Maximal compatible splitting and diagonals of Kempf varieties

Niels Lauritzen, Jesper Funch Thomsen (2011)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Lakshmibai, Mehta and Parameswaran (LMP) introduced the notion of maximal multiplicity vanishing in Frobenius splitting. In this paper we define the algebraic analogue of this concept and construct a Frobenius splitting vanishing with maximal multiplicity on the diagonal of the full flag variety. Our splitting induces a diagonal Frobenius splitting of maximal multiplicity for a special class of smooth Schubert varieties first considered by Kempf. Consequences are Frobenius splitting of tangent bundles,...

Metrics with homogeneous geodesics on flag manifolds

Dimitri V. Alekseevsky, Andreas Arvanitoyeorgos (2002)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

A geodesic of a homogeneous Riemannian manifold ( M = G / K , g ) is called homogeneous if it is an orbit of an one-parameter subgroup of G . In the case when M = G / H is a naturally reductive space, that is the G -invariant metric g is defined by some non degenerate biinvariant symmetric bilinear form B , all geodesics of M are homogeneous. We consider the case when M = G / K is a flag manifold, i.eȧn adjoint orbit of a compact semisimple Lie group G , and we give a simple necessary condition that M admits a non-naturally reductive...
