Flag Varieties An Interplay of Geometry, Combinatorics, and Representation Theory / by V Lakshmibai, Justin Brown.

This book discusses the importance of flag varieties in geometric objects and elucidates its richness as interplay of geometry, combinatorics and representation theory. The book presents a discussion on the representation theory of complex semisimple Lie algebras, as well as the representation theor...
