Abstract

This is the author's second paper treating the double coset problem for classical groups. Let GG be an algebraic group over an algebraically closed field KK. The double coset problem consists of classifying the pairs H,JH,J of closed connected subgroups of GG with finitely many (H,J)(H,J)-double cosets in GG. The critical setup occurs when one of H,JH,J, say HH, is reductive, and JJ is a parabolic subgroup. Assume that GG is a classical group, HH is simple and JJ is a maximal parabolic PkP_k, the stabilizer of a totally singular kk-space. Then most candidates have k=1k=1 or k=2k=2. The case k=1k=1 was solved in a previous paper and here we deal with k=2k=2. We solve this case by determining all faithful irreducible self-dual HH-modules VV, such that HH has finitely may orbits on totally singular 22-spaces of VV.
