Using reduction to the diagonal, we previously gave a primal-dual formulation for Schubert problems that involved the same number of variables as equations (a square formulation). Here, we give a different square formulation by lifting incidence conditions which typically involves fewer equations and variables. Our motivation is certification of numerical computation using Smale's \\alpha-theory.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-04-04T04:22:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14N15", "14Q20" ], "keywords": [ "certifiable schubert calculus", "lifted square formulation", "schubert problem", "fewer equations", "lifting incidence conditions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150400979H" } } }
