Writing a matrix Schubert variety $\\overline{X_w}$ as $\\overline{X_w}=Y_w\\times \\mathbb{C}^d$ (where $d$ is maximal possible), we show that $Y_w$ can be of complexity-$k$ exactly when $k\\neq 1$. Also, we give a combinatorial description of the extremal rays of the weight cone of a Kazhdan-Lusztig variety, which in particular turns out to be the edge cone of an acyclic directed graph. As a consequence we show that given permutations $v$ and $w$, the complexity of Kazhdan-Lusztig variety indexed by $(v,w)$ is the same as the complexity of the Richardson variety indexed by $(v,w)$. Finally, we use this description to compute the complexity of certain Kazhdan-Lusztig varieties.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2022-11-23T21:55:03.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14M15", "14M25", "52B20", "05E10", "05C20" ], "keywords": [ "kazhdan-lusztig variety", "usual torus action", "complexity", "matrix schubert variety", "acyclic directed graph" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 28, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
