Trivial morphism between local cohomology groups

I have two questions concerning morphism between local cohomology groups which I think are related. Let $G$ be a reductive group with Weyl group $W$ and $B \subset G$ a Borel. Let $X=G/B$ be the flag ...

Union of Schubert cells being affine

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, $G$ be a reductive group with a Borel $B$ and $\mathcal{F}:=G/B$ the associated flag variety. Let $W$ be the Weyl-group of G. Then let $S \subset W$ and $Z=\...

Generically intersecting Schubert cycles

I have a question about the the proof of Pieri's formula from Harris' and Eisenbuds's lecture "3264 and All That"on page 146. Before the proof we use this terminology (see page 139): let $G=G(k,V)$...

Can Schubert cells be defined, set theoretically, by less equations then the standard ones?

Let $V = \mathbb{C}^n$ with basis $e_1,\dots,e_n$, and $U = \langle e_1,\dots,e_k\rangle$. Let $$\Sigma(U)=\{\sigma\in Gr(V,2)\mid \sigma\in U \}$$ be the Schubert cell of $2$-planes contained in $U$....

Can Bruhat cells in semi simple groups be induced from matrices?

Let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group. Embed it as a subgroup into a special linear group of suitable rank, $SL(n)$ (real or complex). The question is: is it always possible to find such an embedding, ...

Schubert problems to cycle class in Grassmanian

Say I have a family of linear spaces, and that I can solve all Schuber problems of that family (that is, how many members of the family pass through a set $S$ of linear spaces, where we consider all ...

Comparing the Kazhdan-Lusztig and Steinberg pre-orders

Both Kazhdan-Lusztig and Steinberg have defined pairs of preorders on $S_n$. Kazhdan and Lusztig's preorders come from their basis: We write $x\leq_L y$ if any left ideal spanned by K-L basis ...

Detailed proof of cup product equivalent to intersection

Consider a smooth, closed, compact finite-dim manifold. We have Poincare Duality to relate the cocycles and cycles. I would like to know where I can find a reference for a proof that the cup ...
