Abstract

We prove that the divisor class group of any open Richardson variety in the Grassmannian is trivial. Our proof uses Nagata’s criterion, localizing the coordinate ring at a suitable set of Plücker coordinates. We prove that these Plücker coordinates are prime elements by showing that the subscheme they define is an open subscheme of a positroid variety. Our results hold over any field and over the integers.
