Abstract

Let kk denote a field with nontrivial discrete valuation. We assume that kk is complete with perfect residue field. Let GG be the group of kk-rational points of a reductive, linear algebraic group defined over kk. Let \gg denote the Lie algebra of GG. Fix rRr \in \R. Subject to some restrictions, we show that the set of distinguished degenerate Moy-Prasad cosets of depth rr (up to an equivalence relation) parametrizes the nilpotent orbits in \gg.
