Abstract: The integral singular cohomology ring of the Grassmann variety parametrizing r-dimensional subspaces in the n-dimensional complex vector space is naturally an irreducible representation of the Lie algebra of all the nimesn matrices with integral entries. Using the notion of Schubert derivation, a distinguished Hasse-Schmidt derivation on an exterior algebra, we describe explicitly such a representation, indicating its relationship with the celebrated bosonic vertex representation of the Lie algebra of infinite matrices due to Date, Jimbo, Kashiwara and Miwa.
