Consider the flag manifold $mathbbF(a_1,dots,a_k)$ parametrizing flags of type $F^a_1subseteqdotssubseteq F^a_ksubseteq V$ in a vector spaces $V$ of dimension $n+1$, where $F^a_i$ is a sub-vector space of dimension $a_i$.



Then $mathbbF(a_1,dots,a_k)$ embeds in the product of Grassmannians $G(a_1,V)timesdotstimes G(a_k,V)$ which in turn embeds in $mathbbP^N_1timesdotstimesmathbbP^N_k$ via the product of the Plücker embeddings. Now we can embed $mathbbP^N_1timesdotstimesmathbbP^N_k$ in a projective space $mathbbP^N$ via the Segre embedding.



Finally, we get an embedding $mathbbF(a_1,dots,a_k)hookrightarrowmathbbP^N$. Is this embedding the minimal rational homogeneous embedding of $mathbbF(a_1,dots,a_k)$?

    What @VictorPetrov writes is completely correct. I just want to clarify one point. When you write "minimal", do you mean that the dimension of the projective space is minimal, or do you mean that the ample cone is the translate of the nef cone by the divisor class of this embedding (the embedding is the "vertex" of the ample cone)?

In general there is a more efficient way: $a_1,ldots,a_k$ determines a Young diagram, and you can realize the flag variety as the stabilizer of a point in the unique closed orbit of $mathbb P(U)$, where $U$ is the representation of $GL(V)$ corresponding to this diagram. Its dimension is given by the "hook formula".
