AbstractFor the Grothendieck group of a split simple linear algebraic group, the twisted γ-filtration provides a useful tool for constructing torsion elements in -rings of twisted flag varieties. In this paper, we construct a non-trivial torsion element in the γ-ring of a complete flag variety twisted by means of a PGO-torsor. This generalizes the construction in the HSpin case previously obtained by Zainoulline.

We apply ideas from crystal theory to affine Schubert calculus and flag Gromov-Witten invariants. By defining operators on certain decompositions of elements in the type-$A$ affine Weyl group, we produce a crystal reflecting the internal structure of Specht modules associated to permutation diagrams. We show how this crystal framework can be applied to study the product of a Schur function with a $k$-Schur function. Consequently, we prove that a subclass of 3-point Gromov-Witten invariants of complete flag varieties for $\mathbb{C}^n$ enumerate the highest weight elements under these operators.
Nous appliquons des idées provenant de la théorie des bases cristallines au calcul de Schubert affine et aux invariants de drapeaux de Gromov–Witten. Nous définissons des opérateurs sur certaines décompositions d’éléments de groupes de Weyl affines en type $A$ afin de construire une base cristalline encodant la structure interne des modules de Specht associés aux diagrammes de permutations. Nous montrons comment la structure de cristal permet d’étudier le produit d’une fonction de Schur avec une $k$-fonction de Schur. En conséquence, nous prouvons que la sous-classe des invariants de 3-points de Gromov–Witten d’une variété complète de drapeaux complets pour $\mathbb{C}^n$ énumère les éléments de poids maximaux pour ces opérateurs.
AbstractWe investigate the long-standing problem of finding a combinatorial rule for the Schubert structure constants in the $K$-theory of flag varieties (in type $A$). The Grothendieck polynomials of A. Lascoux–M.-P. Schützenberger (1982) serve as polynomial representatives for $K$-theoretic Schubert classes; however no positive rule for their multiplication is known in general. We contribute a new basis for polynomials (in $n$ variables) which we call glide polynomials, and give a positive combinatorial formula for the expansion of a Grothendieck polynomial in this basis. We then provide a positive combinatorial Littlewood–Richardson rule for expanding a product of Grothendieck polynomials in the glide basis. Our techniques easily extend to the $\beta$-Grothendieck polynomials of S. Fomin–A. Kirillov (1994), representing classes in connective $K$-theory, and we state our results in this more general context.
