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

We present a new proof of a part of the nilpotent orbit theorem for unipotent complex variations of Hodge structure. In our proof, the $L^2$ extension theorem of Ohsawa-Takegoshi type plays an essential role.

In this manuscript, we compute explicitly the Lusztig-Vogan bijection for local systems of some classical, special, nilpotent orbits. Using these results, we prove a conjecture of Achar and Sommers on regular functions of some covers of…

The first obstacle in building a Geometric Quantization theory for nilpotent orbits of a real semisimple Lie group has been the lack of an invariant polarization. In order to generalize the Fock space construction of the quantum mechanical…

Coulomb branches of a set of $3d\ \mathcal{N}=4$ supersymmetric gauge theories are closures of nilpotent orbits of the algebra $\mathfrak{so}(n)$. From the point of view of string theory, these quantum field theories can be understood as…

Let $\g$ be simple Lie algebra. We give a conceptual proof for the fact that the nilpotent orbits of height 3 are spherical. It is shown that if the highest root of $\g$ is fundamental, then $\g$ has a specific nilpotent orbit of height 3.…

Let $G$ be a simply connected algebraic group of type $B,C$ or $D$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. We construct a Springer correspondence for the dual vector space of the Lie algebra of $G$. In particular, we…

This is a continuation of math.AG/0408274, where we have described the relative movable cone for a Springer resolution of the closure of a nilpotent orbit in a complex simple Lie algebra. But, in general, the movable cone does not coincide…

We formulate and prove that there are "abundant" in nilpotent orbits in real semisimple Lie algebras, in the following sense. If S denotes the collection of hyperbolic elements corresponding the weighted Dynkin diagrams coming from…

In this paper we describe geometry of orbits of upper triangular matrices of nilpotent order 2 under conjugation by the group of upper triangular invertible matrices in terms of link patterns. Further we apply this description to the…

This paper explores 3d $\mathcal{N}=4$ quiver gauge theories whose moduli spaces represent nilpotent orbits, S\l odowy slices or, more generally, S\l odowy intersections, which span the Special Pieces of nilcones of Classical or Exceptional…

We capture the off-shell as well as the on-shell nilpotent Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) and anti-BRST symmetry invariance of the Lagrangian densities of the four (3 + 1)-dimensional (4D) (non-)Abelian 1-form gauge theories within the…

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 give the number of nilpotent orbits in the Lie algebras of orthogonal groups under the adjoint action of the groups over $\tF_{2^n}$. Let $G$ be an adjoint algebraic group of type $B,C$ or $D$ defined over an algebraically closed field…
