The Grassmannian page does talk about unoriented k-subspaces, so the notation here isn't yet consistent with that there.
It seems that in the litterature, both are called grassmannian, with definition depending on context.
On orientations: the Grassmannian page should point out that the orthogonal group acts transitively also on oriented k-subspaces, and so on: the distinction should be clarified there.

 Abstract of PhD Thesis (Zelenko Igor)-Mathematics
We introduce two principal symplectic invariants: the  generalized Ricci curvature, which is an invariant of the parametrized curve in Lagrange Grassmannian providing the curve with a natural projective structure, and a fundamental form, which is a degree four differential on the curve.
Further, we  give the estimates for the conjugate points of rank 1 curves in the Lagrangian Grassmannian of 4-dimensional symplectic space.
Finally, we apply our general theory of  curves in the Lagrange Grassmannian to the equivalence problem of rank 2 vector distributions on n-dimensional manifold and to the problem of geodesic equivalence of control systems.

 Grassmannian - Definition up Erdmond.Com
Supposing first that K is the real_number or complex_number field, the easiest approach to Grassmannians is probably to consider them as homogeneous spaces.
There can be other approaches: for example orthogonal_groups also act transitively, so that the Grassmannians also appear as coset spaces for those groups.
This shows directly that the real Grassmannians are compact (for the same result for complex Grassmannians one applies the unitary_group).

The determinant bundle and the tau function are constructed over the Grassmannian whereas in contrast to the usual constructions regularized determinants are involved.
For fixed elements of the isospectral set and the variation of the parameter x the second group which acts on the Grassmannian is derived.
It is then shown how a unified construction for both group acting on the Grassmannian has to be carried out by comparing it to the Fock bundle construction of 3 + 1 dimensional Dirac-Yang-Mills theories.

Present orthogonalization methods based on Davey's algorithm are shown to have a different differential-geometric interpretation: restriction of the ODE to a Grassmannian manifold.
Using properties of Grassmannian manifolds and their tangent spaces, a new Grassmannian integrator can be introduced which generalizes Davey's algorithm.
Furthermore it is shown that the compound-matrix method is a dual Grassmannian integrator: it uses Pluecker coordinates for integrating on a Grassmannian manifold, and this characterization suggests a new algorithm for constructing the induced ODE on the Grassmannian manifold.

In this article we study differential geometric properties of the most basic infinite dimensional manifolds arising from fermionic $(1+1)$-dimensional quantum field theory: the restricted Grass- mannian and the group of based loops in a compact simple Lie group.
We determine the Riemann curvature tensor and the (linear- ly) divergent expression corresponding to the Ricci curvature of the restricted Grassmannian after proving that the latter mani- fold is an isotropy irreducible Hermitian symmetric space.
Using the Gauss equation of the embedding of a based loop group into the restricted Grassmannian we show that the (conditional) Ricci curvature of a based loop group is proportional to its metric.

 Grassmannian Beamforming for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Wireless Systems   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
In this correspondence, a quantized maximum signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) beamforming technique is proposed where the receiver only sends the label of the best beamforming vector in a predetermined codebook to the transmitter.
Using the distribution of the optimal beamforming vector in independent identically distributed Rayleigh fading matrix channels, the codebook design problem is solved and related to the problem of Grassmannian line packing.
Results on the density of Grassmannian line packings are derived and used to develop bounds on the codebook size given a capacity or SNR loss.

It turns out that the study of symplectic invariants of curves in the Lagrange Grassmanian gives the way to construct feedback or gauge invariants of a wide class of smooth control systems and geometric structures.
In the present talk we would like to describe how to construct symplectic invariants of the curve in the Lagrange Grassmannian, using the notion of cross-ratio of four Lagrangian subspaces.
We will discuss two principal invariants: the generalized Ricci curvature, which is an invariant of the parametrized curve in Lagrange Grassamnnian providing the curve with a natural projective structure, and a fundamental form, which is a well-defined fourth degree differential on the curve.
