The closure of a generic torus orbit in the flag variety G / B G/B of type  A A is known to be a permutohedral variety, and its Poincaré polynomial agrees with the Eulerian polynomial. In this paper, we study the Poincaré polynomial of a generic torus orbit closure in a Schubert variety in  G / B G/B . When the generic torus orbit closure in a Schubert variety is smooth, its Poincaré polynomial is known to agree with a certain generalization of the Eulerian polynomial. We extend this result to an arbitrary generic torus orbit closure which is not necessarily smooth.

AbstractLet $$\mathcal S$$ S be a single condition Schubert variety with an arbitrary number of strata. Recently, an explicit description of the summands involved in the decomposition theorem applied to such a variety has been obtained in a paper of the second author. Starting from this result, we provide an explicit description of the Poincaré polynomial of the intersection cohomology of $$\mathcal S$$ S by means of the Poincaré polynomials of its strata, obtaining interesting polynomial identities relating Poincaré polynomials of several Grassmannians, both by a local and by a global point of view. We also present a symbolic study of a particular case of these identities.

International audience We link Schubert varieties in the generalized flag manifolds with hyperplane arrangements. For an element of a Weyl group, we construct a certain graphical hyperplane arrangement. We show that the generating function for regions of this arrangement coincides with the Poincaré polynomial of the corresponding Schubert variety if and only if the Schubert variety is rationally smooth. Nous relions des variétés de Schubert dans le variété flag généralisée avec des arrangements des hyperplans. Pour un élément dún groupe de Weyl, nous construisons un certain arrangement graphique des hyperplans. Nous montrons que la fonction génératrice pour les régions de cet arrangement coincide avec le polynome de Poincaré de la variété de Schubert correspondante si et seulement si la variété de Schubert est rationnellement lisse.

International audience Let $G$ be a connected reductive linear algebraic group over $ℂ$ with an involution $θ$ . Denote by $K$ the subgroup of fixed points. In certain cases, the $K-orbits$ in the flag variety $G/B$ are indexed by the twisted identities $ι (θ ) = {θ (w^{-1})w | w∈W}$ in the Weyl group $W$. Under this assumption, we establish a criterion for rational smoothness of orbit closures which generalises classical results of Carrell and Peterson for Schubert varieties. That is, whether an orbit closure is rationally smooth at a given point can be determined by examining the degrees in a "Bruhat graph'' whose vertices form a subset of $ι (θ )$. Moreover, an orbit closure is rationally smooth everywhere if and only if its corresponding interval in the Bruhat order on $ι (θ )$ is rank symmetric. In the special case $K=\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}(ℂ), G=\mathrm{SL}_{2n}(ℂ)$, we strengthen our criterion by showing that only the degree of a single vertex, the "bottom one'', needs to be examined. This generalises a result of Deodhar for type A Schubert varieties. Soit $G$ un groupe algébrique connexe réductif sur $ℂ$, équipé d'une involution $θ$ . Soit $K$ le sousgroupe de ses points fixes. Dans certains cas, les orbites des points de la variété de drapeaux $G/B$ sous l'action de $K$ sont indexées par les identités tordues, $ι (θ ) = {θ (w^{-1})w | w∈W}$, du groupe de Weyl $W$. Sous cette hypothèse, on établit un critère pour la lissité rationnelle des adhérences des orbites, qui généralise des résultats classiques de Carrell et Peterson pour les variétés de Schubert. Plus précisément, on peut déterminer si l'adhérence d'une orbite est rationnellement lisse en examinant les degrés dans un "Graphe de Bruhat" dont les sommets forment un sous-ensemble de $ι (θ )$. En outre, l'adhérence d'une orbite est partout rationnellement lisse si et seulement si l'intervalle correspondant dans l'ordre de Bruhat de $ι (θ )$ est symétrique respectivement au rang. Dans le cas particulier $K=\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}(ℂ), G=\mathrm{SL}_{2n}(ℂ)$, nous améliorons notre critère en montrant qu'il suffit d'examiner le degré d'un seul sommet, celui "du bas". Ceci généralise un résultat de Deodhar pour les variétés de Schubert de type A.

We consider a lifting of Joseph ideals for the minimal nilpotent orbit closure to the setting of affine Kac–Moody algebras and find new examples of affine vertex algebras whose associated varieties are minimal nilpotent orbit closures. As an application we obtain a new family of lisse ($C_{2}$-cofinite)$W$-algebras that are not coming from admissible representations of affine Kac–Moody algebras.

AbstractFor the Kronecker algebra, Zwara found in [14] an example of a module whose orbit closure is neither unibranch nor Cohen-Macaulay. In this paper, we explain how to extend this example to all representation-infinite algebras with a preprojective component.

AbstractWe show that endomorphism rings of cogenerators in the module category of a finite-dimensional algebra A admit a canonical tilting module, whose tilted algebra B is related to A by a recollement. Let M be a gen-finite A-module, meaning there are only finitely many indecomposable modules generated by M. Using the canonical tilts of endomorphism algebras of suitable cogenerators associated to M, and the resulting recollements, we construct desingularisations of the orbit closure and quiver Grassmannians of M, thus generalising all results from previous work of Crawley-Boevey and the second author in 2017. We provide dual versions of the key results, in order to also treat cogen-finite modules.

International audience Start with a permutation matrix π and consider all matrices that can be obtained from π by taking downward row operations and rightward column operations; the closure of this set gives the matrix Schubert variety Xπ. We characterize when the ideal defining Xπ is toric (with respect to a 2n − 1-dimensional torus) and study the associated polytope of its projectivization. We construct regular triangulations of these polytopes which we show are geometric realizations of a family of subword complexes. We also show that these complexes can be realized geometrically via regular triangulations of root polytopes. This implies that a family of β-Grothendieck polynomials are special cases of reduced forms in the subdivision algebra of root polytopes. We also write the volume and Ehrhart series of root polytopes in terms of β-Grothendieck polynomials. Subword complexes were introduced by Knutson and Miller in 2004, who showed that they are homeomorphic to balls or spheres and raised the question of their polytopal realizations.
