Quelques applications de la cohomologie d'intersection
The cohomology of Nakajima’s varieties is known to carry a natural Weyl group action. Here this fact is established using the method of intersection cohomology, in analogy with the definition of Springer’s representations.
Let X be an algebraic toric variety with respect to an action of an algebraic torus S. Let Σ be the corresponding fan. The aim of this paper is to investigate open subsets of X with a good quotient by the (induced) action of a subtorus T ⊂ S. It turns out that it is enough to consider open S-invariant subsets of X with a good quotient by T. These subsets can be described by subfans of Σ. We give a description of such subfans and also a description of fans corresponding to quotient varieties. Moreover,...
