A Gentle Introduction to Grassmannians
نویسنده
چکیده
We introduce the Grassmannian G(k, V ) as a set, and via the tools of multilinear algebra, the Plücker embedding and the Plücker coordinates on G(k, V ). We also prove some basic theorems about the Grassmannians and attempt to familiarize the reader with some of the fundamental ideas and language needed to work with the Grassmannian and its subvarieties.

Introduction to Twisted Commutative Algebras
This article is an expository account of the theory of twisted commutative algebras, which simply put, can be thought of as a theory for handling commutative algebras with large groups of linear symmetries. Examples include the coordinate rings of determinantal varieties, Segre– Veronese embeddings, and Grassmannians. The article is meant to serve as a gentle introduction to the papers of the t...

متن کاملSlicing Planar Grid Diagrams: a Gentle Introduction to Bordered Heegaard Floer Homology
We describe some of the algebra underlying the decomposition of planar grid diagrams. This provides a useful toy model for an extension of Heegaard Floer homology to 3-manifolds with parametrized boundary. This paper is meant to serve as a gentle introduction to the subject, and does not itself have immediate topological applications.
