$mathbb P^1(mathbb C)$ inside $Gr(2,4)$












2












$begingroup$


Let $V$ be a vector space over $mathbb C$ of dimension $4$ and consider the Grassmanian $Gr(2,V)$. Fix an index $I=(1,3)$ and a complete flag of $V=langle e_1, e_2, e_3, e_4 rangle$ given by $ F =langle e_1 rangle subset langle e_1, e_2 rangle subset langle e_1, e_2, e_3 rangle subset V$.



The associated Schubert variety $X_I(F)$ is given by the span of the matrices



$$
begin{bmatrix}
1 & 0 \
0 & * \
0 & 1 \
0 & 0 \
end{bmatrix}
cup
begin{bmatrix}
1 & 0 \
0 & 1 \
0 & 0 \
0 & 0 \
end{bmatrix}
$$



Since it is $mathbb C cup mathbb C^0$ I'm wondering if it is a copy of $mathbb P^1(mathbb C)$ inside the Grassmanian in some way, or if this is not exact.



Thanks!

          Yes, this Schubert cycle is the set of $2$-planes containing a fixed line and contained in a fixed $3$-space. So it is, in particular, the set of $2$-planes in $Bbb C^3$ containing a fixed line. This is, alternatively, the set of $Bbb P^1$'s in $Bbb P^2$ containing a fixed point, and that is easily seen to be a $Bbb P^1$. (For example, choose a $Bbb P^1subsetBbb P^2$ not containing the fixed point $p$. Each line through $p$ meets that $Bbb P^1$ in a unique point, so the pencil of lines through $p$ is isomorphic to that $Bbb P^1$.)
