Algebraic varieties in Birkhoff strata of the Grassmannian Gr(2)\mathrm{^{(2)}}: Harrison cohomology and integrable systems

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

Local properties of families of algebraic subsets WgW_g in Birkhoff strata Σ2gΣ_{2g} of Gr(2)^{(2)} containing hyperelliptic curves of genus gg are studied. It is shown that the tangent spaces TgT_g for WgW_g are isomorphic to linear spaces of 2-coboundaries. Particular subsets in WgW_g are described by the intergrable dispersionless coupled KdV systems of hydrodynamical type defining a special class of 2-cocycles and 2-coboundaries in TgT_g. It is demonstrated that the blows-ups of such 2-cocycles and 2-coboundaries and gradient catastrophes for associated integrable systems are interrelated.
