On a conjecture of Kottwitz and Rapoport

Qëndrim R. Gashi (2010)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

We prove a conjecture of Kottwitz and Rapoport which implies a converse to Mazur’s Inequality for all (connected) split and quasi-split unramified reductive groups. Our results are related to the non-emptiness of certain affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties.

On elementary equivalence, isomorphism and isogeny

Pete L. Clark (2006)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Motivated by recent work of Florian Pop, we study the connections between three notions of equivalence of function fields: isomorphism, elementary equivalence, and the condition that each of a pair of fields can be embedded in the other, which we call isogeny. Some of our results are purely geometric: we give an isogeny classification of Severi-Brauer varieties and quadric surfaces. These results are applied to deduce new instances of “elementary equivalence implies isomorphism”: for all genus zero...

On parabolic Whittaker functions II

Sergey Oblezin (2012)

Open Mathematics

We propose a Givental-type stationary phase integral representation for the restricted Grm,N-Whittaker function, which is expected to describe the (S 1×U N)-equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants of the Grassmann variety Grm,N. Our key tool is a generalization of the Whittaker model for principal series U(gl N)-modules, and its realization in the space of functions of totally positive unipotent matrices. In particular, our construction involves a representation theoretic derivation of the Batyrev-Ciocan-Fontanine-Kim-van...

On real flag manifolds with cup-length equal to its dimension

Marko Radovanović (2020)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We prove that for any positive integers n 1 , n 2 , ... , n k there exists a real flag manifold F ( 1 , ... , 1 , n 1 , n 2 , ... , n k ) with cup-length equal to its dimension. Additionally, we give a necessary condition that an arbitrary real flag manifold needs to satisfy in order to have cup-length equal to its dimension.

On tangent cones to Schubert varieties in type E

Mikhail V. Ignatyev, Aleksandr A. Shevchenko (2020)

Communications in Mathematics

We consider tangent cones to Schubert subvarieties of the flag variety G / B , where B is a Borel subgroup of a reductive complex algebraic group G of type E 6 , E 7 or E 8 . We prove that if w 1 and w 2 form a good pair of involutions in the Weyl group W of G then the tangent cones C w 1 and C w 2 to the corresponding Schubert subvarieties of G / B do not coincide as subschemes of the tangent space to G / B at the neutral point.
