Parabolic Homotopy Colimits and Coxeter Descents
Let $G$ be a compact, connected, simply connected semisimple Lie group with Weyl group $W$ and simple reflections $S$. For a simplicial complex $\mathcal K$ on $S$, form the homotopy colimit $X_{\mathcal K}(G)=\operatorname*{hocolim}_{I\in\mathcal K}G/G_I$ of standard partial flag manifolds. We compute its integral hom...
