Backgrounds and Terminology

What is Grassmannain? Grassmannian Grassmannian is the set of m-dimensional subspace in an n-dimensional vector space, denoted by Gr(m,n).

What is Grassmannain? Grassmannian Grassmannian is the set of m-dimensional subspace in an n-dimensional vector space, denoted by Gr(m,n). Let k be an algebraically closed field, and let k n be the vector space of column vector with n coordinates. Given a nonnegative integer m n, the Grassmann variety is defined as a set by Gr(m,n) = { k n is vector subspace with dim( ) = m}.

Let k be an algebraically closed field, and let k n be the vector space of column vector with n coordinates. Given a nonnegative integer m n, the Grassmann variety is defined as a set by Gr(m,n) = { k n is vector subspace with dim( ) = m}. For example, the set of lines Gr(1,n+1) is projective space.

What is Schubert Varieties? Schubert Varieties Schubert varieties is a certain subvariety of Grassmannian, usually with singular points.

What is Schubert Varieties? Schubert Varieties Schubert varieties is a certain subvariety of Grassmannian, usually with singular points. Let X = Gr(m,n) denote a fixed Grassmannian and set G = GL(n). We also let T G be the maximal torus of diagonal matrices and B G the Borel subgroup of upper triangular matrices.

We also let T G be the maximal torus of diagonal matrices and B G the Borel subgroup of upper triangular matrices. The orbits of the action of B on X are called the Schubert cells of X, and their closures are Schubert varieties.
