Rook placements in $G_2$ and $F_4$ and associated coadjoint orbits
Abstract
Let be a maximal nilpotent subalgebra of a simple complex Lie algebra with root system . A subset of the set of positive roots is called a rook placement if it consists of roots with pairwise non-positive scalar products. To each rook placement and each map from to the set of nonzero complex numbers one can naturally assign the coadjoint orbit in the dual space . By definition, is the orbit of , where is the sum of root covectors multiplied by , . (In fact, almost all coadjoint orbits studied at the moment have such a form for certain and .) It follows from the results of Andr\`e that if and are distinct maps from to then and do not coincide for classical root systems . We prove that this is true if is of type , or if is of type and is orthogonal.
