2014年度第2回目の明治大学幾何セミナーを以下の要領で開催致しますのでお知らせ致します．

日程：10月23日（木）16:30 -18:00
場所：明治大学生田キャンパス第二校舎6号館6718

講演者：原田 芽ぐみ氏（McMaster University & 大阪市立大学）
題目：*Newton-Okounkov bodies, representation theory, and Bott-Samelson
varieties*
概要：The theory of Newton-Okounkov bodies is a far-reaching generalization of
the theory of toric varieties. In particular, it can associate to any
complex projective variety X a convex body (which is a rational polytope in
many cases) of dimension equal to the complex dimension of X; in the case
when X is a toric variety, the convex body is exactly the usual Newton
polytope. Moreover, in a recent paper, Kaveh showed that the string
polytopes in geometric representation theory are special cases of
Newton-Okounkov bodies associated to flag varieties G/B. Hence the theory
of Newton-Okounkov bodies is naturally related to many interesting
questions in representation theory and Schubert calculus. The Bott-Samelson
varieties give resolutions of singularities of Schubert varieties and are
central in the study of the geometry of G/B. I will give an overview of
this subject in relation to Newton-Okounkov bodies and discuss some recent
and ongoing work, as well as some open questions.
