A geometric approach to Standard Monomial Theory

We obtain a geometric construction of a ``standard monomial basis'' for the homogeneous coordinate ring associated with any ample line bundle on any flag variety. This basis is compatible with Schubert varieties, opposite Schubert varieties, and unions of intersections of these varieties. Our approach relies on vanishing theorems and a degeneration of the diagonal ; it also yields a standard monomial basis for the multi-homogeneous coordinate rings of flag varieties of classical type.

Multiplicities of Singular Points in Schubert Varieties of Grassmannians

We give a closed-form formula for the Hilbert function of the tangent cone at the identity of a Schubert variety X in the Grassmannian in both group theoretic and combinatorial terms. We also give a formula for the multiplicity of X at the identity, and a Grobner basis for the ideal defining the intersection of X with the opposite cell as a closed subvariety of the opposite cell. We give conjectures for the Hilbert function and multiplicity at points other than the identity.

Degeneracy Schemes and Schubert Varieties

A result of Zelevinsky states that an orbit closure in the space of representations of the equioriented quiver of type $A_h$ is in bijection with the opposite cell in a Schubert variety of a partial flag variety $SL(n)/Q$. We prove that Zelevinsky's bijection is a scheme-theoretic isomorphism, which shows that the universal degeneracy schemes of Fulton are reduced and Cohen-Macaulay in arbitrary characteristic.

Standard Monomial Theory for Bott-Samelson Varieties of GL(n)

We construct an explicit basis for the coordinate ring of the Bott-Samelson variety Z_i associated to G = GL(n) and an arbitrary sequence of simple reflections i. Our basis is parametrized by certain standard tableaux and generalizes the Standard Monomial basis for Schubert varieties. Our standard tableaux have a natural crystal graph structure.
