Let G be a semi-simple Lie group and Q a parabilic subgroup of its complexification G^\mathbb C, then Z:=G^\mathbb C/Q is a compact complex homogeneous manifold. Moreover, G as well as K^\mathbb C, the complexification of the maximal…

It is shown that the cycle space of an arbitrary orbit of a non-Hermitian real form G in a flag manifold $Z=G^\mathbb C/Q$ of its complexification is naturally equivalent to a certain universal domain which depends only on G. This makes use…

Let $G$ be a complex simple direct limit group, specifically $SL(\infty;\mathbb{C})$, $SO(\infty;\mathbb{C})$ or $Sp(\infty;\mathbb{C})$. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a (generalized) flag in $\mathbb{C}^\infty$. If $G$ is $SO(\infty;\mathbb{C})$ or…

A real semisimple Lie group G_0 embedded in its complexification G has only finitely many orbits in any G-fag manifold Z = G/Q. The complex geometry of its open orbits D (flag domains) is studied from the point of view of compact complex…

A real form $G_0$ of a complex semisimple Lie group $G$ has only finitely many orbits in any given compact $G$-homogeneous projective algebraic manifold $Z=G/Q$. A maximal compact subgroup $K_0$ of $G_0$ has special orbits $C$ which are…

In [GM1], we defined a G_R-K_C invariant subset C(S) of G_C for each K_C-orbit S on every flag manifold G_C/P and conjectured that the connected component C(S)_0 of the identity would be equal to the Akhiezer-Gindikin domain D if S is of…

A real form $G$ of a complex semisimple Lie group $G^C$ has only finitely many orbits in any given $G^C$-flag manifold $Z=G^C/Q$. The complex geometry of these orbits is of interest, e.g., for the associated representation theory. The open…

In this survey, we gather together various results on the action of a real form of a complex semisimple Lie group on its flag manifolds. We start with the finiteness theorem of J.Wolf implying that at least one of the orbits is open. We…

A flag domain $D$ is an open orbit of a real form $G_0$ in a flag manifold $Z=G/P$ of its complexification. If $D$ is holomorphically convex, then, since it is a product of a Hermitian symmetric space of bounded type and a compact flag…

If G_0 is a real form of a complex semisimple Lie group G and Z is compact G-homogeneous projective algebraic manifold, then G_0 has only finitely many orbits on Z. Complex analytic properties of open G_0-orbits D (flag domains) are…

Let G be a real, connected, noncompact, semisimple Lie group, let K be a maximal compact subgroup of G, and let g=k+p be the corresponding Cartan decomposition of the complexified Lie algebra of G. Sequences of strongly orthogonal…

Let G be a discrete group which acts properly and isometrically on a complete CAT(0)-space X. Consider an integer d with d=1 or d greater or equal to 3 such that the topological dimension of X is bounded by d. We show the existence of a…

A flag domain of a real from $G_0$ of a complex semismiple Lie group $G$ is an open $G_0$-orbit $D$ in a (compact) $G$-flag manifold. In the usual way one reduces to the case where $G_0$ is simple. It is known that if $D$ possesses…

Flag domains are open orbits of noncompact real forms of complex semisimple Lie groups acting on flag manifolds. To each flag domain one can associate a compact complex manifold called the base cycle. The ampleness of the normal bundle of…

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,…

The group $G = GL_r(k) \times (k^\times)^n$ acts on $\mathbf{A}^{r \times n}$, the space of $r$-by-$n$ matrices: $GL_r(k)$ acts by row operations and $(k^\times)^n$ scales columns. A matrix orbit closure is the Zariski closure of a point…

We give explicit formulas for torus-equivariant fundamental classes of closed $K$-orbits on the flag variety $G/B$ when $G$ is one of the classical groups $SL(n,\C)$, $SO(n,\C)$, or $Sp(2n,\C)$, and $K$ is a symmetric subgroup of $G$. We…

The classification of G-spaces by Palais is refined for the case where the orbit space satisfies certain mild topological hypotheses. It is shown that when a sequence of such orbit spaces is "close" to a limit orbit space, in some suitable…
