Flag varieties are important geometric objects and their study involves an interplay of geometry, combinatorics and representation theory. This book is detailed account of this interplay. In the area of representation theory, the book presents a discussion of complex semisimple Lie algebras and of semisimple algebraic groups; in addition, the representation theory of symmetric groups is also discusses. In the area of algebraic geometry, the book gives a detailed ...
C.S. Seshadri turned seventy on the 29 of February, 2002. Some of his friends and students came together to felicitate Seshadri. To mark this occasion, a symposium was held in Chennai where some of his colleagues gave expository talks highlighting Seshadri’s contributions to mathematics. This volume contains expanded texts of these talks as well as research and expository papers on geometry and representation theory. It would undoubtedly serve as an excellent ...
