Abstract: Let SFlaambda be the degenerate symplectic flag variety. These are projective singular irreducible degenerations of the classical flag varieties for symplectic group Sp2n. We give an explicit construction for the varieties SFlaambda and construct their desingularizations, similar to the Bott-Samelson resolutions in the classical case. We prove that SFlaa are normal locally complete intersections with terminal and rational singularities. We also show that these varieties are Frobenius split. Using the above mentioned results, we prove an analogue of the Borel-Weil-Bott theorem and obtain a q-character formula for the characters of irreducible Sp2n-modules via the Atiyah-Bott-Lefschetz fixed points formula.
