Stability of the Chari-Pressley-Loktev bases for local Weyl modules of sl2[t]sl_2[t]

We prove stability of the Chari-Pressley-Loktev bases for natural inclusions of local Weyl modules of the current algebra $sl_2[t]$. These modules being known to be Demazure submodules in the level 1 representations of the affine Lie algebra $\widehat{sl_2}$, we obtain, by passage to the direct limit, bases for the level 1 representations themselves.Comment: 20 pages; minor revision

Equivariant Giambelli and determinantal restriction formulas for the Grassmannian

The main result of the paper is a determinantal formula for the restriction to a torus fixed point of the equivariant class of a Schubert subvariety in the torus equivariant integral cohomology ring of the Grassmannian. As a corollary, we obtain an equivariant version of the Giambelli formula.Comment: 16 pages, 3 figures, LaTex, uses epsfig and psfrag; for the revised version: title changed; Proof of Theorem 3 changed; 3 references added and 1 deleted; other minor change
