Abstract: The literature on maximal torus orbits in the Grassmannian is vast; in this paper we initiate a program to extend this to diagonal subtori. Our main focus is generalizing portions of Kapranov's seminal work on Chow quotient compactifications of these orbit spaces. This leads naturally to discrete polymatroids, generalizing the matroidal framework underlying Kapranov's results. By generalizing the Gelfand-MacPherson isomorphism, these Chow quotients are seen to compactify spaces of arrangements of parameterized linear subspaces, and a generalized Gale duality holds here. A special case is birational to the Chen-Gibney-Krashen moduli space of pointed trees of projective spaces, and we show that the question of whether this birational map is an isomorphism is a specific instance of a much more general question that hasn't previously appeared in the literature, namely, whether the geometric Borel transfer principle in non-reductive GIT extends to an isomorphism of Chow quotients.
