Abstract

We study toric degenerations of opposite Schubert and Richardson varieties inside degenerations of Grassmannians and flag varieties. These degenerations are parametrized by matching fields in the sense of Sturmfels and Zelevinsky. We construct so-called restricted matching field ideals whose generating sets are understood combinatorially through tableaux. We determine when these ideals are toric and coincide with Gröbner degenerations of Richardson varieties using the well established standard monomial theory for Grassmannians and flag varieties.

Beyond Harnack Rigidity

The boundary of a plane amoeba is always contained in its contour, and equality is a characteristic feature of simple Harnack curves. We show that the converse fails, even under strong smoothness and nondegeneracy assumptions. For every two-dimensional lattice polygon, except unimodular triangles, we construct a smooth Newton-nondegenerate curve with smooth logarithmic critical locus and smooth embedded contour satisfying $\mathcal C(\mathscr A_f)=\partial\mathscr A_f$, although the curve is not Harnack. We also provide explicit primitive and nonprimitive families that are not torus-equivalent to simple Harnack curves. A concrete primitive example is certified by exact elimination and Sturm root counting. These results disprove contour--boundary rigidity and show that the contour as a set does not detect the real structure or the multiplicity of coincident critical sheets, thereby refining the compensation problem proposed by Lang, Shapiro, and Shustin.

Special Cohen--Macaulay sheaves on partial resolutions of rational surfaces singularities

We introduce the categories $\CM(X)$ and $\SCM(X)$ of reflexive sheaves on a minimal partial resolution $f\colon X \to \Spec R$ of a rational surface singularity $\Spec R$. The main result of this paper establishes that $\SCM(X)$ possesses a natural Frobenius structure, serving as a geometric counterpart to the algebraic Frobenius structure on special Cohen--Macaulay $R$-modules, introduced by Iyama--Wemyss and Iyama--Kalck--Wemyss--Yang. Utilizing this geometric framework, we establish an exact equivalence between $\SCM(X)$ and the category of special Cohen--Macaulay $R$-modules equipped with a specific exact structure, which induces a triangle equivalence between their stable categories. Consequently, this provides a direct, geometric proof of the Iyama--Kalck--Wemyss--Yang equivalence and yields a Buchweitz-type equivalence $\underline{\SCM}(X) \simeq D_{\sg}(X)$.
