A closed subgroup $H$ of a connected reductive group $G$ is called $\textit{spherical}$ if a Borel subgroup in $G$ has an open orbit on $G/H$. We give a combinatorial characterization for a spherical subgroup to be contained in another one…

In the present paper we further the study of the compression cone of a real spherical homogeneous space $Z=G/H$. In particular we provide a geometric construction of the little Weyl group of $Z$ introduced recently by Knop and Kr\"otz. Our…

The finite orbits of the braid group action on Stokes matrices are studied and are shown to be the orbits on ordered sets of reflections, generating finite groups. All invariants of a reflection arrangement are determined. Determination of…

In this paper, the study of the global orbit pattern (gop) formed by all the periodic orbits of discrete dynamical systems on a finite set $X$ allows us to describe precisely the behaviour of such systems. We can predict by means of closed…

We consider actions of real Lie subgroups G of complex reductive Lie groups on Kaehlerian spaces. Our main result is the openness of the set of semistable points with respect to a momentum map and the action of G.

Let G be an affine algebraic group and let X be an affine algebraic variety. An action $G\times X \to X$ is called observable if for any G-invariant, proper, closed subset Y of X there is a nonzero invariant $f\in K[X]^G$ such that f(Y) =0.…

Let G be a finite group. The unit sphere in a finite-dimensional orthogonal G-representation motivates the definition of homotopy representations, due to tom Dieck. We introduce an algebraic analogue, and establish its basic properties…

For a $G$-variety $X$ with an open orbit, we define its boundary $\partial X$ as the complement of the open orbit. The action sheaf $S_X$ is the subsheaf of the tangent sheaf made of vector fields tangent to $\partial X$. We prove, for a…

Let $k$ be the algebraic closure of a finite field, $G$ a Chevalley group over $k$, $U$ the maximal unipotent subgroup of $G$. To each orthogonal subset $D$ of the root system of the group $G$ and each set $\xi$ of $|D|$ non-zero scalars…

For a semisimple algebraic group $G$ of adjoint type with Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ over the complex numbers, we establish a bijection between the set of closed orbits of the group $G \ltimes \mathfrak g^{\ast}$ acting on the variety of…

We study the quotient of a completion of a symmetric variety G/H under the action of H. We prove that this is isomorphic to the closure of the image of an isotropic torus under the action of the restricted Weyl group. In the case the…

We observe that any connected proper Lie groupoid whose orbits have codimension at most two admits a globally effective representation on a smooth vector bundle, i.e., one whose kernel consists only of ineffective arrows. As an application,…

We correct the proof of the main result of an earlier paper, parametrizing orbital varieties in a complex simple Lie algebra of type $B$ or $C$ in terms of domino tableaux and showing how to compute the orbital variety attached to an…
