Representing flags of vector subbundles

33 Views Asked by At

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety and $F \to X$ be a free algebraic vector bundle of rank $n$. I know that there exists a correspondence between

  • Vector subbundles $E \subset F$ of rank $k$.
  • Morphisms $X \to G$, where $G$ is the Grassmannian of $k$-planes in $\mathbb A^n$.

Now suppose that I am interested in

  • Flags of vector subbundles $E_1 \subset ... \subset E_r \subset F$, where each $E_i$ is of rank $k_i$.

Is there a correspondence between these and

  • Commutative diagrams of morphisms $X \to G_i$ and $G_i \to G_{i+1}$, where each $G_i$ is the Grassmannian of $k_i$-planes in $\mathbb A^n$
