Parabolic subalgebras of semi-simple Lie algebras decompose as $\frak{p}=\frak{m}\oplus\frak{n}$ where $\frak{m}$ is a Levi factor and $\frak{n}$ the corresponding nilradical. By Richardsons theorem, there exists an open orbit under the…

We consider parabolic subgroups of a general algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ whose Levi part has exactly $t$ factors. By a classical theorem of Richardson, the nilradical of a parabolic subgroup $P$ has an open dense…

Parabolic subalgebras $\frak{p}$ of semisimple Lie algebras define a $\Bbb{Z}$-grading of the Lie algebra. If there exists a nilpotent element in the first graded part of $\frak{g}$ on which the adjoint group of $\frak{p}$ acts with a dense…

Seaweed Lie algebras are a natural generalisation of parabolic subalgebras of reductive Lie algebras. The well-known Richardson Theorem says that the adjoint action of a parabolic group has a dense open orbit in the nilpotent radical of its…

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…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p > 0$. We consider connected reductive subgroups $X$ of $G$ that contain a given distinguished unipotent element $u$ of $G$. A result of…

We consider the conjugation-action of the Borel subgroup of the symplectic or the orthogonal group on the variety of nilpotent complex elements of nilpotency degree $2$ in its Lie algebra. We translate the setup to a…

Let $\mathcal{L}$ be finite dimensional restricted Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteritic $p>3$. A finite dimensional restricted $\mathcal{L}$-module $V$ is called Richardson if $V$ is faithful and there exists…

If G is a connected linear algebraic group over the field k, a Levi factor of G is a reductive complement to the unipotent radical of G. If k has positive characteristic, G may have no Levi factor, or G may have Levi factors which are not…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic and G a simple algebraic group defined over k. Under the assumption that the characteristic is a good prime for G, we determine a maximal G-stable subvariety U' of the…

We investigate positive-dimensional closed reductive subgroups of almost simple algebraic groups containing a regular unipotent element. Our main result states that such subgroups do not lie inside proper parabolic subgroups unless possibly…

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…

Let $G$ be a reductive group over a field $k$ of characteristic $\neq 2$, let ${\mathfrak g}=\Lie(G)$, let $\theta$ be an involutive automorphism of $G$ and let ${\mathfrak g}={\mathfrak k}\oplus{\mathfrak p}$ be the associated symmetric…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field. A closed subgroup $H$ of $G$ is called $G$-completely reducible ($G$-cr) if, whenever $H$ is contained in a parabolic subgroup $P$ of $G$, it is contained in a Levi…

Decomposition classes provide a way of partitioning the Lie algebras of an algebraic group into equivalence classes based on the Jordan decomposition. In this paper, we investigate the decomposition classes of the Lie algebras of connected…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$, and assume that $p$ is a very good prime for $G$. Let $P$ be a parabolic subgroup whose unipotent radical $U_P$ has nilpotence class less than…

We give a constructive account of the fundamental ingredients of Poisson Lie theory as the basis for a description of the classical double group $D$. The double of a group $G$ has a pointwise decomposition $D\sim G\times G^*$, where $G$ and…

We study the action of a real reductive group $G$ on a real submanifold $X$ of a Kahler manifold $Z$. We suppose that the action of a compact connected Lie group $U$ with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{u}$ extends holomorphically to an action of…

The twist deformations for simple Lie algebras U(g) whose twisting elements F are known explicitly are usually defined on the carrier subspace injected in the Borel subalgebra B^+(g). We solve the problem of creating the parabolic twist F_P…
