Divided difference operators on convex polytopes
P. 5-7.
I describe a convex geometric procedure for building generalized Newton polytopes of Schubert varieties. One of the goals is to extend to arbitrary reductive groups our joint work with Evgeny Smirnov and Vladlen Timorin on Schubert calculus (in type A) in terms of Gelfand-Zetlin polytopes.

We construct generalized Newton polytopes for Schubert subvarieties in the variety of complete flags in C^n . Every such “polytope” is a union of faces of a Gelfand–Zetlin polytope (the latter is a well-known Newton–Okounkov body for the flag variety). These unions of faces are responsible for Demazure characters of Schubert varieties and were originally used ...

We describe an elementary convex geometric algorithm for realizing Schubert cycles in complete flag varieties by unions of faces of polytopes. For GL_n and Gelfand{Zetlin polytopes, combinatorics of this algorithm coincides with that of the mitosis on pipe dreams introduced by Knutson and Miller. For Sp_4 and a Newton{Okounkov polytope of the symplectic flag variety, ...

A Newton-Okounkov polytope of a complete flag variety can be turned into a convex geometric model for Schubert calculus. Namely, we can represent Schubert cycles by linear combinations of faces of the polytope so that the intersection product of cycles corresponds to the set-theoretic intersection of faces (whenever the latter are transverse). We explain the ...

We define convex-geometric counterparts of divided difference (or Demazure) operators from the Schubert calculus and representation theory. These operators are used to construct inductively polytopes that capture Demazure characters of representations of reductive groups. In particular, Gelfand-Zetlin polytopes and twisted cubes of Grossberg-Karshon are obtained in a uniform way. This preprint contains the proofs of ...

In [K], a convex-geometric algorithm was introduced for building new analogs of Gelfand–Zetlin polytopes for arbitrary reductive groups. Conjecturally, these polytopes coincide with the Newton–Okounkov polytopes of flag varieties for a geometric valuation. I outline an algorithm (geometric mitosis) for finding collec- tion of faces in these polytopes that represent a given Schubert cycle. For ...

We prove some vanishing theorems for the cohomology groups of local systems associated to Laurent polynomials. In particular, we extend one of the results of Gelfand et al. [Generalized Euler integrals and A-hypergeometric functions, Adv. Math. 84 (1990), 255–271] to various directions. In the course of the proof, some properties of vanishing cycles of perverse sheaves ...

Toric geometry exhibited a profound relation between algebra and topology on one side and combinatorics and convex geometry on the other side. In the last decades, the interplay between algebraic and convex geometry has been explored and used successfully in a much more general setting: first, for varieties with an algebraic group action (such as ...

Schubert polynomials for the classical groups were defined by S.Billey and M.Haiman in 1995; they are polynomial representatives of Schubert classes in a full flag variety over a classical group. We provide a combinatorial description for these polynomials, as well as their double versions, by introducing analogues of pipe dreams, or RC-graphs, for Weyl groups ...

Recently the second author and Van Proeyen proved the monodromy conjecture on topological zeta functions for all non-degenerate surface singularities. In this paper, we obtain higher-dimensional analogues of their results, which, in particular, prove the conjecture for all isolated singularities of 4 variables, as well as for many classes of non-isolated and higher-dimensional singularities. One ...

The monodromy conjecture is an umbrella term for several conjectured relationships between poles of zeta functions, monodromy eigenvalues and roots of Bernstein-Sato polynomials in arithmetic geometry and singularity theory. Even the weakest of these relations --- the Denef--Loeser conjecture on topological zeta functions --- is open for surface singularities. We prove it for a wide ...

Given a Laurent polynomial f, one can form the period of f: this is a function of one complex variable that plays an important role in mirror symmetry for Fano manifolds. Mutations are a particular class of birational transformations acting on Laurent polynomials in two variables; they preserve the period and are closely connected with ...
