Schubert Class and Cyclotomic NilHecke Algebras

Let [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] be positive integers such that [Formula: see text], and let [Formula: see text] be the Grassmannian which consists of the set of [Formula: see text]-dimensional subspaces of [Formula: see text]. There is a [Formula: see text]-graded algebra isomorphism between the cohomology [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] and a natural [Formula: see text]-form [Formula: see text] of the [Formula: see text]-graded basic algebra of the type [Formula: see text] cyclotomic nilHecke algebra [Formula: see text]. We show that the isomorphism can be chosen such that the image of each (geometrically defined) Schubert class [Formula: see text] coincides with the basis element [Formula: see text] constructed by Hu and Liang by purely algebraic method, where [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] for each [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] is the [Formula: see text]-multipartition of [Formula: see text] associated to [Formula: see text]. A similar correspondence between the Schubert class basis of the cohomology of the Grassmannian [Formula: see text] and the [Formula: see text]'s basis ([Formula: see text] is an [Formula: see text]-multipartition of [Formula: see text] with each component being either [Formula: see text] or empty) of the natural [Formula: see text]-form [Formula: see text] of the [Formula: see text]-graded basic algebra of [Formula: see text] is also obtained. As an application, we obtain a second version of the Giambelli formula for Schubert classes.

Inverse K-Chevalley formulas for semi-infinite flag manifolds, I: minuscule weights in ADE type

We prove an explicit inverse Chevalley formula in the equivariant K-theory of semi-infinite flag manifolds of simply laced type. By an ‘inverse Chevalley formula’ we mean a formula for the product of an equivariant scalar with a Schubert class, expressed as a $\mathbb {Z}\left [q^{\pm 1}\right ]$ -linear combination of Schubert classes twisted by equivariant line bundles. Our formula applies to arbitrary Schubert classes in semi-infinite flag manifolds of simply laced type and equivariant scalars $e^{\lambda }$ , where $\lambda $ is an arbitrary minuscule weight. By a result of Stembridge, our formula completely determines the inverse Chevalley formula for arbitrary weights in simply laced type except for type $E_8$ . The combinatorics of our formula is governed by the quantum Bruhat graph, and the proof is based on a limit from the double affine Hecke algebra. Thus our formula also provides an explicit determination of all nonsymmetric q-Toda operators for minuscule weights in ADE type.

Chern–Schwartz–MacPherson classes for Schubert cells in flag manifolds

We obtain an algorithm computing the Chern–Schwartz–MacPherson (CSM) classes of Schubert cells in a generalized flag manifold$G/B$. In analogy to how the ordinary divided difference operators act on Schubert classes, each CSM class of a Schubert class is obtained by applying certain Demazure–Lusztig-type operators to the CSM class of a cell of dimension one less. These operators define a representation of the Weyl group on the homology of$G/B$. By functoriality, we deduce algorithmic expressions for CSM classes of Schubert cells in any flag manifold$G/P$. We conjecture that the CSM classes of Schubert cells are an effective combination of (homology) Schubert classes, and prove that this is the case in several classes of examples. We also extend our results and conjecture to the torus equivariant setting.
