          <dc:description>We introduce a new factorization for elements of the loop group LSL2 = SL2(  C ((lambda-1))). We then define a new decomposition for the flag manifold FL2 = LSL2/ B+ (=  SL2&amp;d14;/B&amp;d14; + ), into isomorphic overlapping cells. This allows us to examine globally the left vector field action of the homogeneous Heisenberg subalgebra   Hsl2   on FL2. On each cell of the quotient H -\FL2, we find coordinates for the modified non-linear Schrodinger (mNLS) hierarchy, with Miura, maps to NLS coordinates on the Grassmannian. We also find transformation rules relating coordinates across cells. The right vector field action of   n&amp;d14;-&amp;sub; sl2&amp;d14;  attaches to the coordinate ring of each cell an object e +/-2&amp;phis;. We show that this gives a special line bundle structure on H-\FL2. Finally, we define on each cell a Hamiltonian structure. This leads to a vertex algebra structure, and from the   n&amp;d14;- -action, a vertex algebra module structure, on each cell. We establish the compatibility of these structures across cells to show that H -\FL2 is a vertex variety, i.e. a variety whose structure sheaf is a sheaf of vertex algebras.</dc:description>
