Our result is stated in a root-system uniform manner by introducing the essential set of a Coxeter group element, generalizing and giving a new characterization of [Fulton '92]'s definition for permutations. Further refinements are obtained in type A.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2009-09-04T21:19:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14M15", "14N15" ], "keywords": [ "schubert variety", "cohomology", "coxeter group element", "root-system uniform manner", "generalized flag manifold" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "AMS", "journal": "Trans.
