Schubert classes in the equivariant cohomology of the Lagrangian Grassmannian

Publication date 26 September 2007

Abstract: Let

L G_{n}

denote the Lagrangian Grassmannian parametrizing maximal isotropic (Lagrangian) subspaces of a fixed symplectic vector space of dimension

2 n .

For each strict partition

l a m b d a = (l a m b d a_{1}, ..., l a m b d a_{k})

with

l a m b d a_{1} l e q n

there is a Schubert variety

X (l a m b d a) .

Let

T

denote a maximal torus of the symplectic group acting on

L G_{n} .

Consider the

T

-equivariant cohomology of

L G_{n}

and the

T

-equivariant fundamental class

s i g m a (l a m b d a)

of

X (l a m b d a) .

The main result of the present paper is an explicit formula for the restriction of the class

s i g m a (l a m b d a)

to any torus fixed point. The formula is written in terms of factorial analogue of the Schur

Q

-function, introduced by Ivanov. As a corollary to the restriction formula, we obtain an equivariant version of the Giambelli-type formula for

L G_{n} .

As another consequence of the main result, we obtained a presentation of the ring

H_{T}^{*} (L G_{n}) .
