Manifolds of Isospectral Matrices and Hessenberg Varieties

Abstract: We consider the space X h of Hermitian matrices having staircase form and the given simple spectrum. There is a natural action of a compact torus on this space. Using generalized Toda flow, we show that X h is a smooth manifold and its smooth type is independent of the spectrum. Morse theory is then used to show the vanishing of odd degree cohomology, so that X h is an equivariantly formal manifold. The equivariant and ordinary cohomology of X h are described using GKM-theory. The main goal of this paper is to… Show more

“…The quotient ring (1.2), which is also a graded S n -module, is a Poincaré duality algebra. We observe that it agrees with the cohomology ring of the twin Y (h) of X(h) introduced by Ayzenberg-Buchstaber [4] 1 , even as graded S n -modules with a naturally defined S n -action on H * (Y (h)). Consequently, we have…”

“…To broaden parts of the discussion started above, one notes that the Peterson variety is an example of a Hessenberg variety. Introduced by the works [25,26], Hessenberg varieties are closed subvarieties of G/B with natural manifestations in topology [2,6,12,58,66,67], algebraic geometry [3,4,40,41], combinatorics [11,34,38,61], and representation theory [5,7,14,18,36]. It turns out that each Lagrangian leaf in the Toda lattice is naturally compactified by an appropriate Hessenberg variety (as we explain momentarily), generalizing the above-discussed relationship between the Peterson variety and a specific leaf.…”
