Abstract: The study of group orbits and their closures inside flag varieties has a long and storied history. The development of this topic touches on, and interweaves, fundamental ideas from Lie theory, algebraic geometry, representation theory, and algebraic combinatorics. The foundational objects of study in this area are the orbits of Borel subgroups and their closures, the Schubert varieties.
