Title: Schubert Varieties. Cohomology groups of the Grassmannian

Abstract: We’ll begin by introducing Schubert Varieties and Schubert Cells. After exploring a few examples, we’ll attempt to construct the cohomology groups of the Grassmannian and hopefully see some interplay between the combinatorics of young tableaux and the information encoded in the cohomology groups.
