Rigidity and Quasi-Rigidity of Extremal Cycles in Hermitian Symmetric Spaces. (AM-153), Volume 153

Investigates the geometry of complex subvarieties of compact Hermitian symmetric spaces, particularly the complex Grassmannians, which are central to Schubert calculus and its applications to enumerative algebraic geometry. This book employs a combination of Hermitian differential geometry, calibrations, and classical moving frame constructions.
