Proof. The two modules are isomorphic if and only if \( \mathbf{a} \in \mathbf{b} + F - Q \) and \( \mathbf{b} \in \mathbf{a} + F - Q \) . This condition is equivalent to \( \mathbf{a} - \mathbf{b} \in F - Q \) and \( \mathbf{b} - \mathbf{a} \in F - Q \), which is the same as \( \mathbf{a} - \mathbf{b} \in \left( {F - ...

Every module has an injective resolution. Minimal injective resolutions are unique up to isomorphism; in fact, if \( {J}^{ \bullet } \) and \( {E}^{ \bullet } \) are injective resolutions of \( M \) with \( {J}^{ \bullet } \) minimal, \( {E}^{ \bullet } \) contains \( {J}^{ \bullet } \) as a subcomplex.

That \( {\bar{W}}^{ \bullet } = {\left( {J}^{ \bullet }\right) }_{Q} \) is an irreducible resolution follows from Theorem 11.13, so it remains to demonstrate minimality.

In any \( {\mathbb{Z}}^{d} \) -graded degree \( \mathbf{a} \in \operatorname{relint}\left( C\right) \), where \( C = {\mathbb{R}}_{ \geq 0}Q \), the degree \( \mathbf{a} \) pie...

When \( \bar{F} = \varnothing \), so that the prime corresponding to \( F \) is \( {P}_{F} = \mathfrak{m} \) , the cohomology is as stated because all localizations of \( \mathbb{k}\{ - Q\} \) at primes corresponding to nonempty faces of \( \mathcal{P} \) are zero.

The first five of the six \( 3 \times 3 \) matrix Schubert varieties in Example 15.4 have \( {\mathbb{Z}}^{3 + 3} \) -graded multidegrees that are products of expressions having the form \( {t}_{i} - {s}_{j} \) by Proposition 8.49. They are, in the order they appear in Example 15.4: \( 1,{t}_{1} - {s}_{1},\left( {{t}_{...
\[ \mathcal{C}\left( {{\bar{X}}_{132};\mathbf{t},\mathbf{s}}\right) = {t}_{1} + {t}_{2} - {s}_{1} - {s}_{2} \] of \( {\bar{X}}_{132} \), as the reader should check.
No
The ideal \( {I}_{2143} \) from Example 15.7 equals \( I\left( {\bar{X}}_{2143}\right) \)
since it has a squarefree initial ideal \( \left\langle {{x}_{11},{x}_{13}{x}_{22}{x}_{31}}\right\rangle \) and is therefore a radical ideal. The multidegree of \( {\bar{X}}_{2143} \) is the double Schubert polynomial\n\n\[ \n{\mathfrak{S}}_{2143}\left( {\mathbf{t} - \mathbf{s}}\right) \n\]\n\n\[ \n= {\partial }_{2}{\p...

Corollary 16.1 Schubert polynomials have nonnegative coefficients.
Proof. Write \( {\mathfrak{S}}_{w}\left( \mathbf{t}\right) = \mathcal{C}\left( {{\bar{X}}_{w};\mathbf{t}}\right) \) as in Theorem 15.40. Choosing a term order on \( \mathbb{k}\left\lbrack \mathbf{x}\right\rbrack \), Corollary 8.47 implies that \( {\mathfrak{S}}_{w}\left( \mathbf{t}\right) = \mathcal{C}\left( {\mathbb{k...

The long permutation \( {w}_{0} = n\ldots {321} \) in \( {S}_{n} \) has a unique \( n \times n \) reduced pipe dream \( {D}_{0} \), whose + tiles fill the region strictly above the main antidiagonal, in spots \( \left( {i, j}\right) \) with \( i + j \leq n \) .
The right-hand pipe dream displayed before Definition 16.2 is \( {D}_{0} \) for \( n = 5 \) .
No
The permutation \( w = {2143} \) has three reduced pipe dreams:
\[ \mathcal{{RP}}\left( {2143}\right) = \left\{ \begin{array}{lllll} 1 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 & 2 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 4 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 3 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 3 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 \end{array}\right\} . \]

Lemma 16.5 Suppose that \( D \in \mathcal{R}\mathcal{P}\left( w\right) \), and let \( j \) be a fixed column index with \( \left( {i + 1, j}\right) \notin D \), but \( \left( {i, p}\right) \in D \) for all \( p \leq j \), and \( \left( {i + 1, p}\right) \in D \) for all \( p < j \) . Then \( l\left( {{\sigma }_{i}w}\ri...
Proof. Removing \( \left( {i, j}\right) \) only switches the exit points of the two pipes starting in rows \( i \) and \( i + 1 \) . Thus the pipe starting in row \( p \) of \( {D}^{\prime } \) exits out of column \( {\sigma }_{i}w\left( p\right) \) for every row index \( p \) . No pair of pipes can cross twice in \( {...
No
Lemma 16.7 Chuting \( D \in \mathcal{R}\mathcal{P}\left( w\right) \) yields another reduced pipe dream for \( w \) .
Proof. If two pipes intersect at the - in the northeast corner of a chutable rectangle \( C \), then chuting that + only relocates the crossing point of those two pipes to the southwest corner of \( C \) . No other pipes are affected.
No
Example 16.9 The pipe dream \( D \) at left is a reduced pipe dream for \( w = {13865742} \) . Applying mitosis \( {}_{3} \) yields the indicated set of pipe dreams:
The three offspring on the right are listed in the order they are produced by successive chute moves.

Lemma 16.10 Fix a \( k \times \ell \) partial permutation \( w \), and suppose that \( i < k \) satisfies \( {\sigma }_{i}w < w \) . Then every pipe dream \( {D}^{\prime } \in \mathcal{R}\mathcal{P}\left( {{\sigma }_{i}w}\right) \) lies in \( {\operatorname{mitosis}}_{i}\left( D\right) \) for some pipe dream \( D \in \...
Proof. In column start \( {}_{i + 1}\left( {D}^{\prime }\right) \), rows \( i \) and \( i + 1 \) in \( {D}^{\prime } \) look like \( + \), because otherwise one of two illegal things must happen: the pipes passing through the row \( i \) of column start \( {}_{i + 1} \) in \( {D}^{\prime } \) intersect again at the clo...
Yes
Theorem 16.11 If \( w \) is a \( k \times \ell \) partial permutation and \( i < k \) is a row index that satisfies \( {\sigma }_{i}w < w \), then the set of reduced pipe dreams for \( {\sigma }_{i}w \) is the disjoint union \( {\biguplus }_{D \in \mathcal{R}\mathcal{P}\left( w\right) }{\operatorname{mitosis}}_{i}\left...
Proof. Lemmas 16.5 and 16.7 imply that mitosis \( {}_{i}\left( D\right) \subseteq \mathcal{R}\mathcal{P}\left( {{\sigma }_{i}w}\right) \) whenever \( D \in \mathcal{R}\mathcal{P}\left( w\right) \), and Lemma 16.10 gives the reverse containment. That the union is disjoint (i.e., that mitosis \( {}_{i}\left( D\right) \ca...

Theorem 16.13 \( {\mathfrak{S}}_{w}\left( \mathbf{t}\right) = \mathop{\sum }\limits_{{D \in \mathcal{{RP}}\left( w\right) }}{\mathbf{t}}^{D} \), where \( {\mathbf{t}}^{D} = \mathop{\prod }\limits_{{\left( {i, j}\right) \in D}}{t}_{i} \) .
The proof, at the end of this section, comes down to an attempt at calculating \( {\partial }_{i}\left( {\mathbf{t}}^{D}\right) \) directly. Fixing the loose ends in this method requires the involution in Proposition 16.16, to gather terms together in pairs. The involution is defined by first partitioning rows \( i \) ...

Lemma 16.15 Let \( C \) be an intron in a reduced pipe dream. There is a unique intron \( \tau \left( C\right) \) satisfying the following two conditions.\n\n1. The sets of \( \boxplus \) columns are the same in \( C \) and \( \tau \left( C\right) \) .\n\n2. The number \( {c}_{i} \) of + tiles in row \( i \) of \( C \)...
Proof. First assume \( {c}_{i} > {c}_{i + 1} \) and work by induction on \( c = {c}_{i} - {c}_{i + 1} \) . If \( c = 0 \), then \( \tau \left( C\right) = C \) and the lemma is obvious. If \( c > 0 \), then consider the leftmost \( \boxplus \) column. Moving to the left from this column, there must be a column not equal...

Proposition 16.16 For each \( i \) there is an involution \( {\tau }_{i} : \mathcal{R}\mathcal{P}\left( w\right) \rightarrow \mathcal{R}\mathcal{P}\left( w\right) \) such that \( {\tau }_{i}^{2} = 1 \), and for all \( D \in \mathcal{R}\mathcal{P}\left( w\right) \), the following hold:\n\n1. \( {\tau }_{i}D \) agrees wi...
Proof. Let \( D \in \mathcal{R}\mathcal{P}\left( w\right) \) . Consider the union of all columns in rows \( i \) and \( i + 1 \) of \( D \) that are east of or coincide with column start \( {}_{i}\left( D\right) \) . Since the first and last tiles in this region (numbered as in Definition 16.14) are elbows, this region...

Theorem 16.18 The facets of the antidiagonal complex \( {\mathcal{L}}_{w} \) are the complements of the reduced pipe dreams for \( w \), yielding the prime decomposition\n\n\[ \n{J}_{w} = \mathop{\bigcap }\limits_{{D \in \mathcal{{RP}}\left( w\right) }}\left\langle {{x}_{ij} \mid \left( {i, j}\right) \text{ is a crossi...
It is convenient to identify each antidiagonal \( \underline{a} \in \mathbb{k}\left\lbrack \mathbf{x}\right\rbrack \) with the subset of the \( k \times \ell \) array of variables dividing \( \underline{a} \), just as we identify pipe dreams with their sets of + tiles. Then Theorem 16.18 can be equivalently rephrased a...
