Deligne--Lusztig varieties, toric orbifolds, and the $q$-Klyachko algebra
Ruizhen Liu
Abstract
We investigate the geometry behind the $q$-Klyachko algebra, introduced by Nadeau--Tewari. When $q$ is a prime power, we show that the $q$-Klyachko algebra is the image of the pullback map on Chow rings $\mathrm{CH}(\mathrm{Fl}_{n+1})\to\mathrm{CH}(\mathrm{DL}_n)$, where $\mathrm{DL}_n\subseteq \mathrm{Fl}_n$ is a compactified Deligne--Lusztig variety inside the complete flag variety $\mathrm{Fl}_{n+1}$. When $q$ is a positive rational number, we establish a Kähler package for the $q$-Klyachko algebra through inputs from toric geometry.
