Trade Review

“The present book gives a detailed treatment of the standard monomial theory (SMT) for the Grassmannians and their Schubert subvarieties along with several applications of SMT. It can be used as a reference book by experts and graduate students who study varieties with a reductive group action such as flag and toric varieties.” (Valentina Kiritchenko, zbMATH 1343.14001, 2016)

“The book under review is more elementary; it is exclusively devoted to Grassmannians and their Schubert subvarieties. The book is divided into three parts. … This is a nicely written book, one that may appeal to students and researchers in related areas.” (Felipe Zaldivar, MAA Reviews, maa.org, December, 2015)
