The non-transverse monotone conjecture for Grassmannian Schubert problems
Let with , and let be a Grassmannian Schubert problem for . Let be monotone with respect to the problem, meaning that the unique descents of the Grassmannian permutations vary monotonically along an orientation of . Non-transverse monotone conjecture. The intersection
is transverse. The source explains that this conjecture implies the stronger reality conjecture, is supported by extensive computation, and remains open.
