Equivariant cohomology has become an indispensable tool in
algebraic geometry and in related areas including representation
theory, combinatorial and enumerative geometry, and algebraic
combinatorics. This text introduces the main ideas of the subject
for first- or second-year graduate students in mathematics, as well
as researchers working in algebraic geometry or combinatorics. The
first six chapters cover the basics: definitions via
finite-dimensional approximation spaces, computations in projective
space, and the localization theorem. The rest of the text focuses
on examples – toric varieties, Grassmannians, and homogeneous
spaces – along with applications to Schubert calculus and
degeneracy loci. Prerequisites are kept to a minimum, so that
one-semester graduate-level courses in algebraic geometry and
topology should be sufficient preparation. Featuring numerous
exercises, examples, and material that has not previously appeared
in textbook form, this book will be a must-have reference and
resource for both students and researchers for years to come.
