In algebraic geometry, the flag bundle of a flag[1]

[math]\displaystyle{ E_{\bullet}: E = E_l \supsetneq \cdots \supsetneq E_1 \supsetneq 0 }[/math]

of vector bundles on an algebraic scheme X is the algebraic scheme over X:

[math]\displaystyle{ p: \operatorname{Fl}(E_{\bullet}) \to X }[/math]

such that [math]\displaystyle{ p^{-1}(x) }[/math] is a flag [math]\displaystyle{ V_{\bullet} }[/math] of vector spaces such that [math]\displaystyle{ V_i }[/math] is a vector subspace of [math]\displaystyle{ (E_i)_x }[/math] of dimension i.

If X is a point, then a flag bundle is a flag variety and if the length of the flag is one, then it is the Grassmann bundle; hence, a flag bundle is a common generalization of these two notions.

Construction

A flag bundle can be constructed inductively.
