We classify states of four rebits, that is, we classify the orbits of the group $\widehat{G}(\mathbb R) = \mathrm{\mathop{SL}}(2,\mathbb R)^4$ in the space $(\mathbb R^2)^{\otimes 4}$. This is the real analogon of the well-known SLOCC…
We identify the $G(\mathbb R)$-orbits of the real locus $X(\mathbb R)$ of any spherical complex variety $X$ defined over $\mathbb R$ and homogeneous under a split connected reductive group $G$ defined also over $\mathbb R$. This is done by…
The adjoint action of a finite group of Lie type on its Lie algebra is studied. A simple formula is conjectured for the number of split semisimple orbits of a given genus. This conjecture is proved for type A, and partial results are…

For $G$ a connected, reductive group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of large characteristic, we use the canonical Springer isomorphism between the nilpotent variety of $\mathfrak{g}:=\mathrm{Lie}(G)$ and the unipotent variety of $G$…
Let $G$ be one of the ind-groups $GL(\infty)$, $O(\infty)$, $Sp(\infty)$, and $P_1,\dots, P_l$ be an arbitrary set of $l$ splitting parabolic subgroups of $G$. We determine all such sets with the property that $G$ acts with finitely many…
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…
Let g be a semisimple Lie algebra with h a Cartan subalgebra. The orbit method attempts to assign representations of g to orbits in g*. Orbital varieties are particular Lagrangian subvarieties of such orbits which should lead to highest…
Let $G$ be a group. The orbits of the natural action of $\mbox{Aut}(G)$ on $G$ are called "automorphism orbits" of $G$, and the number of automorphism orbits of $G$ is denoted by $\omega(G)$. In this paper the finite nonsolvable groups $G$…
In this note we propose a method to classify homogeneous nilpotent elements in a real $Z_m$-graded semisimple Lie algebra $g$. Using this we describe the set of orbits of homogeneous elements in a real $Z_2$-graded semisimple Lie algebra. A…

Let g be a semisimple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic 0 and O be a nilpotent orbit in g. Then Orb is a symplectic algebraic variety and one can ask whether it is possible to quantize $\Orb$ (in an…
We construct by geometric methods a noncommutative model E of the algebra of regular functions on the universal (2-fold) cover M of certain nilpotent coadjoint orbits O for a complex simple Lie algebra g. Here O is the dense orbit in the…
