Thesetwo identities imply the statement of the lemma. rThis lemma allows us to describe explicitly the action of si and hence of Ai on anypolynomial in the first Chern classes. Indeed,since for any weight lk we have si l ¼ l þ kaifor someintegerk,wecancomputeclÞ¼ c1 LðlÞ n Lðai Þ as a power series inLðs1ic1 LðlÞ and c1 Lðai Þ using the formal group law. This will be used in the proof of Proposition 4.3 below and in Subsection 5.1.4.
Chevalley–Pieri formulasA key ingredient for the classical Schubert calculus is the Chevalley–Pieri formula forthe product of the Schubert cycle with the first Chern class of the line bundle on X , see e.g.[1], Proposition 4.1, and [10], Proposition4.2. We now establish analogous formulas for theproducts of ZI and RI with c1 LðlÞ (without using that ZI ¼ RI ). At the end of this section, we explain why in the case of algebraic cobordism this alone is not enough to showthat ZI ¼ RI , hence justifying our di¤erent approach of the previous two sections.By LðDÞ denote the line bundle corresponding to the divisor D.

Geometric Chevalley–Pieri formula(1) for Bott–Samelson resolutions: In the Picard group of RI we haverI LðlÞ ¼lNLðRI j Þ ðl; bj Þj¼1where b j ¼ sl sjþ1 aj .(2) for Schubert cycles ([1], Proposition 4.1, [10], Proposition 4.4, [8]): In the Chowring of X we havePc1 LðlÞ XI ¼ ðl; bj ÞXI jjwhere the sum is taken over j A f1; . . . ; lg for which the decomposition defined by I j isreduced.The first part of this proposition was proved in [4], Proposition 4, in the topologicalsetting (for flag varieties of compact Lie groups). It is not hard to check that the proof carries over to algebro-geometric setting. We instead provide a shorter proof along the samelines. Our proof is based on the following lemma:Lemma 4.2 ([10], Proposition 2.1).
Let p : RI ! RI l be the natural projection (coming from the fact that we defined RI as a projective bundle over RI l ). Then we have an isomorphismrI LðlÞ G p rIl Lðsl lÞ n LðRI l Þ ðl; al Þof line bundles on RI .Proposition 4.1(1) now follows from Lemma 4.2 by induction on l. The base l ¼ 1,that is r1 LðlÞ ¼ OP 1 ð1Þ ðl; a1 Þ , follows from the fact that r1 : R1 ! X maps R1 isomorphicallyto P1 =B G P 1 , which can be regarded as the flag variety for SL2 .
Then the weight l restrictedto SL2 is equal to ðl; a1 Þ times the highest weight of the tautological representation ofSL2 , which corresponds to the line bundle OP 1 ð1Þ on P 1 .

We now briefly recall this algorithm. By the projection formula we have c1 LðlÞ ZI ¼ ðrI Þ c1 rI LðlÞ :Note that the usual projection formula with respect to smooth projective morphismsf : X ! Y holds for algebraic cobordism as well. This follows from the definition of products via pull-backs along the diagonal and the base change axiom (A2) of [14] applied todiagpidthe cartesian square obtained from Y !

Instead, we willprove a more explicit formula for c1 LðlÞ ZI (see formula (5.1) below) using our algebraicChevalley–Pieri formula together with Theorem 3.2.Proposition 4.3.

Nextwe show that c1 LðlÞ c1 Lðs1 lÞ;c1 LðlÞ A1 A1 c1 Lðs1 lÞ ¼c1 Lða1 Þwhere both sides are regarded as operators on W ðX Þ.

TheChow ring case follows immediately from the cobordism case sincec1 LðlÞ c1 Lðsj lÞ¼ ðl; aj Þc1 Lðaj Þin the Chow ring. The last identity holds because the formal group law for the Chow ring isadditive, and hence c1 LðlÞ c1 Lðsj lÞ ¼ ðl; aj Þc1 Lðaj Þ . rThe second part of this proposition was proved in [1] by more involved calculations.A calculation similar to ours was used in [17] to deduce a combinatorial Chevalley–Pieriformula for K-theory.
It would be interesting to find an analogous combinatorial interpretation of our Chevalley–Pieri formula in the cobordism case.Note that in the case of Chow groups, the algebraic Chevalley–Pieri formula forAl . . . A1 Re is exactly the same as the geometric one for the Schubert cycle XI .
Togetherwith the Borel presentation this easily implies that the polynomial Al . . . A1 Re representsthe Schubert cycle XI whenever I defines a reduced decomposition [1]. Indeed, we canproceed by the induction on l. Algebraic and geometric Chevalley–Pieri formulas allow usto compute the intersection indices of Al . . . A1 Re and of XI , respectively, with the productof k first Chern classes, and the result is the same in both cases by the induction hypothesis(for all k > 0Þ. By the Borel presentation we know that the products of first Chern classesdLspanCH i ðX Þ. Hence, by the non-degeneracy of the intersection form on CH ðX Þ (thati¼1is, by Poincaré duality) we have that Al .
. . A1 Re XI must lie in CH d ðX Þ ¼ Z½ pt (that is,dLin the orthogonal complement toCH i ðX Þ). This is only possible if Al . . . A1 Re XI ¼ 0i¼1(unless l ¼ 0, which is the induction base). Note that the only geometric input in this proofis the geometric Chevalley–Pieri formula.In the cobordism case, it is not immediately clear why geometric and algebraicChevalley–Pieri formulas are the same (though, of course, it follows from Theorem 3.2).But even without using RI ¼ ZI , it might be possibleto showPthat both formulas havethe same structure coe‰cients, that is, if c1 LðlÞ ZI ¼aJ ZJ then necessarilyJHIPc1 LðlÞ RI ¼aJ RJ with the same coe‰cients aJ A L.
However, this does not lead toJHIthe proof of RI ¼ ZI as in the case of the Chow ring. The reason is that even though thereis an analog of Poincaré duality for the cobordism rings of cellular varieties, this only yieldsan equality RI ¼ ZI up to a multiple of ½ pt, which is not enough to carry out the desiredinduction argument. For the Chow ring, Poincaré duality also yields only an equality upto the class of a point, but unless I ¼ j, the di¤erence RI ZI (where ZI now means theSchubert cycle and not the Bott–Samelson class) cannot be a non-zero multiple of ½ ptbecause the coe‰cient ring CH ð½ ptÞ ¼ CH ðkÞ G Z is concentrated in degree zero, andhas hence no non-zero elements in the corresponding degree l d.
However, for algebraiccobordism, the coe‰cient ring W ðkÞ G L does contain plenty of elements of negative degree, so one cannot deduce RI ¼ ZI .Bereitgestellt von | Universitätsbibliothek Regensburg (Universitätsbibliothek Regensburg)Angemeldet | 172.16.1.226Heruntergeladen am | 01.03.12 17:4678Hornbostel and Kiritchenko, Schubert calculus for algebraic cobordism5. Computations and examplesUntil now, we used the formal group law of algebraic cobordism (i.e., the universalone) as little as possible in order to make our presentation simpler.
In this section, we makethe results of the previous section more explicit using this formal group law. In particular,we give an explicit formula for the products of a Bott–Samelson resolution with the firstChern class of a line bundle in terms of other Bott–Samelson resolutions (see formula(5.1) below). Using this formula, we give an algorithm for computing the product of twoBott–Samelson resolutions.First, we show that the operator A from Section 2 and the operator A^a from Section 3are well-defined.We use the notation of Subsection 2.1, so F ðu; vÞ is the universal formal grouplaw andwðuÞ is the inverse for the universal formal group law defined by the identity F u; wðuÞ ¼ 0.1 is well defined on W ðX Þ½½y1 ; y2 , it isTo show that the operator A ¼ ð1 þ sÞ F y1 ; wðy2 Þenough to show that AðmÞ is a formal power series for any monomial m ¼ y1k1 y2k2 .
