On the loci of morphisms from $\mathbb{P}^1$ to $G(r,n)$ with fixed splitting type of the restricted universal sub-bundle or quotient bundle (1908.09978v2)

Abstract: Let $n\geq 4$, $2 \leq r \leq n-2$ and $e \geq 1$. We show that the intersection of the locus of degree $e$ morphisms from $\mathbb{P}^1$ to $G(r,n)$ with the restricted universal sub-bundles having a given splitting type and the locus of degree $e$ morphisms with the restricted universal quotient-bundle having a given splitting type is non-empty and generically transverse. As a consequence, we get that the locus of degree $e$ morphisms from $\mathbb{P}^1$ to $G(r,n)$ with the restricted tangent bundle having a given splitting type need not always be irreducible.
