Compactifications of Symmetric and Locally Symmetric Spaces

TL;DR: A review of classical compactifications of Symmetric Spaces can be found in this article, along with a comparison of the Oshima-Sekiguchi Compactification of G/Hw (R) and its real points.

Equivariant Chow groups for torus actions

Michel Brion
TL;DR: In this article, the authors study Edidin and Graham's equivariant Chow groups in the case of torus actions and obtain a presentation of the Chow ring of any smooth, projective spherical variety.

The behaviour at infinity of the Bruhat decomposition

TL;DR: For a connected reductive group G and a Borel subgroup B, this paper studied the closures of double classes BgB in a regular compactification of G and showed that these closures intersect properly all (G \times G) orbits, with multiplicity one, and described the intersections.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the geometry of spherical varieties

TL;DR: A survey article on the geometry of spherical varieties can be found in this paper, where the authors present an invited survey for transformation groups, which includes a discussion of transformation groups and transformation groups.

Compactification of symmetric varieties

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the symmetric quotient G/H, where G is an adjoint semi-simple group over a field k of characteristic 2 and H is the fixed point group of an involutorial automorphism of G which is defined over k. In the case k = C, De Concini and Procesi (1983) constructed a "wonderful" compactification ofG/H.

Frobenius splitting and cohomology vanishing for Schubert varieties

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the Cartier operator can give a manageable criterion for Frobenius splitting of Schubert varieties in characteristic p > 0, and that the map in cohomology H'(X, L) -+ H' (X, X, F*LP) = H'((X, LP), LP) is an injection.
