A description based on Schubert classes of cohomology of flag manifolds

Masaki Nakagawa (2008)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We describe the integral cohomology rings of the flag manifolds of types Bₙ, Dₙ, G₂ and F₄ in terms of their Schubert classes. The main tool is the divided difference operators of Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand and Demazure. As an application, we compute the Chow rings of the corresponding complex algebraic groups, recovering thereby the results of R. Marlin.

A note on the cohomology ring of the oriented Grassmann manifolds G ˜ n , 4

Tomáš Rusin (2019)

Archivum Mathematicum

We use known results on the characteristic rank of the canonical 4 –plane bundle over the oriented Grassmann manifold G ˜ n , 4 to compute the generators of the 2 –cohomology groups H j ( G ˜ n , 4 ) for n = 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 . Drawing from the similarities of these examples with the general description of the cohomology rings of G ˜ n , 3 we conjecture some predictions.
