Uniqueness property for spherical homogeneous spaces

Real orbits of complex spherical homogeneous spaces: the split case

We identify the $G(\mathbb R)$-orbits of the real locus $X(\mathbb R)$ of any spherical complex variety $X$ defined over $\mathbb R$ and homogeneous under a split connected reductive group $G$ defined also over $\mathbb R$. This is done by introducing some reflection operators on the set of real Borel orbits of $X(\mathbb R)$. We thus investigate the existence problem for an action of the Weyl group of $G$ on the set of real Borel orbits of $X(\mathbb R)$. In particular, we determine the varieties $X$ for which these operators define an action of the very little Weyl group of $X$ on the set of…

Intersections of Hypersurfaces and Ring of Conditions of a Spherical Homogeneous Space

We prove a version of the BKK theorem for the ring of conditions of a spherical homogeneous space $G/H$. We also introduce the notion of ring of complete intersections, firstly for a spherical homogeneous space and secondly for an arbitrary variety. Similarly to the ring of conditions of the torus, the ring of complete intersections of $G/H$ admits a description in terms of volumes of polytopes.

Spherical homogeneous spaces of minimal rank

Let $G$ be a complex connected reductive algebraic group and $G/B$ denote the flag variety of $G$. A $G$-homogeneous space $G/H$ is said to be {\it spherical} if $H$ acts on $G/B$ with finitely many orbits. A class of spherical homogeneous spaces containing the tori, the complete homogeneous spaces and the group $G$ (viewed as a $G\times G$-homogeneous space) has particularly nice proterties. Namely, the pair $(G,H)$ is called a {\it spherical pair of minimal rank} if there exists $x$ in $G/B$ such that the orbit $H.x$ of $x$ by $H$ is open in $G/B$ and the stabilizer $H_x$ of $x$ in $H$ conta…

Embeddings of spherical homogeneous spaces in characteristic p

Let G be a reductive group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0. We study properties of embeddings of spherical homogeneous G-spaces. We look at Frobenius splittings, canonical or by a (p-1)-th power, compatible with certain subvarieties. We also look at cohomology vanishing and show the existence of rational G-equivariant resolutions by toroidal embeddings. We show that the class of homogeneous spaces for which our results hold contains the symmetric homogeneous spaces in characteristic not 2 and is closed under parabolic induction.

The Cox ring of a spherical embedding

Let G be a connected reductive group and G/H a spherical homogeneous space. We show that the ideal of relations between a natural set of generators of the Cox ring of a G-embedding of G/H can be obtained by homogenizing certain equations which depend only on the homogeneous space. Using this result, we describe some examples of spherical homogeneous spaces such that the Cox ring of any of their G-embeddings is defined by one equation.

Uniqueness of balanced metrics on holomorphic vector bundles

Let $E\to M$ be a holomorphic vector bundle over a compact Kaehler manifold $(M, ω)$. We prove that if $E$ admits a $ω$-balanced metric (in X. Wang's terminology) then it is unique. This result together with a result of L. Biliotti and A. Ghigi implies the existence and uniqueness of $ω$-balanced metrics of certain direct sums of irreducible homogeneous vector bundles over rational homogeneous varieties. We finally apply our result to show the rigidity of $ω$-balanced Kaehler maps into Grassmannians.

On embeddings of certain spherical homogeneous spaces in prime characteristic

Let $\mc G$ be a reductive group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. We study homogeneous $\mc G$-spaces that are induced from the $G\times G$-space $G$, $G$ a suitable reductive group, along a parabolic subgroup of $\mc G$. We show that, under certain mild assumptions, any (normal) equivariant embedding of such a homogeneous space is canonically Frobenius split compatible with certain subvarieties and has an equivariant rational resolution by a toroidal embedding. In particular, all these embeddings are Cohen-Macaulay. Examples are the $G\times G$-orbits in normal redu…

Complete intersections in spherical varieties

Let G be a complex reductive algebraic group. We study complete intersections in a spherical homogeneous space G/H defined by a generic collection of sections from G-invariant linear systems. Whenever nonempty, all such complete intersections are smooth varieties. We compute their arithmetic genus as well as some of their h^{p,0} numbers. The answers are given in terms of the moment polytopes and Newton-Okounkov polytopes associated to G-invariant linear systems. We also give a necessary and sufficient condition on a collection of linear systems so that the corresponding generic complete inter…

Log homogeneous varieties

Given a complete nonsingular algebraic variety $X$ and a divisor $D$ with normal crossings, we say that $X$ is log homogeneous with boundary $D$ if the logarithmic tangent bundle $T_X(- \log D)$ is generated by its global sections. We then show that the Albanese morphism $α$ is a fibration with fibers being spherical (in particular, rational) varieties. It follows that all irreducible components of $D$ are nonsingular, and any partial intersection of them is irreducible. Also, the image of $X$ under the morphism $σ$ associated with $- K_X - D$ is a spherical variety, and the irreducible compon…
