Nov 3, 2014 at 14:35 comment added user21574 Ohhh, thanks a lot, Now I undrestand that why Hirzebruch said that the first chern class of flag variaty is $2ρ$
Nov 3, 2014 at 14:30 comment added Allen Knutson A $G$-equivariant line bundle $\mathcal L$ on $G/B$ is uniquely determined by the $T$-weight on the line $\mathcal L|_{w_0 B/B}$ over the top point $w_0 B/B \in G/B$; if it's $\lambda$ (and dominant) then the space of sections is the irrep with high weight $\lambda$. Now, the tangent space $T_{B/B} G/B$ at the basepoint is $\mathfrak g/\mathfrak b$, with weights $\Delta_-$. Add those up and you get $-2\rho$. Now dualize (because we want the cotangent space, for $K_X$) and hit with $w_0$, obtaining $-2\rho$ again. In particular, when you add up all the negative roots, the result isn't dominant.
