Abstract
Let ~q~ 1 . . . . , 2 ' , be invertible sheaves on a variety X. We may form the multigraded ring A = ~F(X, | where the vector (m) ranges in N". Then C = Spec(A) is a multi-cone. If X is a projective Cohen-Macaulay variety, n = l and L~'l is very ample, Serre has given a criterion for C to be Cohen-Macaulay in terms of the cohomology of sheaves on X. We know no reasonable analog of this result when n > 1. On the other hand we will give such a criterion for C to have rational singularity when X does. This is a stronger restriction on the singularities of C. Then we will give an application to multi-cones based on Schubert varieties. Let G be a reductive algebraic group, B a Borel subgroup and X ~G/B a Schubert variety. Let s176 &~ ..., 5q~ be the line bundles on G/B corresponding to the fundamental weights. An arbitrary line bundle corresponding to a dominant weight has the form

The Cox Ring of a Del Pezzo Surface

TL;DR: In this paper, the Cox ring of X r (r ⩾ 4) was shown to be similar to the homogeneous coordinate ring of the orbit of the highest weight vector in some irreducible representation of the algebraic group associated with the root system R r.

Generic singularities of certain Schubert varieties

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the singularity of a maximal parabolic subgroup corresponding to a minuscule or cominuscule fundamental weight is isomorphic to the orbit closure of a highest weight vector in a certain Weyl module.

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.

Equations defining schubert varieties and frobenius splitting of diagonals

TL;DR: The Grassmannian has a natural decomposition into affine spaces in projective 3-space as discussed by the authors, which is a projective variety with a natural embedding in P A' V, the projective space of lines in the r-th exterior power of a vector space V. For a vector in A" V to be decomposable its PRicker coordinates should satisfy certain quadratic relations.
