The following question was the main motivation of this paper : which are the necessary and sufficient conditions for a non-singular subvariety of a Grassmann variety to have an ample normal bundle. Knowing that a non-singular subvariety of a Grassmann variety has an ample normal bundle we can apply on it several well-known theorems.

The theory of Plücker coordinates and Grassmann varieties is well-developed and well-known among the algebraic geometers. It gives a one-to-one correspondence between the set of all subspaces of a given dimension in the ambient projective space and the set of points on a certain projective algebraic variety called a Grassmann variety. The unacquainted can find the theory discussed in detail in Hodge-Pedoe [1, Chapters VII and XIV].

AbstractA special linear Grassmann variety $\text{SGr}(k,n)$ is the complement to the zero section of the determinant of the tautological vector bundle over $\text{Gr}(k,n)$. For an $SL$-oriented representable ring cohomology theory $A^{\ast }(-)$ with invertible stable Hopf map ${\it\eta}$, including Witt groups and $\text{MSL}_{{\it\eta}}^{\ast ,\ast }$, we have $A^{\ast }(\text{SGr}(2,2n+1))\cong A^{\ast }(pt)[e]/(e^{2n})$, and $A^{\ast }(\text{SGr}(k,n))$ is a truncated polynomial algebra over $A^{\ast }(pt)$ whenever $k(n-k)$ is even. A splitting principle for such theories is established. Using the computations for the special linear Grassmann varieties, we obtain a description of $A^{\ast }(\text{BSL}_{n})$ in terms of homogeneous power series in certain characteristic classes of tautological bundles.

By an algebraic homogeneous space, we mean the factor space X = G/P, where G is a simply-connected, complex, semi-simple Lie group and P is a parabolic subgroup of G. Many typical manifolds such as the projective spaces and the Grassmann varieties belong to this class of manifolds. For instance, the Grassmann variety G(k, n) can be expressed as SL(n + 1, C)/P, where P is a maximal parabolic subgroup of SL(n + 1, C) leaving a suitable k + 1 dimensional subspace invariant. In this paper, we devote ourselves to study the Bruhat decomposition of an algebraic homogeneous space X = G/P.
