We study in this paper the jet schemes of the closure of nilpotent orbits in a finite-dimensional complex reductive Lie algebra. For the nilpotent cone, which is the closure of the regular nilpotent orbit, all the jet schemes are…

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…

First, I construct an isomorphism between the categories of (topological) groups of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center and (topological) Lie rings of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center. That isomorphism allows us to…

Let G be a simply connected semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0 and let V be a rational simple G-module of finite dimension. If G/H \subset P(V) is a spherical orbit and if X is its closure,…

We prove that for any two projective symplectic resolutions $Z_1$ and $Z_2$ for a nilpotent orbit closure in a complex simple Lie algebra of classical type, then $Z_1$ is deformation equivalen to $Z_2$.

Let $G$ be an adjoint algebraic group of type $B$, $C$, or $D$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. We construct a Springer correspondence for the Lie algebra of $G$. In particular, for orthogonal Lie algebras in…

We look at the odd nilpotent orbits of osp(2n+1,2n), giving a combinatorial interpretation which enables us, via the square map, to explain the link with even nilpotent orbits. We then study the closure ordering of the odd nilpotent orbits.…

We show that there is a consistent polynomial quantization of the coordinate ring of a basic nilpotent coadjoint orbit of a semisimple Lie group. We also show, at least in the case of a nilpotent orbit in sl(2,R)*, that any such…

In this paper, we construct and classify the special unipotent representations of a real reductive group attached to the principal nilpotent orbit. We give formulas for the $\mathbf{K}$-types, associated varieties, and Langlands parameters…

The Coulomb branches of certain 3-dimensional N=4 quiver gauge theories are closures of nilpotent orbits of classical or exceptional algebras. The monopole formula, as Hilbert series of the associated Coulomb branch chiral ring, has been…

Let us fix a complex simple Lie algebra and its non-compact real form. This paper focuses on non-zero adjoint nilpotent orbits in the complex simple Lie algebra meeting the real form. We show that the poset consisting of such nilpotent…

The irreducible representations of complex semisimple algebraic groups with finitely many orbits are parametrized by graded simple Lie algebras. For the exceptional Lie algebras, Kraskiewicz and Weyman exhibit the Hilbert polynomials and…

In this paper, we compute the character formula of the Brylinski model for all classical nilpotent varieties $\overline{\mathcal{O}}$. As a consequence, one can compute the multiplicities of all $K-$types of the ring of regular functions…

For a group $G$, a {\it normalizer covering} of $G$ is a finite set of proper normalizers of some subgroups of $G$ whose union is $G$. We study $p$-groups ($p$ a prime) without a normalizer covering. As an application, we determine some…
