Regular CW complex conjecture for the positive orthogonal Grassmannian
Let be the positive orthogonal Grassmannian, with cell decomposition
where the cells are indexed by matchings on , and the cell indexed by is homeomorphic to . Regular CW complex conjecture. The cell decomposition gives a regular CW complex structure on . Equivalently, the closure of each cell , as described by the closure relations, is homeomorphic to a closed -dimensional ball. This conjecture concerns the topology of the cell closures and is presented as analogous to a conjecture on positroid cell closures; the source does not state whether it has been resolved.
