Equations of some wonderful compactifications

Abstract: De Concini and Procesi have defined in [1] the wonderful compactification X of a symmetric space X = G/G σ where G is a semisimple adjoint group and G σ the subgroup of fixed points of G by an involution σ. It is a closed subvariety of a grassmannian of the Lie algebra g of G. In this paper, we prove that, when the rank of X is equal to the rank of G, the variety is defined by linear equations. The set of equations expresses the fact that the invariant alternate trilinear form w on g vanishes on the −1-eigensp… Show more

“…The corresponding morphism ε : Q [2] 3 → Gr(2, V 5 ) has a rational inverse: the intersection of a line in P(V 5 ) with Q 3 is a subscheme of length 2 of Q 3 , except when the line is contained in Q 3 . The morphism ε is therefore the blow up of the scheme of lines contained in Q 3 (which is the image of the Veronese embedding v 2 : P(V 4 ) ֒→ P(Sym 2 V 4 ) = P( 2 V 5 ); see [Hi,Section 6.2]).…”
