[For the entire collection see Zbl 0716.00007.] Let \(G\) be a semi-simple algebraic group over \(\mathbb{C}\), and \(B\) a Borel subgroup of \(G\). Then one knows that the cohomology ring \(H^*(G/B;\mathbb{C})\) is the coinvariant algebra \(A(h)/I^ W\) associated to a certain subalgebra \(h\) of the Lie algebra of \(G\) (here, \(A(h)\) is the coordinate ring of \(h\), and \(I^ W\) is the homogeneous ideal generated by the \(W\)-invariant functions \(f\) on \(h\) such that \(f(0)=0)\). In this paper, the author proves a similar result for \(H^*(X,\mathbb{C})\), \(X\) being a Schubert variety in \(G/P\), for a parabolic subgroup \(P\supseteq B\). This paper makes a good contribution to the cohomology theory of Schubert varieties.
