The subgroup K=GL_p x GL_q of GL_{p+q} acts on the (complex) flag variety GL_{p+q}/B with finitely many orbits. We introduce a family of polynomials that specializes to representatives for cohomology classes of the orbit closures in the…

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…

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…

Grothendieck polynomials, introduced by Lascoux and Sch\"utzenberger, are certain $K$-theory representatives for Schubert varieties. Symplectic Grothendieck polynomials, described more recently by Wyser and Yong, represent the $K$-theory…

The complex orthogonal and symplectic groups both act on the complete flag variety with finitely many orbits. We study two families of polynomials introduced by Wyser and Yong representing the $K$-theory classes of the closures of these…

Let G be a branch group (as defined by Grigorchuk) acting on a tree T. A parabolic subgroup P is the stabiliser of an infinite geodesic ray in T. We denote by $\rho_{G/P}$ the associated quasi-regular representation. If G is discrete, these…

The main result of this paper is a new parameterization of the orbits of a symmetric subgroup on a partial flag variety. The parameterization is in terms of certain Spaltenstein varieties, on one hand, and certain nilpotent orbits, on the…

Let $g$ be a semisimple Lie algebra over $\mathbb C$ and $k$ be a reductive in $g$ subalgebra. We say that a simple $g$-module $M$ is a $(g; k)$-module if as a $k$-module $M$ is a direct sum of finite-dimensional $k$-modules. We say that a…

Let $G$ be a split semisimple linear algebraic group over a field and let $X$ be a generic twisted flag variety of $G$. Extending the Hilbert basis techniques to Laurent polynomials over integers we give an explicit presentation of the…

The standard Poisson structures on the flag varieties G/P of a complex reductive algebraic group G are investigated. It is shown that the orbits of symplectic leaves in G/P under a fixed maximal torus of G are smooth irreducible locally…

In [Wyser-Yong '13] we introduced polynomial representatives of cohomology classes of orbit closures in the flag variety, for the symmetric pair $(GL_{p+q}, GL_p \times GL_q)$. We present analogous results for the remaining symmetric pairs…

We classify the GL_p x GL_q-orbits in the flag variety for GL_{p+q} with rationally smooth closure, showing that they are all either already closed or are pullbacks from orbits with smooth closure in a partial flag variety.

We consider the conjugation-action of an arbitrary upper-block parabolic subgroup of ${\rm GL}_n(\mathbf{C})$ on the variety of $x$-nilpotent complex matrices and translate it to a representation-theoretic context. We obtain a criterion as…

Let $G$ be the general linear group of the degree $n\geq 2$ over the field $\mathbb{K}=\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. In this article, we give a description of orbit decomposition of the multiple projective space $G^m/P^m$ under the diagonal…

Let $G$ be the indefinite unitary group $U(p,p)$, $H\simeq GL_{p}(\mathbb{C})$ its symmetric subgroup, $P_{S}$ the Siegel parabolic subgroup of $G$, and $B_{H}$ a Borel subgroup of $H$. In this article, we give a classification of the orbit…

A Schubert variety in the complete flag manifold $GL_n/B$ is Levi-spherical if the action of a Borel subgroup in a Levi subgroup of a standard parabolic has a dense orbit. We give a combinatorial classification of these Schubert varieties.…

We prove that any coadjoint orbit with real eigenvalues of a complex semisimple Lie group, equipped with the real part of the canonical holomorphic symplectic form, is symplectomorphic to the cotangent bundle of a (partial) flag manifold.…
