This short note is a supplement to the previous article with the same title. Here we treat a conical symplectic variety obtained as a finite covering of a (not necessarily normal) nilpotent orbit closure of a complex semisimple Lie algebra.

We organize the nilpotent orbits in the exceptional complex Lie algebras into series using the triality model and show that within each series the dimension of the orbit is a linear function of the natural parameter a=1,2,4,8, respectively…

We use properties of symplectic capacities that were recently defined by Hutchings to obtain upper bounds on the minimal action of Reeb orbits on fiberwise star-shaped hypersurfaces $\Sigma \subset T^*S^2$. In addition, we introduce the…

We prove that there do not exist quasi-isometric embeddings of connected nonabelian nilpotent Lie groups equipped with left invariant Riemannian metrics into a metric measure space satisfying the RCD(0,N), with N > 1. In fact, we can prove…

In this article, we give probabilistic versions of Sobolev embeddings on any Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. More precisely, we prove that for natural probability measures on $L^2(M)$, almost every function belong to all spaces $L^p(M)$,…

Consider the quotient of a Hilbert space by a subgroup of its automorphisms. We study whether this orbit space can be embedded into a Hilbert space by a bilipschitz map, and we identify constraints on such embeddings.

Let $\FRAK{g}$ be a classical simple Lie superalgebra. To every nilpotent orbit $\cal O$ in $\FRAK{g}_0$ we associate a Clifford algebra over the field of rational functions on $\cal O$. We find the rank, $k(\cal O)$ of the bilinear form…

Let $G$ be a simple simply-connected algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ with $\mathfrak{g}={\rm Lie}(G)$. We discuss various properties of nilpotent orbits in $\mathfrak{g}$, which have previously…

For a non-compact simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ over $\mathbb{R}$, we denote by $\mathcal{O}^{\mathbb{C}}_{\min,\mathfrak{g}}$ the unique complex nilpotent orbit in $\mathfrak{g} \otimes_\mathbb{R} \mathbb{C}$ containing all minimal…
