Title: Resolutions of singularities of Schubert and Richardson varieties
Abstract: In the first part of this talk I will present a combinatorial model describing resolutions of singularities of Schubert varieties, namely tilings by 2-dimensional zonotopes. This is based on joint work with Pechenik, Tenner and Yong. We will then discuss resolutions of singularities for Richardson varieties and talk about the moment polytope of these varieties. In particular, I will give a description of the toric variety of the associahedron.
