Staircase diagrams, pattern avoidance, and smooth permutations

Faqruddin Ali Azam, Edward Richmond

A well known result due to Lakshmibai and Sandhya states that smooth Schubert varieties of type A correspond to permutations that avoid the patterns 3412 and 4231. It was later sho…

Shifted lower Bruhat intervals are EL-shellable

Aman Dave, Taiwen Feng, Nathan Lesnevich +4

Let be an arbitrary Coxeter group. The shifted Bruhat interval , the translate of the Bruhat interval by an element , is partially ordered by…

Demazure product of permutations and hopping

Tina Li, Suho Oh, Edward Richmond +2

The Demazure product (also goes by the name of 0-Hecke product or the greedy product) is an associative operation on Coxeter groups with interesting properties and important applic…

The Isomorphism Problem for cominuscule Schubert Varieties

Edward Richmond, Mihail Tarigradschi, Weihong Xu

Cominuscule flag varieties generalize Grassmannians to other Lie types. Schubert varieties in cominuscule flag varieties are indexed by posets of roots labeled long/short. These la…

The parabolic coset structure of Bruhat intervals in Coxeter groups

Suho Oh, Edward Richmond

In this paper, we study the decomposition of Bruhat intervals in a Coxeter group with respect to cosets of a parabolic subgroup. Our main result is that the intersection of a lower…

On the generating function for intervals in Young's lattice

Faqruddin Azam, Edward Richmond

In this paper, we study a family of generating functions whose coefficients are polynomials that enumerate partitions in lower order ideals of Young's lattice. Our main result is t…

The isomorphism problem for Schubert varieties

Edward Richmond, William Slofstra

Schubert varieties in the full flag variety of Kac-Moody type are indexed by elements of the corresponding Weyl group. We give a practical criterion for when two such Schubert vari…

An equivariant basis for the cohomology of Springer fibers

Martha Precup, Edward Richmond

Springer fibers are subvarieties of the flag variety that play an important role in combinatorics and geometric representation theory. In this paper, we analyze the equivariant coh…

Noncommutative LR coefficients and crystal reflection operators

Edward Richmond, Vasu Tewari

We relate noncommutative Littlewood-Richardson coefficients of Bessenrodt-Luoto-van Willigenburg to classical Littlewood-Richardson coefficients via crystal reflection operators. A…

The Nash blow-up of a cominuscule Schubert variety

Edward Richmond, William Slofstra, Alexander Woo

We compute the Nash blow-up of a cominuscule Schubert variety. In particular, we show that the Nash blow-up is algebraically isomorphic to another Schubert variety of the same Lie…

Smooth Schubert varieties in the affine flag variety of type

Edward Richmond, William Slofstra

We show that every smooth Schubert variety of affine type is an iterated fibre bundle of Grassmannians, extending an analogous result by Ryan and Wolper for Schubert va…

Pattern avoidance and fiber bundle structures on Schubert varieties

Timothy Alland, Edward Richmond

We give a permutation pattern avoidance criteria for determining when the projection map from the flag variety to a Grassmannian induces a fiber bundle structure on a Schubert vari…

Staircase diagrams and enumeration of smooth Schubert varieties

Edward Richmond, William Slofstra

We enumerate smooth and rationally smooth Schubert varieties in the classical finite types A, B, C, and D, extending Haiman's enumeration for type A. To do this enumeration, we int…

Billey-Postnikov decompositions and the fibre bundle structure of Schubert varieties

Edward Richmond, William Slofstra

A theorem of Ryan and Wolper states that a type A Schubert variety is smooth if and only if it is an iterated fibre bundle of Grassmannians. We extend this theorem to arbitrary fin…

Eigenvalues of Hermitian matrices and equivariant cohomology of Grassmannians

David Anderson, Edward Richmond, Alexander Yong

The saturation theorem of [Knutson-Tao '99] concerns the nonvanishing of Littlewood-Richardson coefficients. In combination with work of [Klyachko '98], it implies [Horn '62]'s con…

Rationally smooth elements of Coxeter groups and triangle group avoidance

Edward Richmond, William Slofstra

We study a family of infinite-type Coxeter groups defined by the avoidance of certain rank 3 parabolic subgroups. For this family, rationally smooth elements can be detected by loo…

A combinatorial characterization of tight fusion frames

Marcin Bownik, Kurt Luoto, Edward Richmond

In this paper we give a combinatorial characterization of tight fusion frame (TFF) sequences using Littlewood-Richardson skew tableaux. The equal rank case has been solved recently…

Littlewood-Richardson coefficients for reflection groups

Arkady Berenstein, Edward Richmond

In this paper we explicitly compute all Littlewood-Richardson coefficients for semisimple or Kac-Moody groups G, that is, the structure coefficients of the cohomology algebra H^*(G…

Branching Schubert calculus and the Belkale-Kumar product on cohomology

Nicolas Ressayre, Edward Richmond

In 2006, Belkale and Kumar define a new product on the cohomology of flag varieties and use this new product to give an improved solution to the eigencone problem for complex reduc…

A multiplicative formula for structure constants in the cohomology of flag varieties

Edward Richmond

Let G be a complex semi-simple Lie group and let P,Q be a pair of parabolic subgroups of G such that Q contains P. Consider the flag varieties G/P, G/Q and Q/P. We show that certai…

A partial Horn recursion in the cohomology of flag varieties

Edward Richmond

Horn recursion is a term used to describe when non-vanishing products of Schubert classes in the cohomology of complex flag varieties are characterized by inequalities parameterize…
