Cotangent Bundle to the Flag Variety - II

Algebraic Geometry 2017-05-10 v2 Representation Theory

Abstract

Let PP be a parabolic subgroup in SLn(C)SL_n(\mathbb C). We show that there is a SLn(C)SL_n(\mathbb C)-stable closed subvariety of an affine Schubert variety in an infinite dimensional partial Flag variety (associated to the Kac-Moody group SLn^(C){\widehat{SL_n}(\mathbb C)}) which is a natural compactification of the cotangent bundle to SLn(C)/PSL_n(\mathbb C)/P. As a consequence, we recover the Springer resolution for any orbit closure inside the variety of nilpotent matrices.
