Abstract: We describe a stratification on the double flag variety $G/B^{+}imesG/B^{-}$ of a complex semisimple algebraic group $G$ analogous to the Deodhar stratification on the flag variety $G/B^{+}$, which is a refinement of the stratification into orbits both for $B^{+}imes{B}^{-}$ and for the diagonal action of $G$, just as Deodhar's stratification refines the orbits of $B^{+}$ and $B^{-}$. We give a coordinate system on each stratum, and show that all strata are coisotropic subvarieties. Also, we discuss possible connections to the positive and cluster geometry of $G/B^{+}imesG/B^{-}$, which would generalize results of Fomin and Zelevinsky on double Bruhat cells and Marsh and Rietsch on double Schubert cells.
