Chains in $K\backslash G/B$ lying over a closed $K$-orbit

Malheureusement, this is not true, not even for the weak order. This can be seen for example when $G = GL(4)$ and $K = GL(2) \times GL(2)$. Then $K \backslash G / B$ is parameterized by involutions …

Cohomology ring of a flag variety and representation theory

Both the study of ordinary Schubert calculus (the ordinary, e.g. Borel-Moore, cohomology of Schubert varieties of the flag variety) and the study of Kazhdan-Lusztig theory (the intersection cohomology …

Covering relations in $K\backslash G/B$

While the paper of Richardson-Springer does study the weak order, it also has useful results on the usual (strong) Bruhat order. In particular, Theorem 7.11 says that Bruhat order is characterized as …

Cohomology Ring of the Flag Manifolds, Cartan Subalgebras, and Weyl Groups

(1) Assuming you are referring to the coefficient field for your cohomology theory, then yes, the result immediately extends to $\mathbb{R}$ and $\mathbb{C}$ coefficients. (2) Two sources are Fulton' …

Is there a geometric interpretation of skew Schur functions?

This is discussed in Stanley's paper Some combinatorial aspects of the Schubert calculus. Corollary 3.7 says that under the natural isomorphism given by the Borel presentation of $H^*(G/P)$ which send …
