The integral homology and cohomology rings of Gr are identified with dual Hopf algebras of symmetric functions, defined in terms of Schur's P and Q-functions. An explicit combinatorial description is obtained for the Schubert basis of the cohomology of Gr, and this is extended to a definition of the affine type C Stanley symmetric functions. A homology Pieri rule is also given for the product of a special Schubert class with an arbitrary one.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2009-02-04T16:42:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05E05", "14N15" ], "keywords": [ "symplectic group", "schubert polynomials", "homology pieri rule", "dual hopf algebras", "stanley symmetric functions" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 45, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2007arXiv0710.2720L" } } }
