We check that the connected centralisers of nilpotent elements in the orthogonal and symplectic groups have Levi decompositions in even characteristic. This provides a justification for the identification of the isomorphism classes of the…

This paper studies nilpotent orbits in complex simple Lie algebras from the viewpoint of strongly visible actions in the sense of T. Kobayashi. We prove that the action of a maximal compact group consisting of inner automorphisms on a…

In Lie theory, a dense orbit in the unipotent radical of a parabolic group under the adjoint action is called a Richardson orbit. We define a quiver-graded version of Richardson orbits generalising the classical definition in the case of…

Suppose $G$ is a real reductive group. The determination of the irreducible unitary representations of $G$ is one of the major unsolved problem in representation theory. There is evidence to suggest that every irreducible unitary…

We show there exist representations of each maximal compact subgroup $K$ of the $p$-adic group $G=\mathrm{SL}(2,F)$, attached to each nilpotent coadjoint orbit, such that every irreducible representation of $G$, upon restriction to a…

This is a survey article prepared for the submission to "Handbook of moduli". The following topics are discussed: (i) Basic facts and examples of resolutions for nilpotent orbit (ii) Q-factorial terminalizations of nilpotent orbit closures…

For a non-compact simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ over $\mathbb{R}$, we denote by $\mathcal{O}^{\mathbb{C}}_{\min,\mathfrak{g}}$ the unique complex nilpotent orbit in $\mathfrak{g} \otimes_\mathbb{R} \mathbb{C}$ containing all minimal…

We compute the integral cohomology of the minimal non-trivial nilpotent orbit in a complex simple (or quasi-simple) Lie algebra. We find by a uniform approach that the middle cohomology group is isomorphic to the fundamental group of the…

We prove some results on the nilpotent orbit theorem for complex variation of Hodge structures.

Let $R$ be a finite commutative ring with unity $1_R$ and $k \in R$. Properties of one-sided $k$-orthogonal $n \times n$ matrices over $R$ are presented. When $k$ is idempotent, these matrices form a semigroup structure. Consequently new…

Let G be a Lie group, $g = Lie(G)$ - its Lie algebra, $g*$ - the dual vector space and $\widehat G$ - the set of equivalence classes of unitary irreducible representations of $G$. The orbit method [1] establishes a correspondence between…

In [2], an exhaustive construction is achieved for the class of all 4-dimensional unital division algebras over finite fields of odd order, whose left nucleus is not minimal and whose automorphism group contains Klein's four-group. We…

We present two methods for computing the rational singular locus of the closure of a nilpotent orbit in a complex semisimple Lie algebra and give a number of interesting examples.

In this paper we generalize an argument of Neukirch from birational anabelian geometry to the case of arithmetic curves. In contrast to the function field case, it seems to be more complicate to describe the position of decomposition groups…

In the present paper the adjoint action of the unitriangular group in the nilradical of a parabolic subalgebra is studied. We set up general conjectures on the construction of the field of invariants and the structure of orbits of maximal…

For a fixed dimension $N$ we compute the generating function of the numbers $t_N(n)$ (respectively $\bar{t}_N(n)$) of $PGL_{N+1}(k)$-orbits of rational $n$-sets (respectively rational $n$-multisets) of the projective space $\mathb{P}^N$…

We consider generalized $\Lambda$-structures on algebras and schemes over the ring of integers $\mathit{O}_K$ of a number field $K$. When $K=\mathbb{Q}$, these agree with the $\lambda$-ring structures of algebraic K-theory. We then study…

We study the transverse Poisson structure to adjoint orbits in a complex semi-simple Lie algebra. The problem is first reduced to the case of nilpotent orbits. We prove then that in suitably chosen quasi-homogeneous coordinates the…

Suppose that $G$ is a finite solvable group and $V$ is a finite, faithful and completely reducible $G$-module. Let $N$ be a nilpotent subgroup of $G$, then there exits $v \in V$ such that $|\bC_N(v)| \leq (|N|/p)^{1/p}$, where $p$ is the…

A complete description of the coadjoint orbits for A_{n-1}^{+}, the nilpotent Lie algebra of n-by-n strictly upper triangular matrices, has not yet been obtained, though there has been steady progress on it ever since the orbit method was…
