Schubert calculus for complex reflection groups

Ortiz

Speaker:

Omar Ortiz (University of Melbourne)

Title:

Schubert calculus for complex reflection groups

Abstract:

$$p$$-compact groups are the homotopy analogues of compact Lie groups. The Weyl group of a $$p$$-compact group is a complex reflection group. In this talk I will show how the information encoded in the Weyl group can be used to study $$p$$-compact flag varieties via moment graph theory, generalizing results of Goresky-Kottwitz-MacPherson in equivariant Schubert calculus.

We will take the speaker to lunch after the talk.
