Schubert Calculus via Hasse-Schmidt Derivations

math.AGarXiv:math/0504293

Abstract

A natural Hasse-Schmidt derivation on the exterior algebra of a free module realizes the (small quantum) cohomology ring of the grassmannian Gk(n) as a ring of operators on the exterior algebra of a free module of rank n. Classical Pieri's formula can be interpreted as Leibniz's rule enjoyed by special Schubert cycles with respect to the wedge product.
