We introduce a relation on real conjugacy classes of SL(2)-orbits in a Mumford-Tate domain D which is compatible with natural partial orders on the sets of nilpotent orbits in the corresponding Lie algebra and boundary orbits in the compact…

We show that the definition of unipotent (resp. nilpotent) pieces for classical groups given by Lusztig (resp. Lusztig and the author) coincides with the combinatorial definition using closure relations on unipotent classes (resp. nilpotent…

Suppose that $G$ is a finite group and $k$ is a field of characteristic $p>0$. We consider the complete cohomology ring $\mathcal{E}_M^* = \sum_{n \in \mathbb{Z}} \widehat{Ext}^n_{kG}(M,M)$. We show that the ring has two distinguished…

We prove that for a simply laced group, the closure of the Borel conjugacy class of any nilpotent element of height $2$ in its conjugacy class is normal and admits a rational resolution. We extend this, using Frobenius splitting techniques,…

This is a sequel to \cite{osy} and \cite{sxy}. Associated with $G:=\GL_n$ and its rational representation $(\rho, M)$ over an algebraically closed filed $\bk$, we define an enhanced algebraic group $\uG:=G\ltimes_\rho M$ which is a product…

We are interested in Poisson structures transverse to nilpotent adjoint orbits in a complex semi-simple Lie algebra, and we study their polynomial nature, introduced by R.Cushman and M.Roberts. Furthermore, in the case of sl(n), we…

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…

We give a sufficient condition for isometric actions to have the congruency of orbits, that is, all orbits are isometrically congruent to each other. As applications, we give simple and unified proofs for some known congruence results, and…

We prove the existence of at least $cl(M)$ periodic orbits for certain time dependant Hamiltonian systems on the cotangent bundle of an arbitrary compact manifold $M$. These Hamiltonians are not necessarily convex but they satisfy a certain…

We consider the conjugation-action of an arbitrary upper-block parabolic subgroup of GL_n(C) on the variety of x-nilpotent complex matrices. We obtain a criterion as to whether the action admits a finite number of orbits and specify a…

We formulate and prove that there are "abundant" in nilpotent orbits in real semisimple Lie algebras, in the following sense. If S denotes the collection of hyperbolic elements corresponding the weighted Dynkin diagrams coming from…

We first show the closure of the minimal nilpotent adjoint orbit Omin^{D_n} in so_{2n} is isomorphic to the affinization of T^*(SL_{n-1}/[P,P]) where P is the parabolic subgroup P_{(1,1,n-3)} of SL_{n-1}(C). Then we prove that the closure…
