SUMMARY:Gradient flows on totally nonnegative flag varieties
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: One can view a partial flag variety in C^n as an adjoint orbit inside the Lie algebra of n x n skew-Hermitian matrices. We use the orbit context to study the totally nonnegative part of a partial flag variety from an algebraic\, geometric\, and dynamical perspective. We classify gradient flows on adjoint orbits in various metrics which are compatible with total positivity. As applications\, we show how the classical Toda flow fits into this framework\, and prove that a new family of amplituhedra are homeomorphic to closed balls. This is joint work with Anthony Bloch.
