Introduces non-Archimedean metrics for pseudoeffective classes on Kähler manifolds.

In this note we show that the configuration spaces of the kinematic system constructed in [4] and [12] gives rise to a natural tower of sphere bundles. Moreover, we prove that, each tower of projective bundles associated to special multi- flags (cf [1], [13], [2], [3]), we can associate such a tower of sphere bundles w…

We investigate the geometry in a real Euclidean building X of type A2 of some simple configurations in the associated projective plane at infinity P, seen as ideal configurations in X, and relate it with the projective invariants (from the cross ratio on P). In particular we establish a geometric classification of gene…

We determine the explicit transformation under duality of generic configurations of four flags in $\PGL(3,\bC)$ in cross-ratio coordinates. As an application we prove invariance under duality of an invariant in the Bloch group obtained from decorated triangulations of 3-manifolds.

We study fibrations $\cV$ of toric varieties over the flag variety $G/T$, where $G$ is a compact semisimple Lie group and $T$ is a maximal torus. From symplectic data, we construct test configurations of $\cV$ and compute their Futaki invariants by employing a generalization of Pick's Theorem. We also give a simple for…

Study of algebraic curves and surfaces in flag manifold using twistor geometry.

We give a positive answer to the Berry-Robbins problem for any compact Lie group G, i.e. we show the existence of a smooth W-equivariant map from the space of regular triples in a Cartan subalgebra to the flag manifold G/T. This map is constructed via solutions to Nahm's equations and it is compatible with the SO(3) ac…

Parreau compactified the Hitchin component of a closed surface $S$ of negative Euler characteristic in such a way that a boundary point corresponds to the projectivized length spectrum of an action of $π_1(S)$ on an $\mathbb R$-Euclidean building. In this paper, we use the positivity properties of Hitchin representatio…

Positive configurations of points in the affine building were introduced in \cite{Le} as the basic object needed to define higher laminations. We start by giving a self-contained, elementary definition of positive configurations of points in the affine building and their basic properties. Then we study the geometry of …

We define convex projective structures on 2D surfaces with holes and investigate their moduli space. We prove that this moduli space is canonically identified with the higher Teichmuller space for the group PSL_3 defined in our paper math/0311149. We define the quantum version of the moduli space of convex projective s…

Let G be a simply connected, simple, complex Lie group of rank 2. We give explicit Fock-Goncharov coordinates for configurations of triples and quadruples of affine flags in G. We show that the action on triples by orientation preserving permutations corresponds to explicit quiver mutations, and that the same holds for…

If $Γ<\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ is a lattice, we define an invariant of a representation $Γ\rightarrow \mathrm{PSL}(n,\mathbb{C})$ using the Borel class $β(n)\in \mathrm{H}^3_\mathrm{c}(\mathrm{PSL}(n,\mathbb{C}),\mathbb{R})$. We show that the invariant is bounded and its maximal value is attained by conjugation of t…

The paper classifies complex Dirac structures on flag manifolds.

In the recent years, a number of issues concerning distributions generating 1- flags (called also Goursat flags) has been analyzed. Presently similar questions are discussed as regards distributions generating multi-flags. (In fact, only so-called special multi-flags, to avoid functional moduli.) In particular and fore…

We investigate the secant dimensions and the identifiablity of flag varieties parametrizing flag of sub vector spaces of a fixed vector space. We give numerical conditions ensuring that secant varieties of flag varieties have the expected dimension, and that a general point on these secant varieties is identifiable.

The aim of this paper is to show that any stable complete Riemannian flag on a compact and connected manifold is conjugated to a flag of homogenus foliations (see Definitions). Also, we give a characterization of Riemannian flags that homogenus. This result is a step toward the classification of Riemannian flags.

In the first part of this paper we study geometric formality for generalized flag manifolds, including full flag manifolds of exceptional Lie groups. In the second part we deal with the problem of the classification of invariant almost complex structures on generalized flag manifolds using topological methods.

A nonlinear flag is a finite sequence of nested closed submanifolds. We study the geometry of Frechet manifolds of nonlinear flags, in this way generalizing the nonlinear Grassmannians. As an application we describe a class of coadjoint orbits of the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms that consist of nested symplecti…

In this work we prove a Baum-Bott type residue theorem for flags of holomorphic foliations. We prove some relations between the residues of the flag and the residues of their correspondent foliations. We define the Nash residue for flags and we give a partial answer to the Baum-Bott type rationality conjecture in this …

A flag area measure on an $n$-dimensional euclidean vector space is a continuous translation-invariant valuation with values in the space of signed measures on the flag manifold consisting of a unit vector $v$ and a $(p+1)$-dimensional linear subspace containing $v$ with $0 \leq p \leq n-1$. Using local parallel sets, …

Holomorphic structures on quantum flag manifolds uniquely defined.

Flag manifolds are generalizations of projective spaces and other Grassmannians: they parametrize flags, which are nested sequences of subspaces in a given vector space. These are important objects in algebraic and differential geometry, but are also increasingly being used in data science, where many types of data are…

The study classifies transverse spheres in flag manifolds and finds new examples.

A flag is a sequence of nested subspaces. Flags are ubiquitous in numerical analysis, arising in finite elements, multigrid, spectral, and pseudospectral methods for numerical PDE; they arise in the form of Krylov subspaces in matrix computations, and as multiresolution analysis in wavelets constructions. They are comm…

If the flag curvature of a Finsler manifold reduces to sectional curvature, then locally either the Finsler metric is Riemannian, or the flag curvature is isotropic.

Note refutes examples of Landsberg surfaces with vanishing flag curvature.

One of the most important problems in Finsler geometry is to classify Finsler metrics of scalar flag curvature. In this paper, we study the classification problem of Randers metrics of scalar flag curvature. Under the condition that $β$ is a Killing 1-form, we obtain some important necessary conditions for Randers metr…

Develops TCD maps to relate discrete differential geometry and cluster algebras.

The flag curvature is a natural extension of the sectional curvature in Riemannian geometry, and the S-curvature is a non-Riemannian quantity which vanishes for Riemannian metrics. There are (incomplete) non-Riemannian Finsler metrics on an open subset in R^n with negative flag curvature and constant S-curvature. In th…
