We consider aspects of the relationship between nilpotent orbits in a semisimple real Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and those in its complexification $\mathfrak{g}_{\mathbb{C}}$. In particular, we prove that two distinct real nilpotent orbits…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of any characteristic except 2, and let $G = \GL_n(k)$ be the general linear group, regarded as an algebraic group over $k$. Using an algebro-geometric argument and Dynkin-Kostant theory for $G$ we…

An algebra group over a field $F$ is a group of the form $G = 1+J$ where $J$ is a finite-dimensional nilpotent associative $F$-algebra. A theorem of M. Boyarchenko asserts that, in the case where $F$ is a non-archimedean local field, every…
