I am a student almost without background on algebraic geometry (but I do know basic graduate algebra and topology). Now I am trying to understand something about algebraic stacks. I want to start wit …

Consider a $\textbf{flat}$ surjective map $f: X \rightarrow \mathbb{A}^1$. The general fibers $F_{\epsilon}$ are canonically isomorphic, and the special fiber $F_0$ above $0 \in \mathbb{A}^1$ is not i …

May I ask whether there are good references for computing blowups of the Du Val Singularities? Also, how are these singularities related to the Dynkin diagrams?

Given a flat map $f: X \rightarrow Y$ such that $X$ is a projective variety and $Y$ is a smooth curve. Each generic fiber is isomorphic to an irreducible projective variety $A$ of dimension $d$. The …

Given a morphism between two smooth toric varieties $f: X \rightarrow Y$, is the dimension of the kernel of $\mathrm{d}f$ at any point $p \in X$ equal to the dimension of the fiber at $f(p) \in Y$? …

Is there an explicit (perhaps visual) description of the fibers of the Bott-Samelson Resolutions of Schubert Varieties? Let's fix $G$ to be $GL_n(\mathbb{C})$. Also, how would the answer to the quest …

Given a closed (possibly singular) projective variety $V$ with a symplectic structure and a torus action, there is a moment map $\mu: V \rightarrow Lie(T)^*$. Note that the dimension of $T$ could be …

There is a proper map $f: X \rightarrow Y$ of projective varieties. The Decomposition Theorem of Beilinson–Bernstein–Deligne-Gabber states that $$Rf∗IC_X  \cong \oplus_a IC_{\bar{Y_a}}(L_a)[shifts] …

Now let me attempt to give an answer myself. There are very concrete descriptions of the fibers $Fl_{\epsilon}$ in $Fl_{\mathbb{A}^1}$ for each $\epsilon \in \mathbb{A}^1$. $Fl_{\epsilon} \cong LG …

Let $G$ be a Lie group and $B$ a Borel subgroup. $G/B$ is the corresponding flag variety. Let $w$ be an element of the Weyl group $W$ with a reduced expression $w = s_1 \cdots s_n$. Let $X_w$ be th …

There is a Lattice model for affine Grassmannians of type A, due to Lusztig. It describes affine Grassmannians of type A as the moduli space of certain subspaces in an infinite-dimensional $\mathbb{C} …

Given a Lie group $G$ over $\mathbb{C}$ and a Borel subgroup $B$. There is this famous Bruhat decomposition of the flag variety $G/B$. How do we prove the closure relations between the cells, which …

Let $G = SL_n(\mathbb{C})$, $B$ be a Borel subgroup, and $B^-$ be the opposite Borel. Both the $B$ and $B^-$ orbits on the flag variety $G/B$ are indexed by the Weyl group $W$. Let $S_{w_1}$ and $S^ …

There is a construction of a global affine flag variety over $\mathbb{A}^1$ (or another curve) $Fl_{\mathbb{A}_1}$ such that each fiber above $\epsilon \neq 0$ is isomorphic to a direct product of the …

This is a follow-up of this previous question below: Intersections of $B$ and $B^-$ orbits in the flag variety $G/B$ Let $G = SL_n(\mathbb{C})$, $B$ be the standard Borel subgroup, and consider some …
