In this note, we consider perverse sheaves on the nilpotent cone. We prove orthogonality relations for the equivariant category of sheaves on the nilpotent cone in a method similar to Lusztig's for character sheaves. We also consider…

A combing is a set of normal forms for a finitely generated group. This article investigates the language-theoretic and geometric properties of combings for nilpotent and polycyclic groups. It is shown that a finitely generated class 2…

If $G$ and $H$ are finitely generated residually nilpotent groups, then $G$ and $H$ are in the same nilpotent genus if they have the same lower central quotients (up to isomorphism). A stronger condition is that $H$ is para-$G$ if there…

In this paper, we construct and classify the special unipotent representations of a real reductive group attached to the principal nilpotent orbit. We give formulas for the $\mathbf{K}$-types, associated varieties, and Langlands parameters…

Let $G$ be a simple simply-connected algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ with $\mathfrak{g}={\rm Lie}(G)$. We discuss various properties of nilpotent orbits in $\mathfrak{g}$, which have previously…

In the paper "The Second cohomology of nilpotent orbits in classical Lie algebras, Kyoto J. Math. 60 (2020), no. 2, 717-799" by I. Biswas, P. Chatterjee and C. Maity homotopy types of nilpotent orbits are explicitly described in the case of…

We conjecture that the "nilpotent points" of Calogero-Moser space for reflection groups are parametrised naturally by the two-sided cells of the group with unequal parameters. The nilpotent points correspond to blocks of restricted…

Two finite groups $L_1$ and $L_2$ are compatible if there exists a finite group $G$ with isomorphic normal subgroups $N_1$ and $N_2$ such that $L_1\cong G/N_1$ and $L_2\cong G/N_2$. We prove a new sufficient condition for two groups to be…

Suppose that $A$ is a finite nilpotent group of odd order acting good in the sense of \cite{EGJ} on the group $G$ of odd order. Under some additional assumptions we prove that the Fitting height of $G$ is bounded above by the sum of the…

It is shown that finite groups in which the order of the product of every pair of elements of co-prime order is the product of the orders, is nilpotent.

It is well-known that a nilpotent n by n matrix B is determined up to conjugacy by a partition of n formed by the sizes of the Jordan blocks of B. We call this partition the Jordan type of B. We obtain partial results on the following…

This paper addresses various questions about pairs of similarity classes of matrices which contain commuting elements. In the case of matrices over finite fields, we show that the problem of determining such pairs reduces to a question…

It is known that there is a bijection between dominant weights of a complex reductive Lie group $G$ and the set $\mathcal{N}_{\mathcal{O},r}$ whose elements are of the form $(\mathcal{O},\rho)$, where $\mathcal{O}$ is a nilpotent orbit and…

The orbits of the group B of upper-triangular matrices acting on 2-nilpotent complex matrices via conjugation are classified via oriented link patterns, generalizing A. Melnikov's classification of the B-orbits on upper-triangular such…

We study central extensions of nilpotent loops by elementary abelian $p$-groups using normalized cocycles. By introducing an affine automorphism group acting on the full cocycle space, we obtain a direct correspondence between affine orbits…

Let G be a complex symplectic group. We introduce a G x (C ^x) ^{l + 1}-variety N_{l}, which we call the l-exotic nilpotent cone. Then, we realize the Hecke algebra H of type C_n ^(1) with three parameters via equivariant algebraic K-theory…

The cone of a classical group $G$ is an affine $G\times G$-variety. The aim of this note is to initiate its combinatorial study in the cases when $G$ is the complex orthogonal or symplectic group. The coordinate ring of the cone of $G$ is a…

Let G be a (real or complex) linear reductive algebraic group acting on an affine variety V. Let W be a subvariety. In this work we study how the G-orbits intersect W. We develop a criterion to determine when the intersection can be…

The Coulomb branches of certain 3-dimensional N=4 quiver gauge theories are closures of nilpotent orbits of classical or exceptional algebras. The monopole formula, as Hilbert series of the associated Coulomb branch chiral ring, has been…

In this note we give a closed expression for the number of points over finite fields of the Lusztig nilpotent variety associated to any quiver without edge loops, in terms of Kac's A-polynomial. We conjecture a similar result for quivers in…
