criterion which characterises the elements w ∈ W that satisfy (∗). A couple of immediate consequences are derive...
