Cohomology of flag manifolds
Using the coadjoint orbit hierarchy [1] together with the cohomological splitting of some Hamiltonian bundles [2], we propose a new approach to the rational cohomology of some flag manifolds. This contribution will be a development of the article ``Cohomological Splitting of Coadjoint Orbits" (math.SG/ 0212384) that will be appear in Archiv der Mathematik. [1] V. Guillemin,  E. Lerman, S.
