Abstract

The knowledge of cohomology of a manifold has shown to be quite relevant in various investigations: the question of vector fields, immersion and embedding dimension, and recently even in topological robotics. The method of Gröbner bases is applicable when the cohomology of the manifold is a quotient of a polynomial algebra. The mod 2 cohomology of the real flag manifold F(n1, n2, …, nr) is known to be isomorphic to a polynomial algebra modulo a certain ideal. Reduced Gröbner bases for these ideals are obtained in the case of manifolds F(1, 1, …, 1, n) including the complete flag manifolds (n = 1).
