Abstract
We compute the fundamental group of an open Richardson variety in the manifold of complete flags that corresponds to a partial flag manifold. Rietsch showed that these $\log$ Calabi–Yau varieties underlie a Landau–Ginzburg mirror for the Langlands dual partial flag manifold, and our computation verifies a prediction of Hori for this mirror. It is $\log$ Calabi–Yau as it isomorphic to the complement of the Knutson–Lam–Speyer anti-canonical divisor for the partial flag manifold. We also determine explicit defining equations for this divisor.
