    Seshadri stratifications and standard monomial theory

    Full text link
    We introduce the notion of a Seshadri stratification on an embedded projective variety. Such a structure enables us to construct a Newton-Okounkov simplicial complex and a flat degeneration of the projective variety into a union of toric varieties. We show that the Seshadri stratification provides a geometric setup for a standard monomial theory. In this framework, Lakshmibai-Seshadri paths for Schubert varieties get a geometric interpretation as successive vanishing orders of regular functions

    On normal Seshadri stratifications

    No full text
    The existence of a Seshadri stratification on an embedded projective variety provides a flat degeneration of the variety to a union of projective toric varieties, called a semi-toric variety. Such a stratification is said to be normal when each irreducible component of the semi-toric variety is a normal toric variety. In this case, we show that a Gröbner basis of the defining ideal of the semi-toric variety can be lifted to define the embedded projective variety. Applications to Koszul and Gorenstein properties are discussed. Relations between LS-algebras and certain Seshadri stratifications are studied

    Equations defining symmetric varieties and affine grassmannians

    Suppose σ be a simple involution of a semisimple algebraic group G, and suppose H is the subgroup of G of points fixed by σ. If the restricted root system is of type A,C, or BC and G is simply connected, or if the restricted root system is of type B and G is of adjoint type, then we describe a standard monomial theory and the equations for the coordinate ring k[G/H] using the standard monomial theory and the Plu ̈ cker relations of an appropriate (maybe infinite-dimensional) Grassmann variety

    LS algebras, valuations, and Schubert varieties

    No full text
    In this paper, we propose an algebraic approach via Lakshmibai–Seshadri (LS) algebras to establish a link between standard monomial theories, Newton–Okounkov bodies and valuations. This is applied to Schubert varieties, where this approach is compatible with the one using Seshadri stratifications in arXiv:2112.03776, showing that LS paths encode vanishing multiplicities with respect to the web of Schubert varieties

    Seshadri stratifications and Schubert varieties: a geometric construction of a standard monomial theory

    No full text
    A standard monomial theory for Schubert varieties is constructed exploiting (1) the geometry of the Seshadri stratifi-cations of Schubert varieties by their Schubert subvarieties and (2) the combinatorial LS-path character formula for Demazure modules. The general theory of Seshadri stratifications is improved by using arbitrary linearization of the partial order and by weak-ening the definition of balanced stratification

    Degenerate flag varieties and Schubert varieties: A characteristic free approach

    Full text link
    We consider the PBW filtrations over Z of the irreducible highest weight modules in type An and Cn. We show that the associated graded modules can be realized as Demazure modules for group schemes of the same type and doubled rank. We deduce that the corresponding degenerate flag varieties are isomorphic to Schubert varieties in any characteristic

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
