On the K -theory and Hattori-Stallings traces of minimal primitive factors of enveloping algebras of semisimple Lie algebras : the singular case

Patrick Polo (1995)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Let G be a semisimple complex algebraic group and X its flag variety. Let 𝔤 = Lie ( G ) and let U be its enveloping algebra. Let 𝔥 be a Cartan subalgebra of 𝔤 . For μ 𝔥 * , let J μ be the corresponding minimal primitive ideal, let U μ = U / J μ , and let 𝒯 U μ : K 0 ( U m u ) be the Hattori-Stallings trace. Results of Hodges suggest to study this map as a step towards a classification, up to isomorphism or Morita equivalence, of the -algebras U μ . When μ is regular, Hodges has shown that K 0 ( U μ ) K 0 ( X ) . In this case K 0 ( U μ ) is generated by the classes corresponding to...

On Zariski's theorem in positive characteristic

Ilya Tyomkin (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

In the current paper we show that the dimension of a family V of irreducible reduced curves in a given ample linear system on a toric surface S over an algebraically closed field is bounded from above by - K S . C + p g ( C ) - 1 , where C denotes a general curve in the family. This result generalizes a famous theorem of Zariski to the case of positive characteristic. We also explore new phenomena that occur in positive characteristic: We show that the equality 𝚍𝚒𝚖 ( V ) = - K S . C + p g ( C ) - 1 does not imply the nodality of C even if C belongs to the...

Parabolic bundles, products of conjugacy classes, and Gromov-Witten invariants

Constantin Teleman, Christopher Woodward (2003)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

The set of conjugacy classes appearing in a product of conjugacy classes in a compact, 1 -connected Lie group K can be identified with a convex polytope in the Weyl alcove. In this paper we identify linear inequalities defining this polytope. Each inequality corresponds to a non-vanishing Gromov-Witten invariant for a generalized flag variety G / P , where G is the complexification of K and P is a maximal parabolic subgroup. This generalizes the results for S U ( n ) of Agnihotri and the second author and Belkale on...

Parameter spaces for quadrics

Anders Thorup (1996)

Banach Center Publications

The parameter spaces for quadrics are reviewed. In addition, an explicit formula for the number of quadrics tangent to given linear subspaces is presented.

Parity sheaves, moment graphs and the p -smooth locus of Schubert varieties

Peter Fiebig, Geordie Williamson (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We show that the Braden-MacPherson algorithm computes the stalks of parity sheaves. As a consequence we deduce that the Braden-MacPherson algorithm may be used to calculate the characters of tilting modules for algebraic groups and show that the p -smooth locus of a (Kac-Moody) Schubert variety coincides with the rationally smooth locus, if the underlying Bruhat graph satisfies a GKM-condition.

Partial flag varieties and preprojective algebras

Christof Geiß, Bernard Leclerc, Jan Schröer (2008)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Let Λ be a preprojective algebra of type A , D , E , and let G be the corresponding semisimple simply connected complex algebraic group. We study rigid modules in subcategories Sub Q for Q an injective Λ -module, and we introduce a mutation operation between complete rigid modules in Sub Q . This yields cluster algebra structures on the coordinate rings of the partial flag varieties attached to  G .
