Hodge rigidity of Chern classes

In this paper, we study the homogeneous components of the Chern–Schwartz–MacPherson (CSM) classes of Schubert cells. We prove that, under suitable conditions, each such component is represented by an irreducible subvariety. In particular, our result extends Huh’s result \cite{Huh} by relaxing the regularity assumption on log resolutions. As a consequence, the conclusion holds for all cominuscule Schubert cells of classical type and for a large family of exceptional cases. We also obtain analogous results for certain Schubert varieties in symplectic Grassmannians and flag varieties.
