Self-maps of flag manifolds

Source abstract

Rationally, a map between flag manifolds is seen to be determined up to homotopy by the homomorphism it induces on cohomology. Two algebraic results for cohomology endomorphisms then serve (a) to determine those flag manifolds which have (nontrivial) self-maps that factor through a complex projective space, and (b) for a special class of flag manifolds, to classify the self-maps of their rationalizations up to homotopy.
