As shown by A. Melnikov, the orbits of a Borel subgroup acting by conjugation on upper-triangular matrices with square zero are indexed by involutions in the symmetric group. The inclusion relation among the orbit closures defines a partial…

We relate the geometry of Schubert varieties in twisted affine Grassmannian and the nilpotent varieties in symmetric spaces. This extends some results of Achar-Henderson in the twisted setting. We also get some applications to the geometry…

Let $G$ be a classical linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field, and let $\mathfrak{n}$ denote the subset of nilpotent elements in its Lie algebra. In this paper we study a partial order on the $G$-orbits in $\mathfrak{n}$…

Motivated by geometric Langlands, we initiate a program to study the mirror symmetry between nilpotent orbit closures of a semisimple Lie algebra and those of its Langlands dual. The most interesting case is $B_n$ via $C_n$. Classically,…

We attach a Dixmier algebra B to the closure of any nilpotent orbit of G where G is GL(n,C), O(n,C) or Sp(2n,C). This algebra B is a noncommutative analog of the coordinate ring R of the orbit closure, in the sense that B has a G-invariant…

We compute the structure constants of topological symmetric orbifold theories up to third order in the large N expansion. The leading order structure constants are dominated by topological metric contractions. The first order interactions…

We prove the Strominger--Yau--Zaslow and topological mirror symmetries for parabolic Hitchin systems of types B and C. In contrast to type A, a geometric reinterpretation of Springer duality is necessary. Furthermore, unlike Hitchin's…
