  Flag manifold - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, a flag manifold (or flag variety) is the set of all flags in a finite-dimensional vector space V.
The flag variety on V is naturally a projective variety.
The standard flag associated with this basis is the one where the ith subspace is spanned by the first i vectors of the basis.

This flag, however, had its own problem: when the battlefield was windless, it was sometimes mistaken for a flag of truce or surrender because the white field often concealed the first quarter.
Most famously, the "Bonnie Blue Flag" (which actually dated from the short-lived Republic of West Florida in 1810), was used as an early flag of Texas in 1836, and was used as an unofficial flag during the early months of 1861.
The battle flag of the Confederacy is square, of various sizes for the different branches of the service: 48 inches square for the infantry, 36 inches for the artillery, and 30 inches for the cavalry.

 Red Flag
Red Flag, a realistic combat training exercise involving the air forces of the United States and its allies, is conducted on Nevada's vast bombing and gunnery ranges.
The Air Force now schedules Red Flag participation to coincide with AEF rotations, so units are able to train night and day in a realistic environment and with the same units they will fly with while deployed.
Red Flag was established in 1975 as one of the initiatives directed by Gen. Robert J. Dixon, then commander of Tactical Air Command, to better prepare forces for combat.

 Red Flag
From the very start--and that date was Nov. 29, 1975--Red Flag has been at the forefront of the Air Force drive to dominate the enemy in air combat operations.
The first Red Flag exercise, which took place 25 years ago this month, opened the pathway to a radically new type of fighter training, one that in no small way helped forge the professional Air Force that today sets the world standard.

These formulas are concerned with: (1) the hyperplane section of a Schubert variety (a Monk type formula); (2) the restriction of a dominant line bundle to a Schubert variety; (3) the multiplication of an arbitrary Schubert class by a special one, which is pulled back from a Grassmannian projection (a Pieri type formula).

In my thesis I studied Hessenberg varieties, which are subvarieties of the full flag variety parametrized by a Lie algebra element and a certain subspace of the Lie algebra.
Special examples of Hessenberg varieties include the Springer fiber (a variety closely tied to representation theory), the Peterson variety (related to the quantum cohomology of the flag variety), the space of Hessenberg matrices for a linear operator M (important in numerical analysis), and the entire flag variety itself.
Hessenberg varieties are not pure dimensional, to appear in the special issue of Pure and Applied Mathematics Quarterly dedicated to Robert MacPherson's 60th birthday.

A hypertoric variety is a quaternionic analogue of a toric variety.
Just as the topology of toric varieties is closely related to the combinatorics of polytopes, the topology of hypertoric varieties interacts richly with the combinatorics of hyperplane arrangements and matroids.
Using finite field methods analogous to those used by Kazhdan and Lusztig in their study of Schubert varieties, we obtain combinatorial descriptions of the Betti numbers of hypertoric varieties, both for ordinary cohomology in the smooth case and intersection cohomology in the singular case.
